When people ask why there are not more game used baseball uniforms from the deadball era, the answer is simple; they used them until they were trash. Here you see this point illustrated better than any photo we have offered before as four members of the New York Giants are captured at Spring Training before their next season, each wearing a unique uniform combination. The four men are George Burns, Gene Paulette, Art Bues and Heinie Groh and they are wearing three different uniforms with Groh chopping the sleeves off his to make it something of his own creation as well. A clear image in great shape, this is an important piece of baseball history we have never seen before!
