I hope this link works for everyone. I'm definitely going to print out the Larry Haney and try to get it autographed.

Great find.

There is something about the Pilots that fascinates me. Much like an 1800's franchise they stayed for a year then moved on.

Unfortunately the press box was located on the roof behind home plate which made so much of the photographs impersonal. Nevertheless, any new Seattle Pilot find is a treasure indeed.

Now that's a classic baseball look: button-down jersey, belted pants, stirrup socks, black shoes. Cool!

"button-down" stirrup what? Nice pajamas. I bet that flannel stuff kept them warm in the cold, damp Seattle air.

Nice, rare, old photos, however, no player identifications were included.
