Mark,
The fifth paragraph of Bill Hawes by Charlie Bevis http://bioproj.sabr.org/bioproj.cfm?...=5992&bid=1675 gave me the information about Bill Hawes on the Lowell team. That is a great article and form of reference. I'm interested to know. How did you determine that it is Bill Hawes in the CdV ? Last edited by 19thcenturyonly; 06-28-2009 at 02:27 PM. |

Seth-
Charlie's article is a great source. I'm surprised SABR has a bio on him already as his MLB time was so short. As to the ID - for starters, while the guy in the cdv does resemble Charlie Jones (your original arrow placement) in the Boston headshot composite - the ear shapes don't match. Next step was to check the ID's in the Boston photo, the key one being Hawes who is correctly identified in the NYPL version of the Boston photo, confirmed in the New York Clipper. Then - IMO the cdv subjectively looks just like Hawes in the Boston photo. Every facial structure matches. Ideally we would then compare the same ear in both photos - but clearly we can't. We are forced to compare right vs. left ears, (nearly everyone's right and left ears are very similar - though there are exceptions). In this case they match so perfectly that if I was in the market - I would buy the photo. If you would like more graphic details, contact me offline.
