Incredible and rare 1933 photograph of Satchel Paige, Negro League pitching sensation from the Pittsburgh Crawfords. While images of Paige in general are not scarce, ORIGINAL photographs from his days in the Negro League are so rare that only a handful exist from the 1930's! The offered photograph is bold and concise with a narrow cut and a crease running along the right side. Quality is great and this is a pose we have never seen before! One of the best early Paige images in uniform that exists. Note the date of 1935 on the back was added later to signify his participation with the House of David Team (probably used for a different story) and the uniform dates this image to 1933.
