Wish we could compare the ears, but the shape and feel of the smile combined with the squinting eyes and the prominent fold emanating from under his chin leave little doubt that you nailed it...

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

Getty images lists this photo under Speaker, and calls it “Baseball Players on a Hunting Trip.” Wonder if the other guys were players, too...

Default Cobb and Speaker were hunting with Max Wilde

Regarding the question above asking if Tris Speaker was in photo with Ty Cobb. He is. Both Cobb and Speaker were involved with hunts with my great uncle, Max Wilde, who is also in the photos. Max homesteaded the Lazy Bar F ranch which is 45 miles SW of Cody, WY. I have numerous photos of Cobb and Speaker on hunts with my uncle along with other baseball greats including Tom Yawkey, Pinkey Higgins and Lefty Grove.

That is awesome, thanks for sharing! If you have time, I'm sure a ton of people here would love to see scans of your photos.

Is that Pinky Higgins standing in between Cobb and Speaker? It sure looks like him.
