1910 Rare early photograph of Kan Yen, the catcher of the Chinese baseball team touring America. One of the only images of a member of this team we have seen, it represents the globalization of the American national game of baseball. The image bears the stamp on the back from Paul Thompson and it presents beautifully with note to some wear on the upper right corner.
