1919 Unique photograph of backup Catcher Byrd Lynn from the Chicago White Sox and pictured during their World Series season. Everyone knows that Ray Schalk was the Hall of Fame Catcher for this team, but nobody knows who the backup was and as such his items of Lynn are very rare. The image is clear and nice with some artistic enhancements over his eyes (to create the look of a shadow). This is the only example of this photograph that exists and it presents well with a crease on the upper right corner.
