Fans leaning out of an open automobile, waving flags for the Boston Red Sox, make this scene stand apart from the other baseball pictures on the board. The team took its Red Sox name in 1908, and its supporters were known for turning out in large, noisy crowds. Cars like this one were a popular way for rooters to travel to games or join celebrations after a win. The record does not name the riders or the occasion, but the scene shows how quickly team loyalty and the new automobile became part of American public life in the early twentieth century.
