Let's show some appreciation of reality. The first 6 images shown of "Curt Davis baseball" in a Google image search all show the same image of Davis in a Cardinals uniform from the Sporting News Conlon collection, of which a colorization is commonly known! TNFOTO has done some notable work in outlining how to undertake baseball research let's show it at least a modicum of respect.

I would not have believed that I need to say this :-

If you check the file you invited others to download from this site on 17/8/1918 you would find this image colorized.

This is the just latest of numerous frivolous requests to duplicate work already done. Often the requests are accompanied by below par source images of requests to fabricate an existing image by a cap change when a more comprehensive research would reveal a source image in the team requested. This trend has now overwhelmed this thread so it sadly has lost any sense of authenticity. Buccos is spot on in terms of his assessment.
