It's hard to imagine baseball without Harry M. Stevens. He invented the scorecard and also brought the Hot Dog into ballparks as well. In many ways, he is the most important man that never played the game himself! Original 1915 studio photograph posed with a small girl and another man, possibly his son and grand daughter, this is a photo from his own personal estate and is in perfect condition. Double weight silver gelatin photograph is clear and bold making it a perfect 10/10! Images of Stevens are extremely rare with this being one of only a handful known to exist.
