1929 Portrait photograph of dominant pitcher Lefty Grove from the Philadelphia Athletics. Artfully posed in front of the fencing behind home plate, this is one of the only image of Grove from his championship season of 1929 that we have offered. Issued by the Associated Press and with a full paper caption on the back, the photo is bold but has some wear from news-room use over the years. Images of Grove are underrated as he is tough to find compared to his contemporaries and his record should place him at the very top of the all time great list with Walter Johnson!
