Default Help with Mickey Cochrane photo Conlon

I would appreciate any info you could give on this photo which was in a lot of postcards I recently acquired. The photo measures 4 1/2" x 6 1/2" and has some foxing on it. On the back is typed "Copyright Charles Conlan, 1931" and has Conlon spelled incorrectly. I have been unable to find a match to it. Thanks.

I am not that good at read photos, but Mickey played with the Athletics from 1925 to 1933. The only years that match the uniform is 1931 to 1933. The solid color hat indicates it was their road uniform.
So the year on the back matches the uniform. So Mickey is on the road somewhere in 1931.

RackPack,
With Philly winning the AL pennant and St. Louis winning the NL pennant, and with Conlon present, this could be have been taken during the World Series, at Shibe Park in St. Louis.
But with the blurry background, don't think anyone will be able to confirm that information. But never know.

Stylistically that looks more like a George Burke photo to me for whatever that's worth.

I'm pretty sure that's Comiskey Park in Chicago. Conlon didn't need to get outside New York much to photograph subjects so that could be an innocent mistake on the back or a fraudulent tag to get a higher price.
