He was a pretty good outfielder who had great seasons of .353, .367, .359 and .354 for the Tigers in the 1920s. Unfortunately, as his nickname suggests, Fothergill battled a weight problem as he got older. Still, he hit .296, .282 and .295 for the White Sox.

I looked at that for a possibility, but wasn't sure. He has those kind of sunken eyes though and the time period is correct.
Lance, it does look like a presentation photo. There's a crimped border at the 8x11 mark on the 11x14 paper. It's really high quality. I'll also include an overall photo as well as the back stamp and angled shot of the front. Thanks for everyone's help along with whoever else wants to chime in with info. Jason
