FS: George Sisler, Fielding Yost, Carl Lundgren U. Michigan Snapshots NOW (sold)
SOLD net to me.
An album page from one of the University of Michigan players. Pictured are the baseball coach (1914-1920), the famous to this board Carl Lundgren, and football coach Fielding Yost, their famous football coach (1901-1926).
The pics show the players at the hotel in uniform, and out on the town at landmarks and hitting on some young ladies (captioned "A favorite sport").
Second from the left seated in the pic at the hotel with the uniforms on is George Sisler, who lettered at Michigan from 1913-1915.
The dates narrow the photos down to 1914-1915. Some are labeled, so I emailed the baseball staff to ask for the team schedules in those two years and they were kind enough to send them. They only played Vanderbilt in 1914, so that makes these 1914 photos.
Photos all measure 2.5" x 4.25"
