I picked up this small photo recently, and was trying to identify the team but haven't had much luck yet. The photo is mounted on a small board, and on the other side of the board is the same player in dress clothes and his suitcase posed in front of the outfield wall. Just figured I would see if anything jumps out at anyone. Thanks

Uniform looks very similar to this 1914 San Francisco Seals photo of Pete Standridge.... If a home game, that would put this player at Ewing Field.

If it is definitely a SF Seals PCL uniform, I have a picture of Orval Overall from 1913 showing him in the same uniform, minus the sleeve number. The number is the key to dating it, does anyone have any San Francisco Zeenuts circa 1910-1915 that shows these numbers? I would guess that they were a short-lived novelty. The uniform style is the one used starting in 1913 and looks like it was phased out in 1916. Also, Lemp's Beer was a St. Louis company if that means anything. The plain white socks could mean it was taken in spring training since the Seals wore various styles of socks with a navy stripe on them.

The PCL wore numbers on their sleeves during the 1912 season. According to a player from that era that I knew many years ago, the players did not like being referred to as numbers. The practice was discontinued following the 1912 season and numbering did not return until the early 30's (in the PCL).

If Mark says it is 1912, I'd put money on it. Here's a panorama of Ewing Field (Opening Day 1914). Acme Beer was sponsor in this 1914 shot. Good luck, and great photo.
