Crystal clear 1902 silver gelatin photograph of young Hall of Famer Roger Bresnahan from the New York Giants in full uniform. This photo is the work of photographer Carl Horner and it is absolutely original to 1903 and was peeled off the original backing by Baseball Magazine for easy storage in their files. This is the photo that was used to make his Fan Craze baseball card that is widely considered to be his rookie and this is one of only a handful known to exist. Crystal clear and off the original negative, this is an important piece of baseball photography offered here for the first time since 1996!
