Ty was know to get his uniform dirty now and again. Could it be that his home uniform was dirty?

Thanks for your research Bob. I really do appreciate it.

I am planning on starting the eBay auction for this photo tomorrow evening (Sat). Hopefully I can id the stadium by then. I will also be selling original pre-war photos of Babe Ruth, Lefty Grove, Gehrig, Dizzy, Feller and others. I am cleaning house...it is spring. I'll add a thread over on the buy/sell/trade area with more info.

Again, thanks Bob!
Navin Field in Detroit doesn't look right either. I checked.
