Help ID 1920 NY Yankees player in scrapbook photo
1 Attachment(s)
These three snapshots were included in a scrapbook. I know that the player on the left is Roger Peckinpaugh and the player on the right is Fred Hofmann. Peck and Hofmann played together in NY from 1919 to 1921 only. The three players appear to be in the 1920 Yankees uniform (solid dark socks with dark caps). Photos are blank backed, except for scrapbook residue.
Can you please help me identify the player in the middle picture? Does their setting look familiar? Where are they? |
Looks like bob meusel..photo is kind of small
|
Thanks. I guess this would be Meusel's rookie year.
Any thoughts on where these photos were taken? Although I don't have a clue, I keep thinking spring training because of the somewhat shoddy surroundings. |
I would say Spring training
|
Not Meusel
It's Harry "Truck" Hannah.
|
ID?
One vote for Meusel and one vote for Hannah...we need a tie-breaker! :D
|
I think it looks more like Truck, but I'm no expert about Yankee faces.
|
Definitely Hannah
It's Hannah. Check page 28 of the "let's see some postcards" thread.

Yank ID
