Incredible 1920's photograph of black fans packed around a barber shop in Harlem as they follow the progress of the World Series. A powerful image that shows how important baseball was to the fabric of America, even if the game excluded the black community, which is the large majority of fans in this image. From the archives of Underwood and Underwood and stamped on the back with a handwritten note as well.
