I'm pretty sure that as late as 1930 teams were still pressing charges against fans who didn't return foul balls. I know that there were teams who let the fans keep foul balls at their home stadium, but I don't think that became the norm until the late 1920s/early 1930s.
Not sure if the rule applied to home runs.
