I recently purchased this photo from another members and, while we agreed on the possible date range ('31-'33), we don't have a clue about the locale.
Anyone want to make educated guesses at which park this is? Could be some obscure Minor League field, a Spring Training site or even a Barnstorming locale. BABE RUTH PHOTO.jpg

It hard to tell from the image if any of the signs are clearly readable but I would quest at least one of the signs if from a local business. Google the name and it will probably give you a town and then the stadium shouldn’t be hard to find.

I'll venture a guess -- Griffith Stadium in Washington. Based on what I think is a sign advertising the Capital Garage. Only about 50% confident in the guess, photos I've found resemble it but aren't definitive.

Looking at the lights, the trees, the batting cage, my guess would be Crescent Lake Field in St Petersburg Fla. post 1931. Nice image.

Here is a video from the 1933 World Series.
https://youtu.be/cjv5WRNXJo8 The camera pans the advertising on the wall beginning at the :20 mark. The advertising looks to be a match. The seating in center was added for the World Series. I would feel rather confident your image is from 1933 in Griffith Stadium. Other years have different advertisers or variations of advertisements that existed in 1933. Judging by the foliage on the trees in your photo, I would go with the April 23-25th series between the Yanks and Senators. |
