After watching it for a few days, and a little research, I decided to just jump on the low BIN.
The Sipsey Mine Team from the Birmingham Industrial Leagues in the 30's.. Front row, 2nd from the left, is apparently Huey Green, father of World Golf Hall of Famer, and 1985 PGA Championship winner Hubert Green.. Lucked into part of an article from 2004 about the Industrial Leagues, that just happened to use the photo.. http://bplonline.cdmhost.com/cdm/sin.../id/1107/rec/7 Not sure if anyone else in the photo is notable though..

David - Very interesting investigative work...I'd be surprised if there's a group of collectors looking for fathers of HOF golfers on vintage baseball memorabilia. If such a group exists, you've probably hit the jackpot!!!

Also stumbled upon an article about a new Negro League Muesum that is being built in Birmingham. It will not only focus on the Negro Leagues themselves, but also the Industrial Leagues.. http://sports.yahoo.com/news/alabama...001955976.html Last edited by novakjr; 09-08-2013 at 08:43 AM. |

I acquired the book. While gently flipping through the pages, I ran across the ad in the back. Does anybody have the Anson pocket scoreboard ? I think it'd be a neat collectable.

I've had this for a while, but I find that as a Pirates fan and as a collector of old bats, I'm starting to really like this photo. The Bucs are in their 1925 unis, although the photo is stamped 1926. I'll guess that the hitter is Oil Smith, but I don't know for sure.
