    This is a wonderful historical photo. Instant news communication has come a long way.
  • Wystan said:
    LOC -- this was taken at New York's Polo Grounds, not Philly's Shibe Park. Compare the image with three others from the same place and time, posted earlier: www.flickr.com/search/?q=telegraphers&w=8623220@N02

    (It also says "Polo Grounds" on the left margin of the photo.)

    OMG, rjones -- you're right; I hadn't seen that! I guess the Society of Baseball Research is not infallible.
  • David Gallagher said:
    i wouldn't call these fans, they seem to be members of the press

  • Wystan said:
    LOC -- your date in brackets below the photo [1912] is incorrect. The negative bears the date 1913.
  • Kristi (LOC P&P) said:
    Wystan, The [1912] date does appear to be incorrect, and not just because of the date on the negative! Mr. Flanner on the far right is reading a 1913 souvenir score book issued by the Athletics for the World Series, so that further confirms the date. The full date is likely 10/8/13 despite the 10/9/13 on the negative. Game 2 of the 1913 World Series took place at Shibe Park in Philadelphia on Oct. 8, while Game 3 took place the next day in Brooklyn at the Polo Grounds. Thanks for the heads up!

    Huge amounts of foul territory there.
