Before Lou Gehrig became the Iron Horse of baseball, the first iron man was infielder Everett Scott of the Boston Red Sox. Playing the toughest position on the diamond (shortstop) he was set to play in his 700th consecutive game on May 19, 1921. Issued by Underwood and Underwood and stamped on the back with a full paper caption, this image is clean and bold with perfect clarity despite some chipping and creasing. One of Scott's finest images ever taken.
