Cubs historical sleuthing: The other Reuschel brother

Getty Images supplied this caption to the photo of Paul Reuschel above:

Now. I’ve checked a lot of Getty photos over the years and those that say they’re from “circa” a certain year are often... not from that year, as was the case for the sleuthing article I posted here yesterday.

However, I have simple evidence that shows that in this case, Getty is correct. The photo was taken in 1975.
