Polish Falcons Nest 123 team photo courtesy of Tom DiLuzio. |
The baseball team pictured here is the Polish Falcons Nest 123. The club is located at 602 East 19th Street in Erie, PA.
Some possible clues:
The Polish Falcons won the 1938 Glenwood League title. Members of that team included: Bully Zawadski, Joe Yurkey, Butch Gajewski, Stan Koniecko (or Konieczko), Slomski (center field), Matlock (catcher), Grabowski (3rd bass), Perzynski (right field), Price (pitcher). Who knows, the photo might be from 1945 or 1946.
I will update this post as the ball players are identified, so get crackin'.

The bat boy is my dad Frank Czulewicz.Back row #8 is my grandfather Stephen Czulewicz.It has to be later than 1938 because my dad was born in 1937.
