1916-17 Statuesque action photograph of pitcher Lee Meadows in uniform with the Phillies.

Stamped on the back by the International News and in great shape with his name added by a skilled artist at a newspaper. This is his most famous baseball card image and was used for his Collins McCarthy card and American Caramel cards as well.
