This pair of Brown Brothers photos depict Chief Bender. A close comparison of the outfield wall shows the photos were likely taken the same day.

A Brown Brothers photograph of Frank Baker in his follow through during warmups. Note the upturned collar and the massive size of the bat he swung.

Fantastic shot of Frank Baker in full swing against the backdrop of New York’s Hilltop Park. Based on the uniforms and the fact Hilltop was not used by the Highlanders after 1912, this photo is likely from that year.
