Frank WakefieldGentlemen,
I have 3 old photos I've been fretting about. None are related, and one is momentarily misplaced, so I'll post it another day.
The first is a team photo. A guy on the front row has a shirt with Providence on it, and I guess that fancy letter might be a P. Which Providence team? When?? Anyone recognize a player in there??? That black line at the top and left is drawn on there with ink, I think. Maybe this was used for some publication at some point in time...

Next is a lean ballplayer with "Cannery" on his shirt. I'd have guessed that was a west coast semi-pro team, but for the back of the photo. Nina's Newport Tenn. Newport had a team with the Appalachian League from about 1937 to early in 1942, and a team from 1948 - 1950 in the Mountain States League, or something like that. Anyone recognize the player, the jersey, the grandstands???? Anyone heard of Nina's or seen it on other baseball photos?

Thanks for looking, and thanks for help. With kind regards, Frank.
