1919 Extremely early studio quality photograph embossed in the corner by the photographer and showing Hall of Famer Rogers Hornsby from early in his career. Hornsby was a fantastic hitter but he was more than just a bat as he was ranked among the best fielding second basemen in the game as well. The photographer is G.E. Palfrey of St. Louis and his dry stamp is present on the corner adding a nice touch with the image presenting in nice shape with note to some pin holes at the corners being the only flaws. Images of Hornsby before 1920 are rare and this is a rare uniform style for the team as well!
