Any experts on the West Side Park/Grounds in Chicago?

All framed up and ready for the description to be attached to the back. I'll make one final attempt to see if anyone can narrow the date more than 1908 to 1915.

No help but that is beautiful.

Great picture. You might consider commissioning a colorization of it - I know some guys who do a great job. Others not so much.

Thanks guys, if Graig Kreindler wasn't already working on a Bender for me I'd consider it, but if one of you guys want to use the image for a painting be my guest.

Not what I meant - 'colorization' involves adding color to a black and white photo, similar to what Ted Turner did with old movies, only good.

That would make an awsome color painting!!!!

May not be much help but a photo in the book "Smithsonian Baseball; Inside The World's Finest Private Collections", has photo from the 1906 WS between the Cubs and Sox. The smokestack on the right is missing and the building to the left of home with signage is missing as well.
