1936 Photograph of NEW National League President Ford Frick as he has a meeting with St. Louis Cardinals executive Branch Rickey in New York. Both would eventually land in Cooperstown at the Hall of Fame and each would have an integral role ten years later in the integration of the game but this is quite possibly the first image of both men together. Issued by the International News and stamped on the back with a full paper caption as well.
