Mordecai Brown, c. 1907

This image comes from the archives of the Chicago Daily News. The negative is located in the Chicago History Museum and indicates the shot is of Brown at the West Side Grounds during the 1907 World Series. This print is from the original negative but likely printed later. The orange editing marks were from an early 1940’s newspaper article as shown on the back of the print.
