Incredible c. 1941 photograph of two barnstorming pitcher warming up before a battle at the ballpark, side by side and each showing off their throwing motion. To the left is Negro League legend Satchel Paige in his Kansas City Monarchs jersey (c. 1941 dark cap style) and Dizzy Dean who appears to be wearing a jersey that has his name across the front! A double weight image in nice shape overall with scrapbook paper on the back being the only major flaw, this is the only known original example of this photo we are aware of! Two of the greatest pitchers of all time in an extremely rare photograph together!
