Sometimes the most mundane images at the time, something that seemed an afterthought that nobody cared about, end up being the coolest. This extremely rare photograph is a perfect example of that truth as it is the only one we have ever seen showing the entrance to Griffith Park in Washington DC including the ticket booths! Taken on the eve of the World Series, this is a side of the ballpark we have never seen in any form. Issued by Underwood and Underwood and stamped on the back, this is being offered here for the first time ever, fresh out of a newspaper archive.
