Where? When? Which game?

Can't be a World Series game so maybe an All-Star game in an American League park (Musial has dark blue road cap). That background grating is throwing me off, it looks 60's but that doesn't seem possible assuming the prior statement. Just a guess though.

Great photo, maybe a member recognizes that grating.

I think its ft lauderdale stadium. Spring training circa 1962-63.

Some of the pics in this article will help

March 28 Of 1962, or march 29 of 1963. My gut tells me 1963 (stans last spring trainig)

Changed in 1962, so confirms either 1962/3

Thanks Dave. Great information.

Thanks for the info. Ft Lauderdale was a great call. I think it was 1961 if that uniform chart is accurate. Look at Musial's socks.

Gotta be 1962. Yankees were at al lang field in st peterbirgh in 1951. The socks may have been leftovers from the 1961 season, which is likely with it being spring training and all

Now that we know the when and where of this photo, let me state the obvious. What a great photo with two great signatures ! It's a beauty.

I was thinking the exact same thing. Imagine if it were in color.
