Mark,
Thank you for the information. I updated the arrow in the auction listing. My research pointed to Bill Hawes as the player in the photo, however, I was not able to be 100% sure. Are you sure the id of the photo is Bill Hawes ? Seth

Mark- Sorry to hijack the thread, but I very much enjoyed your article "Zooming in on a Great Old Photo" in the latest SABR Research Journal. It is a great piece of detective work but you need really good eyesight to be able to see those very tiny details. Everybody who is interested in photo i.d. should take a look at it.

Bill Hawes
Mark,
For minor league stats I looked at baseball-reference.com/minors powered by the SABR Minor League Database. As far as I saw, there was only data provided for Bill Hawes in the Major Leagues, but not the Minor Leagues. There was quite a bit of research done to narrow the photo down to Bill Hawes. I appreciate your confirmation that it's him. Last edited by 19thcenturyonly; 06-28-2009 at 07:31 AM.

Seth -
I agree that baseball-reference.com does not show a minor league record for him. I was wondering where the information on Hawes' time with Lowell came from - newspaper microfilm? Barry - Actually I hijacked Seth's thread  . Thanks for the kind words on my article. Getting a hi res scan from HoF made it possibe to see the details. BTW your Peck & Snyder advertising poster (on anotherer thread) is just awsome. Last edited by bmarlowe1; 06-28-2009 at 10:20 AM.
