Baseball A Long Long Time Ago

(Click on photo to enlarge via Uniwatch)
TW: Vintage 1904 Boston v. New York except the Yankee name had not yet been created. Folks speak of the outfield fences being moved around to accomodate modern sluggers, back then the "fence" was truly flexible depending the nature of the crowd and the crowd controllers. I also noted that the crowd appeared exclusively male and just about everyone of them wore a hat. The air was probably a bit challenging to breathe as well.
