Default What Do you think..........Guys
Picked this snapshot up about 5 or 6 years ago from a fellow "54`er". It`s from 1915 and shows the Red Sox on their way to the stadium. That Big Fella in the middle, with his face turned to the left, looks like someone I know. Wishful thinking on my part or could that be the Babe ? Thought we could use a bit of fun distraction today. Thanx for the input and hang tough !

He’s wearing shoes, so probably not Jackson....

I am not giving an opinion on the Ruth, but I think it is possible that is from Hot Springs spring training, not Boston. Might be worth looking into, there is a Hot Springs expert on the board.

I does look more like one of the surviving Hot Springs trolleys than a Boston trolley.

Default Hot Springs, very interesting
Thanks very much Bgar3 and Steve for the help and research. Sounds like the 2 of you are on the right track, that being Hot Springs not Boston, with this photo. That`s why the "54" is THE best and such an enjoyable part of my day. Will keep up the detective work while following this and any other input from the gang.

I don't think it's Jackson, and it's probably not Ruth, but I am pretty sure that the horse on the left is Man o' War.
