Posted By: <b>Phil Garry</b><p>Obviously, Honus Wagner is all the way on the right, I'm not sure about the others. Any idea what year this photo was taken?

Posted By: <b>howard</b><p>Third from right looks like Claude Ritchey.<br /><br />My first thought when I saw the photo: "Damn, those are some ugly jackets!". The eye of the beholder : )

Posted By: <b>Anonymous</b><p>Admittedly, by today's standards, those jackets would be an eyesore. It's almost impossible to picture Big Papi, Ichiro or Manny trotting out of the dugout, wearing one of those.<br /><br />But the Nostalgia factor, and the fact that they are so antiquated makes them all the more intriguing. I think it's more a case of "absence makes the heart grow fonder", rather than "eye of the beholder".<br /><br />This hardly looks like athletic apparel... But I am sure that in a Catalogue Auction, one of those jackets (common player) would easily fetch $15,000 or more.

Posted By: <b>Rhys</b><p>Is it weird to anyone else that the guy next to Wagner is wearing a jacket that buttons up opposite of the way the rest of the players jackets do? I thought only girls clothes buttoned the opposite way or maybe they did that for lefties back then. Reminds me of the time Michael Scott from "The Office" accidently buys a womans suit at a clothes store that had no pockets on the butt so they as him to check the label and it is "Miss-Terious". <br /><br />Rhys

Posted By: <b>Mark L</b><p>I think it's just that the guy on Wagner's left has buttoned the inner flap of the double breasted coat over what is ordinarily the outer flap. Just a theory.
