Presidio Jul 23, 1917

Military men and ballpayers posed with a line of Maxwell cars, which were used to transport the SF Seals and Oakland Oaks players from Recreation Park to the Presido for an exhibition game in the Presidio between the two teams. An estimated 12,000 people attended the game which was sponsored by the SF Call newspaper.
