Important 1920 photograph of the man designated to "Save" baseball, Kennesaw Mountain Landis. Many consider the appointment of Landis as the turning point in major league baseball, and this is moment it turned. Captured brilliantly by George Grantham Bain and stamped on the back, this is one of the earliest images of Landis in his new position of ultimate power we have ever seen! Photo displays beautifully with note to a chip and some wear at the right corners.
