1949 Portrait photograph of Ruth Steinhagen, the troubled young women who had an obsession with baseball player Eddie Waitkus and took it to the extreme by shooting him in a hotel room. The real life inspiration for "The Natural", this is a creepy image as she appeared in court after the incident. Issued by the International News and stamped on the back, this is a perfect 10/10 that is one of the best images of this important figure in baseball history. Photo also credits the photographer as Ed Wagner as well.
