I picked up a couple pictures recently that I am excited to have....
The first picture is a baseball team. The picture (which I think you would call a cabinet photo -- correct me if I'm wrong) originated from Lonaconing, MD -- the small town where Lefty Grove and I both grew up (albeit at different times....). I have asked people in town to try to help me identify some of the players on the team, which might help narrow down the date of the photo. Notice the "L" on the uniform of the guy second from left. I am guessing that the "L" stands for "Lonaconing", but I really have no way of knowing for sure. I don't know why only one uniform would have an "L". Perhaps he was a player/manager? I am guessing that the photo was taken around 1900. Can any of you "equipment experts" help refine the date for me? Regardless of the date, I just love this picture. It is really cool!
The second picture that I picked up is a picture of Lefty Grove with a Nash Sedan. It is a great picture! I haven't done the research to refine the date of the photo, but I am guessing it was taken around 1929 or 1930 in Philadelphia. The photo is just absolutely stunning!
