Toby - if you can make out and post the text in the bottom left of the white border and the bottom right on the image, that might give some clues.
Edited to add - you should button a collar button or two ![]() Last edited by Matt; 06-24-2009 at 05:28 PM. |

I am growing out that hair. That is the original bigfish my dad holding the picture. He was out in the rain cleaning the horse stalls. 22/24 straight days of rain here

Don't know anything about it, except that it is a great looking piece. Enjoy it!

That looks like an M113 Baseball Magazine premium.

Frank I thought M113 also due to the date and it being put out by Baseball Magazine, but the size and format look different then any M113 that I know of.

Hey Matt...
First, I think it is an M113. I agree with you, Matt, that M113s aren't 24" x 16". I have 3 really large M113s, Hughie Jennings and Walter Johnson are 19" x 10", Tex Russell is 19" x 12". But I don't think that scan up there depicts something that is truly 24" x 16". If it is, the fellow holding it has 4 inch thumbs. And from the middle of his chest to the edge of the poster would be half the width... 12" from the middle of the chest to the edge?? 24" across excluding the arms??? No way... So I think it is an M113. I think Toby needs to remeasure. Toby, do you actually have that? If you do, please remeasure. If you don't, ask whoever has it to remeasure. Finally, I think the SCD may be a year or two off on the 1913 date that they've attributed to the Philadelphia Athletics team poster. Last edited by FrankWakefield; 06-24-2009 at 09:13 PM. |

I just re measured it. Measured just the glass this time. 22.5 X 14.5. I will take it out of the frame eventually. I do have it in hand and can't find a reference for it. I appreciate your comments and time.
Frank, You might be right. SCD might be off. Copyright is 1910. Must be a typo. I have received a few e-mails about this. Thank You Last edited by bigfish; 06-24-2009 at 09:31 PM. |
