Great cdv, Gary! Is the photographer/location of studio identified on the back? I always hope so when I encounter an early photo.

The second ticket from the top is of particular note.

On 9/25/09 the A's and Cleveland played a doubleheader. In the 1st game, HOF Eddie Plank was the winning pitcher (shutout). The second game featured a terrific pitchers duel between HOF Addie Joss and HOF Chief Bender. Bender and the A's prevailed, shutting out CLE 3-0.

Neat ticket!

Thanks! I do have some accounts and the boxscores from each of the games. In the clipping I have about that 1909 doubleheader it has Bender beating Joss 5-0 (with CLE making 6 errors) in the first game and Morgan beating Falkenberg 3-0 in the second game. I'll try to attach it and hope it's readable.

In the other games:
5/2/1908, the A's scored two runs on Boston errors in the 3rd, Dygert with the win, Winters, the loss.
8/20/10 Chief Bender beats Irv Young
5/30/11 Harry Krause shuts out Lew Brockett and the Highlanders.
9/6/13 Bob Shawkey beats Fred Anderson, Collins and Baker score 3 runs each and Tris Speaker goes 3 for 4.

Ed,
Looks like you are on it.
FYI, when you posted the photo of your tickets, I was curious what happened in each of the games. 3-0 score was a typo. I meant to say 5-0.

BTW, originating of the same Philadelphia collection I own a win ticket stub for each of these early HOF pitchers:

Addie Joss- 1909 (LP Chief Bender- Game 1) Game 2- Cy Young LP
Eddie Plank
Christy Mathewson-1910 (Win # 242)- vs. Phillies
Rube Marquard- 1912 vs. Phillies
Rube Waddell- 1904 vs. Wash

I picked these up at different times over the last 20 years...

Great stuff!

Thanks, Charles. The photographer is E R Smith from E Hampton Ma.

I attended the Cubs/ Yankees game Wednesday afternoon at Wrigley. There's a table & showcase set up inside the park with game used stuff, signed memorabilia by Banks, Williams, Jenkins etc... They also sell old line up cards that the are taped up in the dug out. I noticed one set off to the side, it was the Cubs vs Yankees from Yankee Stadium from April 6th, asked the price and bought it. There's only one for each dugout. I asked about the lineup cards from the games played at Wrigley (2), they're going to auction starting at $500 I was told.

Picked up this photo of the Marine baseball team at Pearl Harbor in 1944. I know Gil Hodges was stationed there in that time frame, and the player in the back row, 2nd from left looks like him. Any thoughts?

Great photo, but that's not Gil -- way too short for one thing.
