Incredible 1916 photograph of the superstar battery of the Brooklyn Dodgers showing Hall of Famer Rube Marquard conversing with early Native American Chief Meyers. Pictured in a rare uniform that was only used for a short time in 1916, the image quality is off the charts and was taken by talented photographer George Grantham Bain. Silver gelatin masterpiece is one of the best images of the duo out there. Note, there is another version of this photo taken at the same time by Charles Conlon meaning that the master was right there with Bain when this image was taken. Condition and quality make this a perfect 10/10!
