Hey guys, I bought a couple cool old prints of Wrigley Field for my condo, but the listings don't have a ton of information about the year they were taken. I figured there might be a history buff or two in here that could clue me in. I figure people might ask questions about them, so I'd like to have the background.

First one, no date range was given by the guy at all. I figure someone will be able to tell approximately when it was taken based on the cars in the picture (I think that metal railing the kid is leaning against is still there).



Second image, it says c1930s. Not sure if anyone has a better idea based on the street cars and other buildings.

This picture was taken on July 19, 1935, between 3:00 p.m. and 7:22 p.m.

The third vehicle, parked along the curb, in the second picture looks like an early 30's Ford. The fourth one is a late 30's Chevy, I think. In the first picture, the Ford across the street is similar to the Ford in the second picture.

I don't understand why Baton Rouge can't get a rail system like Chicago.
