Looks like it's been closed since 1931. Link Cool photo. Probably are some Cubbies in there somewhere but the only face I can make out is Smilin' Ken Landis in bottom pic at right.

Here's a supplement of a team that could have won it all. A chance to be up 3-2 turned into a 1-4 series loss after the Cubs had an 8-0 lead and gave up 10 straight, followed by blowing a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the 9th the next day.

Here's kind of a similar piece to the Chicago Sunday Tribune supplement, it's from the Philadelphia Enquirer of Oct 13, 1929

No attempt to hijack, but in keeping with the theme and a very good book.

Closer to the original theme than my last post, this is a full sized newspaper page.

By far my favorite baseball book. The only one I've read multiple times.

"Quoth the Turkey"

Cap Anson still holds Cubs career records for BA = .339 and Hits = 3,081. Anson was also an accomplished billiards player....and, owned a billiards hall in Chicago.

There is also Jimmy Sheckard with his hand to his face. Can you post a close up of the people on the other side of the table? Love this pic!
