Original c. 1921 action photograph of Smoky Joe Wood, the former pitching icon who had transformed himself into a quality major league outfielder for the World Champion Indians. The offered photograph from the International News is the image used to make his 1922 E120 American Caramel baseball card and it is the ONLY original example we have ever seen in any form. The image has his name written on the bottom in pencil which can easily be removed and despite some mild creasing it looks fantastic!
