Yeah, the original thread-starting photo was definitely from the World Series (and from '41). You can tell by the angle of the facade's shadow on the field. At that time of the year, the shadow line was generally parallel to the first-base line. As the day wore on and the sun went down, the shadows engulfed the entire field with left never really being covered in shade (which is why it was always referred to as 'the sun garden').
Also, the red, white and blue bunting adorning the decks was always the sign of either Opening Day, an All-Star Game, a holiday doubleheader, or the World Series. In this case, I'd bet the farm that it's from that year's Fall Classic.
Just my two rusty pennies...
