The man in the center of this photograph is Harry T. Hartwell. He served four terms as mayor of Mobile, Alabama, and was instrumental in getting a new baseball park established after Monroe Park was destroyed in the hurricane of 1926. The new park subsequently became known as Hartwell Field. In this image, the mayor poses with legendary golfer Bobby Jones and another unidentified man in front of a Whippet car, which apparently stopped in the city during its cross-country public relations' tour. Harry Hartwell died in 1942 and is buried in Magnolia Cemetery. |
