And we have a winner. You can almost see his right arm back to the right, ready to throw a ball. But perhaps in the original photo he was wearing a glove on that hand and it had to be removed altogether ?

I hope Ted Z. weighs in on this thread.

His arm is down and behind him. He is pitching.
Basically in this pose except the card cut off the arm.

His arm is cocked, ready to throw the ball. Perfectly normal I think(?)...

Bruce, I think his right arm was along the horizon to the left, but in the original photo it extended to far to fit in the T206 frame, so it was amputated - that blurry area below and to the left of his chin, is where his arm was in the original photo. Of course I'm just guessing, but the card looks armless as-is.

To the left is Chase a little bit earlier in his throwing motion (glove hand a bit higher). As he brings his glove hand down, his throwing hand should extend out a bit more.

Bumped for George and anyone else interested.

Surprised no one caught this yet. He used an ambidextrous glove.
