Giants uniform question
I recently picked up this photo and its showing online that this particular style uniform was only used in 1916. Is that true? Hard to think anyone would wanna get rid of this much plaid..lol

Indeed it was, Joey. The uniform was expected to be met with a lot of good feelings - the NYTimes suggested they were the "high-water mark of baseball fashions" in January of 1916.
I guess they didn't go over that well.

maybe they took off the NY and donated to a local prison after the season.

I don't know about THESE specific duds, but i've read in a few contemporary newspaper articles that the New York Giants did occasionally donate their old uniforms to Sing Sing Prison!
