Default Help with Black Team id - 1915-25 era? GIANTS

Posted By: Ryan Christoff

Scott,

I'm a big fan of Pete Hill and have seen numerous photos of him. I admit there is a slight resemblance (I would not say a "strong" resemblance) but nonetheless, it is definitely NOT Pete Hill.

The picture you posted is of him is when he was the player/manager of the 1920 Detroit Stars. This was near the end of his career when he was around 40. The guy in your photo is much younger.

If it's not just wishful thinking about it being Hill, please explain to me at what point he added the huge cleft in his chin? Or at which point did he get rid of it?

Bottom line: not Pete Hill.

Still a great photo.

-Ryan
