1935 Photograph of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt as he takes in a ballgame to open the season at Griffith Stadium and is greeted by iconic manager Connie Mack. In reality, Mack and Roosevelt were two of the most respected men in America at the time and this was a powerful image with social overtones (during the Great Depression) which extend far beyond baseball. Issued by the Associated Press and with a full paper caption that has come detached but is present nonetheless.
