1940's Famous batting photograph of baseball Hall of Famer Josh Gibson in uniform and showing off his batting form at the ballpark. This is a c. 1960's re-strike from the time period when the Negro Leagues were starting to get some attention from historians. We estimate this to be from about 1969. A nice alternative to a $50,000 original with some significant age to it, this has a little wear and a staple hole at the upper left as well as some editorial tracing from being used in publication.
