Help Identifying circa 1910 N.Y. Giants Photo
As I've recently learned, some of the Florida hotels in the 1900's-1910's used to hire off-season major league players to play exhibition games on behalf of the hotel, as a means of drawing more tourists in.
The panoramic photograph below is one such team. It is believed to be the Seabreeze Hotel in the Daytona Beach/Ormond Beach area, circa 1910. Thus far in the photo, we believe we have identified the following (left to right):
1. Doc Crandall
2.
3. George "Admiral" Schlei
4.
5.
6. Hooks Wiltse
7.
8. Bugs Raymond
9.
10.
11. Beals Becker
We are looking to Net54 for a little help in confirming these players, and seeing if anyone can identify anyone else. The photo should be clickable to take you to photobucket where you can enlarge and zoom in. Thank you so much for your help!
Sincerely,
Mark Anderson
