Joe Birmingham 1906

Birmingham was a significant force, in more than one capacity, in Cleveland baseball history during the first 2 decades of the 20th Century. Not greatly noted for his batting prowess he was usually a fixture as the team's Centre-Fielder.

This image is from 1911 and again I am unaware that a colored image of Birmingham exists.

The Cleveland team was usually referred to as the Naps during this period. In 1912 and 1913 the nickname Molly McGuires became prominent.
