Picked this up on Ebay...Image of a child, in uniform with a great looking crescent glove and ring bat . On the border is imprinted "New Era Photo Studios" and "Chicago Heights, Ill." The seller? has included a post it note on the back that indicates - the image is Harry",who was the mascot for the baseball team: The Chicago Heights Deckers in 1903.

Great early photo. I have an actual child's ring bat as pictured. My wife has claimed it for display with one of her vintage teddy bears.
