There are 2 really bad quality photos of Gordon & Koppell Field in Marc Okkonen's "The Federal League of 1914-1915." He says that "they may be the only existing photographic view of Gordon & Koppell field."
One photo clearly shows that, at least on the right field side, the seating extended well past the grandstand roof deep into the outfield. The left field line area is just too fuzzy to see if it matches Rhys's photo where the left field line seating does not extend very far beyond the roofline.
The second photo is a very wide panorama, also of poor quality, but in that one you can see that seating does extend only somewhat beyond the roof-line down the left field line - similar to Rhys's photo.
Also - the 1914 KC home uniforms are unknown (the road unis are listed).
Rhys - can you post a magnifcation of the scoreboard and perhaps the KC pitcher and Chi player near 3rd base?
