Z 1 to Z 9999 (Mar 1927 – Sep 1938); YI 1 to YI 9999 (Apr 1921 – Mar 1927); So well after Mar 1927 given Z 4229

1931 has a Monday 13th July as has 1936 and 1942 next one is 1953 so one of the previous 3 I think. Also 1931 is too early for the Z 4229 reg so take your pick between 1936 and 1942 I pick 1936 as if it was 1942 there would be less cars and some signs of the "Emergency"

Hold That 1936 Prediction it could just be 1931?? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Skin_Game_(1931_film) The Skin Game is a 1931 film by Alfred Hitchcock, based on a play by John Galsworthy and produced by British International Pictures (BIP). The story revolves around two rival families, the Hillcrists and the Hornblowers, and the disastrous results of the feud between them. Release dates26 February 1931 UK release

Great series, thanks!!

Look at that bat Mr. Gowdy has!! could a player today even swing that ??

Nice

I'd take them all on, snicker, snicker, if you know what I mean

Rudolph is crossed out and Connelly is written in. From the prior and succeeding photos, it seems that this is Joe Connolly

I agree with artolog. Here's another LOC photo of Connolly (with Rabbit Maranville): And here's another Bain photo of Rudolph: www.loc.gov/pictures/resource/ggbain.17420/ -- not the same guy.

artolog, rjones0856: You're right, it is indeed Joe Connolly. We'll upload the corrected description in the near future.

Another issue is why so many of the 1914 A's and Braves pictures are tagged as being in the Polo Grounds, when they were World Series opponents that year in games played at Fenway Park and Shibe Park. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1914_World_Series The dark uniforms of the Braves are their 1914 road uniforms, so why would it not be assumed these were taken at Shibe in Philly? exhibits.baseballhalloffame.org/dressed_to_the_nines/deta...

Art Siegel After looking at tons of photos of the Polo Grounds, there are some identifiable characteristics of the ballpark that enable one to identify the ballpark as the Polo Grounds with a considerable degree of certainty. Some of those include the fencing and seating along the backstop, the cement dividers of the box seats, the three parallel wood runners that line the backwall of the dugouts, the arrangement of the columns holding up the upper deck, the advertisements along the outfield wall, and, after the fire, the unique facing on the outside of the ballpark's second deck. You will also note that a number of the baseball photos in the Bain photostream were taken at the Yankees' former home field at Hilltop Park, and (then new) Ebbets Field. This is largely due to George Grantham Bain, and the Bain offices themselves, being based in New York City. Also, in 1914, both the New York Yankees and New York Giants played at the Polo Grounds. This is another reason why there are photos of American League and National League visiting teams and players at the ballpark.
