Default late 30s early 40s Cubs Photo Pack questions

Posted By: Tony Gordon

I find it interesting that the addresses of Andy Lotshaw's company and the recipient of the photos are located much closer to Comiskey Park than Wrigley Field. According to my grandfather, a resident of Chicago's South Side from 1908 to 1940 (huge Sox fan) and who has long since died, there weren't too many Cub fans down that way.

I checked the Illinois Secretary of State's website for information on the Andy Lotshaw Company but came up empty. The Secretary of State's archives unit may have something, I'll send them an email.

I found this great photo of Andy Lotshaw, please follow the link (I don't know how to cut and past photos into these messages):
