I believe it is also Comiskey Park. Might even be mid-late 1920s the image was taken...even though it's a 1934 product. Matches the billboard ads. Minus the top clock which could of been added/removed at some point.
(Not mine pics, for reference).. edit: thanks Leon for the help uploading the photo! Herb Pennock Last edited by GoCubsGo32; 05-20-2025 at 03:10 PM.

Based on more research, I believe the Gehrig photo was taken 1925 at Comiskey Park. Which is Gehrig rookie year..?
The clock above the "The Peach" ad in the Gehrig photo is technically there, but I didn't notice before it's cut off by the thick trim boarder outline of the item. 1925 Ike Davis (last year in majors), shows ads matching Gehrig & the Pennock photo above Opening Day April 13, 1926 Browns vs. White Sox at Comiskey Park. The Peach, "Last Word" in Sports and few others billboard ads changed out.

This is crazy! I never knew Comiskey ever looked like this. Amazing to me.

My favorite pre-war photos are the ones with signage. Don't get me wrong. I think images of players are great. However, there's something about the ads that really brings the picture to life for me.
