Large c. 1949 action photograph of Minneapolis Lakers superstar, George Mikan. One of his greatest images ever taken, this photo exhibits exceptional clarity and contrast. The quality of the photograph is so precise that the individual dimples of the leather basketball can easily be seen. The photo bears a vintage autograph of Mikan as well, which looks amazing! By far, his greatest image that we have ever handled and it presents in great condition with light pinholes at the corners from editorial use.
