Help to identify baseball team from old photo & rppc

[MENAHAN319]

cool, I just Googled it, too.. I found the pics in a box of my Mom's, she collected old photos at antique shops, garage sale, etc..

The photo of Krapp is a photo mounted/ cabinet card. He is in the group shot, too. Seated on left end of the front row wearing a sweater (maybe it was a game day and he was keeping his arm warm!). Funny thing, he was listed as one of the 5 shortest pitchers in MLB history.

I am curious to know if Red Bowser in the photo. Can you post it in higher res?

I can help facilitate hosting a larger image, if need be? Send to leonl@flash.net..

..good detective work on this one too.
I have to say I am often amazed at what our board members sleuth.

I believe Red Bowser is in the back row, second from right. I took another pic of the group photo, with a close up on the man I think is Red Bowser. He should be there, I recall reading that it was his first season playing. In a reference photo, he has really predominant lower eye lids, like he has here. Plus, his mouth is a good match, too..

I'll also send the same image to Leon, since I might be not able to post a high resolution picture here.

thanks

My reference is not good, but that is very likely him.

Yeah, I wasn't able to find any other photo of Red Bowser, besides the one you have. It helps to look at them side by side, like you have. I really do think that is him.
Thanks, Tara
