1953 Double weight photograph of the four black star of the Boston Braves, taken just a few years after the game of baseball had been integrated. Included in the fantastic image is George Crowe, Bill Bruton, Jim Pendleton and Sam Jethroe. The team would be joined by another young black star the next year when Hank Aaron would join the squad. A beautiful image in great shape and offered here for the first time ever. The photo has some light creasing at the corners but otherwise it presents beautifully.
