1954 Horizontal action photograph of Willie Mays from the Giants as he spins around after fouling off a pitch in the first game of the World Series against the Cleveland Indians. A fantastic clear image with really exceptional clarity and contrast for the era, this is the work of Charles Payne from the New York Daily News and with a full paper caption on the back describing the action. A unique new discovery from the World Series in which Mays would make "The Catch" that is being offered here for the first time ever!
