Jimmy Sheckard
Description:
Portrait of Jimmy Sheckard, baseball player for the Chicago Cubs, holding a baseball bat. Printed on back: "James T. Sheckard, leftfielder, has played 10 years of major league ball. Sheckard was known as the 'jumping jack' of base ball during the player war owing to the fact that he jumped his contract on three or four occasions but finally landed right side up at Brooklyn, from which club he was traded to Chicago in the spring of '06. His batting has always been fair. Copyrighted and published by A.C. Dietsche, Detroit, Mich., 1907."
