Star base ball players as trap shooters 1915 christy Mathewson
 

Lots of the early base ball publications seemed to also be tied to hunting. Usually it’s a bummer when one of these Magazines has a non baseball cover but at least this sporting life combined the two. It would be a lot better if Chief Bender and Christy were in uniform, but I am glad it’s not just a famous trap shooter of the time.

What is the date on the magazine?

Who is the person on the right? The photo it too small. When I copy and enlarge it is still illegible. He is wearing the US Olympic shield patch which was standard from 1908 into the early 1930's.

The far right is Christy Mathewson. I wondered what that patch was. The date is dec 4 1915. I am trying to get the picture to be better quality but it won’t upload if it gets too big.

That is his 1913 World Tour sweater with the emblem the Giants wore on tour.
