Picked up this photo of what the owner thought was Forbes Field in 1915; however, after looking at other early photos of Forbes, I'm not sure. Any ideas about this photo?

It's Wrigley Field. You can see the weird Wrigley Gum mascots that used to be on top of the scoreboard. Someone who's a Cubs historian can tell you the exact year based on the scoreboards, because the moved it before the 1929 World Series

When I was a kid, back in 1969, the Pirates celebrated the 60th anniversary of Forbes Field by playing the game without the public address system. A guy with a similar megaphone announced the lineups, and we were able to hear him from the stands. Naturally, he had to walk along the sidelines, giving the lineup and other changes to different parts of the park.
