Vernon Tigers? Tom Hughes?
I picked up this photo maybe 25 yrs ago thinking it was Salida Tom Hughes from name on reverse. But he never played for Vernon Tigers.
Anybody have an idea who it really is? year? Maybe used for a Zeenut card?

Buzz,
The player in the photo looks to be Ernie Shore, but I'm not 100% certain.

Not a bad guess. That would be 1921 when he was 30 yrs old at end of career. The guy in the photo doesn't look particularly young.

Buzz,
From SABRE's Bio on Ernie Shore: Shore’s regular season, though, was even worse than 1919’s. He finished at just 2-2, with one save. The Yankees dispatched him with pitcher Bob McGraw, catcher Truck Hannah, and first baseman Ham Hyatt to the minor-league Vernon Tigers for shortstop Johnny Mitchell in January 1921. (The Vernon club played outside Los Angeles in the Pacific Coast League.)

Bingo! They did not include winter league stats in ML records.
Thanks, really appreciate it.
