Gaynor addressing Olympic Athletes (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • Wystan said:
    The 1912 Olympic games were held in Stockholm, Sweden, from late June to late July. This event in New York City on August 24 must have been a "welcome home" ceremony, for recognition of returning American athletes, and a celebration of their achievements.

Gov. Tener & wife (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • Wystan said:
    1863-1946. A native of Ireland, Governor (1911-15) John K. Tener of Pennsylvania was deep into baseball. He had been a professional ball player for Chicago, and even while Governor he also served as President of baseball's National League. He is shown here with his wife, Harriet, whom he married in 1889. She died in 1935. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Governor_Tener
  • Kristi (LOC P&P) said:
    Wystan, Thanks for the additional information on Gov. Tener and his wife, and for providing the date from the side of the negative. It turns out this is one of those cases we find where the date on the negative is not the same as the date of the event shown. This is Gov. Tener and wife Harriet at Game 2 of the 1913 World Series between the Philadelphia Athletics and New York Giants, which took place on Oct. 8, 1913, rather than Oct. 9, 1913 as noted on the negative. (Game 2 took place at Shibe Park in Philadelphia, PA while Game 3 took place the next day at the Polo Grounds in Brooklyn, NY. This photo shows Shibe Park based on the seating and other related photographs.) We'll update the description with more detail when we work on this record.
  • Wystan said:
    It appears to have been the case, frequently if not invariably, that Bain's crew would date the negatives on the day that prints were made to be sent to subscribers; in the case of breaking news, this often involved a one-day time lag.
  • Wystan said:
    On November 19, a few weeks after the photo was taken, Governor Tener accepted appointment as President of baseball's National League. The appointment was ratified by a convention of National League team owners in New York City, December 9 and 10, 1913:
