I am not an Anson expert, but I think not.
Here's a link of the woodcut that hasn't been "colored"... http://www.rarenewspapers.com/view/175006 I think that as the runner slides home that is the catcher tagging him... the fellow running is running from the pitching box. In 1885 Anson was primarily a first baseman. I do not think that was meant to be Anson, but instead a generalized image. |
