Two named figures, Glennon and Monahan, are the particular focus of this picture, though the record does not say who they were or what role they played as mascots at the 1916 World Series between the Boston Red Sox and the Brooklyn Dodgers. The Red Sox won that series four games to one, with a young Babe Ruth among their pitchers. The photograph comes from the George Grantham Bain Collection, a body of news photographs taken in New York in the 1910s and 1920s, and its c. 1916 date places it in the early years of that run of press images.
