Lot Description  

Classic 6.5x8.5 full-body photo of young Phillies hurler Grover Cleveland Alexander warming up before a capacity crowd at the Polo Grounds. Photo displays beautifully with only minor ink blemishes above Alexander’s cap and next to his beltline. Large Paul Thompson news photo service stamping appears on verso. Two or three other iterations of this photo are known to exist but this is the widest crop we’re aware of. This photo is fresh to the hobby and originates from the archives of Photo File, Inc. where it has been stored for several decades until this offering. Full LOA from PSA/DNA.
