1930s Photo ID Help - Jimmie Wilson & Athletics
Hi Everyone, requesting an assist on the attached photo. It's a type I from the 1930s I'm guessing. The only player I recognize is Jimmie Wilson in his catcher's gear. Someone from the Athletics has just hit a home run and is receiving congrats as he crosses the plate.
Any help with player identification, era, etc., is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I'm guessing 1931 World Series Game 3 Bottom 9th. Al Simmons has just homered cutting the Cardinals lead to 5-2.
The A's player holding the bat is 100% Jimmie Foxx. The only time Jimmie Wilson would have faced a Foxx led Athletics team is the 1931 WS I believe. Assuming Foxx is ready to bat, the player that just homered is Al Simmons. Simmons homered twice in the 31 WS, but only once at Shibe park - game 3. That would make: A's Player crossing home plate: Al Simmons A's Player holding bat: Jimmie Foxx A's player waiting to congratulate: Eric McNair Card's Catcher: Jimmie Wilson Umpire: Dolly Stark https://www.baseball-reference.com/b...93110050.shtml I could be completely wrong, however.

Amazing Steven, thanks so much. I was considering sending it to PSA to have it preserved and you helped me make that decision. Jim
