1920's Fun portrait photograph of Washington Senators "Clown Prince of Baseball", Nick Altrock, in uniform with the Washington Senators. Seen with a sideways baseball cap and a wide grin, this is his most famous post-career image ever taken and it is the work of photographer Charles Conlon. There is handwritten notes on the back by Charles Conlon and it is being offered here for the first time ever. Despite a slight trim from a newspaper archive and some paint around his head from publication, it grades a perfect 10/10!
