I have an old section of wall board from the press room at the old St. Louis Sportsman Park. Can anyone help identify these ball players? I had posted the catcher's pic in another forum and someone thought it was Mickey Cochrane. Does look similar - can anyone help me with these ID's? Thanks a lot for any help.

George Sisler on the right.

The Catcher is not Cochrane, he is known for the ears.

If you don't get an answer here you may try the main board. Unfortunately it does get more folks looking at it than these other ones....regards

I don't remember him ever being a catcher, but it looks like an older Chick Hafey?

Actually that does look like Cochrane to me -- just not the most Cochranesque picture I've seen.

This is my first post on NET54. Appreciate the replies and the civility!!! I may take L's advice and post on the main board just to get more opinions. I'm wavering on Cochrane, and I see the subtlety of the "ears." Thanks again

No way that's Cochrane. I'd look at the St. Louis catchers of the time, given where it was found. Maybe Hank Severeid.
