Large 1974 photograph of Hank Aaron as the slugger moves past Babe Ruth by sending his 715th home run into the seats. A pioneer in so many ways, Aaron was the first black athlete to break a time honored record and endured the weight of the world throughout the process. You can almost feel the weight being lifted off his shoulders as he knows this one is gone and the record is his! One of the most iconic sports photographs of the era, this is a rare original dated on the front wire caption.
