Default 1912 World Series Photos - ID and Opinion Please

Posted By: Todd Schultz

the photos with notations may have come from Game 3. Note that they all have a roman numeral III. Also note that one photo references Snodgrass batting with the bases loaded. He only came to bat in that situation once during the 1912 World Series--the 5th inning of Game 3 (flied to left for final out). Incidentally, the last Sox pitcher for Game 3 was none other than Hugh Bedient--he who only appeared on one card I believe J=K Candy.

The regular season MVP during those years won the Chalmers Award--a Chalmers automobile. Doyle and Speaker--both participants in that World Series--were the NL and AL winners that year. It appears that these cars were awarded at some point on the day of Game 3.
