Picked up a newspaper photo of the 1923 Nebraska Indians..the first image I've seen of this team. Joe McCarthy managed and played center field...Nah, not that one...the HOF Joe McCarthy was managing Louisville in 1923. Anyone got a pic of the "other" Joe McCarthy?
![]() I also picked up a nifty cabinet photo circa 1890s of a Moorhead, MN player. Moorhead was a minor league squad in 1897 and I know it's a longshot, but does anyone have a team photo from that time period? I'd love to identify this player if possible. ![]()

Great images, Graig...
The Doerr Batting photo is spectacular, and Ott pensively inspecting the Bats would make a poignant (and truly epic) painting. Great stuff... and very sorry I missed you in Chicago

"Ott" is Irish Meusel.

Whoever it is, I bet he is wondering about that dark bat with the rings. What kind of bat is it?

The Mantle and Joe D photo will have people asking if
mantle used that bat. It was the practice of photographers to just grab bats and gloves and hand them to players before they took pictures. A lot of times equipment sellers will use photos as a way to authenticate a players use of such. Do your homework before you buy and don't always believe the story Look at the older players in each photo, they knew to turn the bats around while the rook needs to learn a few things Last edited by murphusa; 08-08-2011 at 03:02 PM. |
