Here's a series of three Brooklyn Robins vs. Philly As 1914 or 1915 Spring Training panoramic RPPCs, taken at Ebbets Field "south". Love the IDs/text on the fronts. The back shown has a message from Brooklyn pitcher Charlie Schmutz to his mother.

Sweet Daytona RPPC's & the El Paso Tx PC with Rube & Christy is so unique as well! Fun to see these teams in spring training at the turn of the century.

Perhaps Hank Thomas will check in with specifics, but I recall when Walter pitched in 1909 in the California Winter League he not only pitched for the Santa Ana Yellow Sox, but he also pitched for the Los Angeles Olive team. In one game Johnson pitched against a colored team called the Los Angeles Giants and struck out 20 batters.

Since one of the guys in your photo is sporting a Los Angeles jersey, I'm wondering if this photo was taken while Walter played on the LA Olive team in 1909....

Killer PC! If you ever decide to do anything with it, please keep me in mind.

Can you tell what the kid next to Schaefer is holding?

[seattlerainiers]

Can't really tell what's in the box, even with enlarging the pic. The name label on the kid's shirt MAY say "Royal Mirror". Box of small square mirrors? New advertiser at the ballpark?
