- SummaryEight former Dodgers, several elderly, others middle-aged or younger, posing before bleachers at Ebbets Field; all wearing jackets and ties except for younger player in Dodger uniform at lower left; scattered fans and bystanders in background. Caption on verso: "The lineup of 60 years ago -- or almost. It was Old Timers day at Ebbets Field yesterday and old Dodgers returned to the folks. And what a day! And what yarns! It takes a baseball veteran to spin yarns. Well, anyway, from let to right, seated [i.e. crouching], we have: Zack Wheat, Jerry Flood, Jacko Field, Mickey Welch and Tom Foster. And standing, left to right: Arlie Latham, Joe Prince and M. J. Matthews."
