probably no connection, but the image instantly made me think of those 1906 Rustlers playing cards with generic ballplayers on them |

Looks like Ty Cobb or Babe Ruth. Possibly Joe Jackson. Better sell it on eBay to find out |

Tony, it's worth looking into as Hooper played his college ball at St Mary's of California which is located near the San Francisco bay area. He was righthanded just like the guy in your photo and he looks kinda smallish like Hooper was...so who knows? Probably wishful thinking, but you just never know. |

Just my opinion, but I feel this player has a strong resemblance to a young John McGraw. (which would make this photo a bit earlier than 1910) |

that it is Buck Weaver but in comparing Buck's uniform as it appears on both his 1911 Zeenut and 1911 Obak there were enough discrepancies that make me think otherwise. Also, Buck was not a catcher but it sure looks like him. |

It's not in the nose it's in the ears. The ears do not match. |

Steve, I don't mean Chase's nose (although that would help), I mean noses from several other player possibilites. |

Doesn't it kind of look like "the crab" too? |

I did understand your comment. My post was in response to Robert's apparent belief that it is in fact Hal Chase. |

If you think this is a Cincy player you need to find out why he would be getting his picture taken in San Francisco. I don't recall ever reading about any kind of spring training or exhibition games for the Reds on the West Coast pre 1920. So your next step should be to look at Reds rosters from the era to see if they had any West Coast guys on their team that may have gotten their picture taken during the off-season. |

Is it possible this is simply an artist's model? It would certainly explain why you've got someone in a fielding position using a catcher's mitt. |

I was going off of it being a Cincy player due to his cap style and partial logo |

I wouldn't necessarily call that glove a catcher's mitt...That could very well be a first basemen's glove. |

Dan may be right about a first baseman. The pose looks much more like a stretch to catch a throw than a play at the plate or fielding a grounder. |
