Default 1921-22 Wahpeton-Breckenridge Twins team photo with Major Leaguer Roy Patterson

Posted By: Sean BH

**Found out a little bit and added a nice large scan.**

Picked this up on eBay a week or so ago, got it for a really good price I thought...$8.

It's the Wahpeton-Breckenridge Twins team from the Dakota League (http://www.baseball-reference.com/bullpen/Dakota_League) that was only in operation from 1921 - 1922. Does anyone know any other information about it? The whole mount measures about 14" X 13"...and on the bottom row three in from the left appears to be a member of the Honus Wagner family? Seriously.

Also from what I could find they were managed by major leaguer Roy Patterson (http://www.baseball-reference.com/bullpen/Roy_Patterson) who played for the Chicago White Sox (1900 - 1907) and had a few cards produced (e107). Can anyone find him in the photo? I'm thinking the first row, fourth from the right.

Thanks,
Sean
