Bob Feller is one of the most incredible stories in baseball history, almost too incredible as he has for some reason become vastly underrated considering his accomplishments both on and off the field. A Major League Superstar while still in High School, A War Hero, and one of the greatest Pitchers in Baseball history! The offered "head to toe" profile photograph from NEA is a striking example of how photography can capture your imagination. From the look of Bob's face to his posture, the angle of the image and the contrasting light and dark tones, this photo is a work of art! Dated during April of his first full (rookie) year in the Big Leagues, the clarity of the image is incredible while the condition does exhibit some creasing and a few light pinholes. A masterpiece of baseball photography, this originally sold for $661 in our June 2014 auction!
