Hi everyone,
I'm a new user and was sent this way by a buddy of mine. I'm was hoping you all could help me out with a WaJo Type 1 from his estate
I have the year as 1920 based on the uniform and matching it to other photos from around then. I'm looking for help getting the day down.
WaJo only pitched at Fenway on opening day of 1920 and July 1st, his only no hitter.
A photo from Opening Day 1920 (which also helps with the uniform/year) shows then Gov. Coolidge with both teams and a lot of the advertisements above Duffy's Cliff. And in the Type 1 you can see there is 1 advertisement that is different. I've attached both and circled differences and similarities.
I've already looked into the weather and what WaJo was wearing and it hasn't been very conclusive. I'm also going to reach out to his grandson who was the first seller of the photo.
If anyone has anymore photos from 1920-1921 Fenway that could help pinpoint when that advertisement changed over, that'd be great!
Thanks for the help!
