This panoramic photo, taken at Boston's famous Fenway Park in 1914, captures 25 members of the Boston Red Sox as they pose shoulder to shoulder in front of the dugout.

Each of the players is identified by white lettering positioned directly below their respective positions in the image. The photographer's copyright notice ("1914 Darley and George”) appears along the bottom. The caption along the bottom (in white lettering) reads "Boston 'Red Sox' American League at Fenway Park, Aug. 19, 1914." Framed and matted to a finished size of approximately 41" x 13", this historic piece featuring the A.L. runners-up from that season.
