I'm lazy today, and it's still sort of a holiday weekend, so here's an old-time Cub for you to identify. Obviously, he's not a pitcher. But that's the only clue you get. Thanks to BCB reader cubswgnrocks for the photo.

never a Cub, but worth a (cheap) shot.

We have a winner.
I was hoping this would take more than an hour.

It’s amazing how much arcane Cubs knowledge I have stored in my brain!
This is not a Cubs uniform. I was looking at the early 1920’s team for a player which is the last time the Cubs used two tone hats.
The Phils used the two tone until the late 20’s and the logo on the sleeve does look like the “P” on the sleeve.

…but I don’t think cameras had been invented yet back when he was with the Cubs. Well, and also it’s not a pitcher.
