Located at the intersection of Clare Street and Annapolis Road, Westport Park was the location where the 1920 Baltimore Black Sox played their home games. The since-razed edifice provides the backdrop for this trio of near impossible Type 1 Studio team photographs with editorial marks. Published by Penn Studio of Baltimore, these 8x10 black-and-white pictorials depict a combined (28) Black Sox players, many of whom are long forgotten. A combination of perimeter and surface wear and crazing does not seriously detract from the overall presentation.
