The caption reads "Paskert, Phila," which most likely refers to Dode Paskert, the outfielder who played for the Philadelphia Phillies in the 1910s. The Bain News Service, a New York picture agency, made many thousands of glass negatives of athletes, politicians and other people in the news. The record gives no date, and the name comes from the negative or its caption card rather than a verified source, so the identification should be read as provisional.
