1916 Large portrait photograph of young Dave Bancroft from the Philadelphia Phillies in uniform and posing at the ballpark. This is his most famous photo ever taken and was used for several early baseball cards! Stamped on the back by Underwood and Underwood, this photo has creasing, pinholes and wear, but the image is clear and it presents better than the technical grade. This is the only example of this photograph that we have ever seen and it is being offered here for the first time ever!
