1918 Spring Training image of Famous Black Sox Gambler Buck Weaver shown with high collar and undershirt (must have been a cold day) under his uniform as he tries to simulate action for the camera (ball is moving toward his glove). Poignant image of Weaver during happier times while his White Sox Teammates get dressed behind him. Large silver gelatin photograph, this is a poignant piece of history related to the Black Sox showing their love of the game only one year before it all fell apart! Clear and bold, this is a fantastic image with a crease on the left side being the only real flaw.
