"The Catch" is all you need to say in a room of sports fans and instantly people know you are talking about the play that Willie Mays made off a deep drive from Vic Wertz in the 1954 World Series. The angled shot from behind home plate has been reproduced a million times, but this offered image is a rarely seen "Other Angle" photograph from a higher perspective. A fantastic original from the International News, this is stamped on the back and has the paper caption present as well. It shows the path of the ball, Mays about to extend his glove, and how far Wertz was able to run before realizing he was out! This is an angle of this play we have never seen before!
