Hi Scott, I was previously trying to identify a Detroit Tigers player and one of the board members shared with me this excellent site. From the site, it looks like the Tigers wore this style uniform from 1918-1920.

Very Cool Thorpe photo, it was used on an exhibit card-

This is my first time ever seeing that exhibit. It's quite impressive. I have always been fascinated by Thorpe. The photo is the only item featuring him in my collection as I tend to stick to baseball. I seem to be buying a number of these photos lately. This one came in the mail today. I am not a football fan and I'm a 3rd generation Yankee hater. Nonetheless Don Larsen and the NY Giants together with the Stadium facade in the background was irresistible.

Picked up autographs of Al Bridwell, Rick Ferrell and Joe Wood. The Al Birdwell is particularly interesting. In his note he mentions he'll sign the cards despite his failing health. Note is dated August 13, 1968 and he passed away less than 5 months later.
