1912 Large and beautiful portrait photograph of Buddy Ryan from the Cleveland Indians in full uniform. A really good deadball era hitter, it is unusual that Ryan only played a few seasons in the big leagues despite finishing with a .296 average, but her preferred the sunshine of California and starred in the PCL for years! One of his best images on the planet and despite some slight staining from editorial paint, it looks fantastic! A unique image (possibly by Louis Van Oeyen) and offered here for the first time ever.
