    As mentioned earlier, the date on the negative must be when it was developed. The Series was played at Shibe on 10/8 and 10/10/13.

    Game two of the 1913 World Series played at Shibe Park on Oct. 8, 1913. New York def. Philadelphia, 3-0, in 10 innings. Christy Mathewson was the winning pitcher and New York tied the series 1-1. However, Philadelphia won the next three games to claim the championship.

  • Wystan said:
    LOC -- your title needs a little work -- "baseball" at end, and close brackets.
  • The Library of Congress said:
    Wystan: We apparently hit the character limit for the title that appears above the photo. The complete title appears in the text block below the image.
  • Wystan said:
    Well, let's see, now . . . that certainly is a dilemma, but not an insuperable one. A conscientious proofreader would say that the title is prolix -- wordy, even -- and that unnecessary repetition could be ameliorated by excision of the phrase "New York" from the second iteration of "New York Giants" ("New York" being understood from the context). This will free up eight spaces at the end, which should be sufficient.
  • The Library of Congress said:
    Good point :-) And, one extra preposition also disappeared to add "(LOC)" at the end.
