Just a few months after he and his Reds teammates shocked the World by defeating the stacked Chicago White Sox in the 1919 World Series, captain Heinie Groh was already back behind a desk at a department store and earning a clerk's salary to keep busy. A cool image of the personal life of one of the games biggest stars at the time, this is a unique new discovery that is being offered here for the first time ever! Photo has some creasing and a few pinholes from editorial use but the quality is exceptional with a long and detailed handwritten note on the back. Stamped on the back by noted Cincinnati photographer J.R. Schmidt.
