The Denver player is actually Mortimer Martin "Mart" McQuaid (not James). This is a correction to the book due to fine research by Scot Reader.

Back to Umpire McQuaid, he is also shown on OJ card 309-4; posed behind Chippy McGarr (not my card).

Thank you!!!

Thank you so much for helping me with my article, so here is the checklist of N172 Umpires I have at the moment:

#NNO Wallace Fessenden - Arms by side.
#NNO Wallace Fessenden - Arms folded.
#NNO Wallace Fessenden - Hand on knee.
#NNO Wallace Fessenden - Hands behind back.
#NNO “Honest John” Kelly - Looking at approaching ball “Ass.”
#NNO “Honest John” Kelly - Looking at approaching ball “Ass’n.”
#NNO “Honest John” Kelly w/ Powell
#NNO Jack McQuaid - Nameplate: “McQuaid, Umpire American Association.”
#NNO Jack McQuaid - Nameplate: “McQuaid, Umpire.”
