Stunning!!!!

I can't recall ever seeing most of these pictures. Great job, yet another photo thread you've started. Kudos to you, really enjoying the later-in-life Joe shots.

I've been enjoying all these photos of Cobb, Ruth and Jax the last week or so. Thanks to all for going the extra mile. It's been a joy.

An absolutely stunning collection of photos! :applaud::applaud:

This is an interesting picture.

The man in the center holding the bat is black. He's not a teamate but he clearly is the focal point of the photo, which is curious for the era.

I'm guessing it's the off-season, judging by the leafless trees and heavy coats. I'm quessing also, if he was an oposing player from a barnstorming tour, he would be wearing some type of uniform. He's not. Most of the players seem to be smiling, happy about being photograghed with him. I'd like to find out who the bat holding man is.

Do you have access to any other information concerning this photo, besides the year ?

Do you have access to any other information concerning this photo, besides the year ?

From the website:

This photo was taken in 1914 during Spring Training in Athens, GA and the monument in this picture is still standing at the corner of College Avenue and Broad Street. The photo shows Joe (the only one without a cap in the photo) and other Cleveland teammates with musicial instruments.......although we're not sure why. The black man in the middle is actually holding one of Joe's bats...... The story goes that Joe and one of his teammates had been hitting fly balls to this man and a group of his friends during the entire practice session on the day this photo was taken.

That's great, thanks. It's a shame to think he probably never got a copy of this photo. What a great thing for his decendents to own.

I thought maybe the instruments had something to do with him. Did Joe play the ukelele ? I didn't know that.

BTW - what web site did you get this info from ?

[Brian McKenna]

That's great, thanks. It's a shame to think he probably never got a copy of this photo. What a great thing for his decendents to own.

I cut off the part where it said the picture was provided by a "Jackson family member."

When you're viewing a picture - note the web address.

I meant the black guy.
