Thanks everyone!
One thing I noticed looking at 23-24 rosters, is that a 21-year-old Moe Berg is on the 1923 team but not 1924. Is anyone here familiar with pictures of him from his younger days? It's a bit tough with many of the players looking down or to the side.

I just looked for Moe and I think I see him. He was only on the team in 1923, so that would make this 1923. Looking forward to hearing if people agree with the id.

Bryan,
I'm not too confident in that particular ID of Berg, as he was known to "rock" a rather iconic "uni-brow" for much of his playing career. Not sure if I happen to see that in this image, but it could very well be the case. With that being said, it could still mean this is a team shot from the 1923 season, as Berg played for Brooklyn in 1923 (not 1924) - he was a rookie call-up that summer. Given his mid-season call-up, it could stand to reason that this was an early season shot. Also, if my ID of Hungling is correct, this would further support this being an early season shot, as I believe he was on the roster for the first couple of months before being called down to the minors (much of his career was spent in the minors). Again, just my amateur opinion, but figured to share it! Best, Josh

Here's a clearer crop of that section of my high resolution scan -- I added one more interesting guy to make it the Three Musketeers.

spring training
Great pic! I agree with lumberjack that it's probably spring training 1924. That is Clearwater Athletic Field their spring training facility in those days.
