Nicholas Altrock (September 15, 1876 – January 20, 1965) was an American professional baseball player and coach. He played in Major League Baseball as a left-handed pitcher between 1898 and 1919. After the 1919 season he continued to make periodic appearances as a pinch hitter for many years, until his final game at the age of 57. As a player, Altrock was a member of two World Series winning teams and then, won a third World Series as a coach. He was a coach for the Washington Senators for many years.

Alexander Schacht (November 11, 1892 – July 14, 1984) was an American professional baseball player, coach, and, later, restaurateur. Schacht was a pitcher in the major leagues from 1919 to 1921 for the Washington Senators.

Suck Diesel Thank you.

There's a mention of a possible Punctilio at the 1942 Howth Yacht Club regatta. It can be seen at the time in the video in this blog entry.

07.43–07:52

Believed to be Punctilio, Dublin Bay 25-Footer (waterline), designed by William Fife Jr., built by Charles Sibbick, Cowes, 1898. Owner in 1942, J.B. Stephens.

So the newspaper clip is Summer 1942.

And here's The Royal Alfred Yacht Club.

A bit more about Punctilio which hit rocks in West Cork in 1970 bringing about her demise.

Perhaps the top right and bottom left are of Punctilio. The coach roof in both look similar, and the position of the mast between coach roof and hatch looks good to me. So, what's the French connection? J.B. Stephens and George Arthur Newsom bought the boat in 1899/1900. Perhaps they got Mr. French to take a few photos after they bought it or during a refit? Could the man with the pipe in both right hand photos be J.B. Stephens?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1921_International_Lawn_Tennis_Chal... "The 1921 International Lawn Tennis Challenge was the 16th edition of what is now known as the Davis Cup. In the playoff finals, newcomers Japan surprised Australasia, 4-1, but would fall to defending champions the United States in the challenge round. The final was played at the West Side Tennis Club in New York City, United States on 2–5 September."

Thanks swanq, we'll update the catalog record.
