Red Faber, 1918 in Spring Training

A Photographic Treasury of Baseball’s Deadball Era

Red Faber, 1918 in Spring Training

Red Faber during Spring Training in 1918 at Mineral Wells, Texas. We know it is 1918 by the stamp and the uniform which the Chicago White Sox wore in the 1917 World Series.

We also know it is 1918 based on this news photo which appeared before the White Sox broke camp in Texas.
