Desirable 7.25" x 9.5" original news service photo depicting third baseman Eddie Grant (the only active ballplayer killed in action during WWI) of the Phillies tagging out Giants outfielder Moose McCormick. Card collectors will instantly recognize this image as the center panel scene found on Dick Hoblitzell and Eddie Grant's 1911 T202 triple folder card, "Grant Gets his Man." While it's well known that Paul Thompson portrait images were utilized throughout several important card issues of the era (T202, T205 etc.), Thompson's full-body and/or action images of players such as this are virtually non-existent. Borderless photo has survived in virtually flawless condition and includes Paul Thompson credit stamping on verso. Full LOA from PSA/DNA.
