1946 Powerful photograph of the moment where new Hall of Famer Ed Walsh was presented with his plaque at Cooperstown, New York. One of the greatest pitchers of the deadball era, this is the culmination of his life's work and it presents well. This is the only example of this image we have ever seen and it presents well despite a corner chip. The photo has a large paper caption on the back from the International News with an extensive write-up of the event.
