Dewey,
That is it. Do you have the original, or is this a copy also. Bill

Sorry, no original. Just found this online. Maybe it can be copied or at least spark someone's memory.

Tom,
Dewey found the image online, probably an old post of mine, but maybe you can search and locate it also and see if this photo went up for sale the past two year. As I mentioned, sent that copy to Goldin and maybe they still have the photos in their archives and can contact the purchaser to see if he still owns that photo. If I had that photo, I would sell it to you in a heartbeat. At least you can copy the image and the back. I do believe there was further writing on the back, as I believe the name of "Al" was used, and possibly his last name as well. Try posting at other sport sites as well, maybe you can reach the owner that way. The auction was July 12, 2014, Ruth 100 year anniversary. I already sent you what lot numbers it may have been in during the auction. Good luck Bill Bill

Good luck, Tom! Very cool that that is your uncle.
The link under my first post will take you to slightly higher quality pics. FYI. At least according to my aging eyes. |

Tom,
The post Dewey found that photo was an ebay forum and it was me who made that post. I had forgotten I posted that photo on ebay. I am glad it still existed so you can at least get a copy. Bill

Dewey,
I got a PM from Tom, and he stated that his Uncle's daughter, his cousin, who has known of the photo and has been searching for it for years. It may be the only known photo taken of him playing ball. I informed him that the photographer worked for the Cleveland Press and the red editor markings on the back means the photo was probably used in one the paper's publications. At the Western Reserve Historical Society, in Cleveland, they only have to search through 1948, and should be able to easily find the newspaper article to go along with the photo. Thanks were sent along in Tom's PM to me, but much goes to you as well. I know they appreciated your effort. Bill
