The record names only a man called Allen and the Boston Braves, the National League club that played in Boston from 1912 until it moved to Milwaukee after the 1952 season. This glass negative belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, a body of press photographs made mostly in the 1910s and early 1920s for newspapers and wire services. Its date is unrecorded, so the exact year of the picture is uncertain.
