Bill Killefer was a deadball era star that is largely forgotten today but would have been near the top of the list of "best catchers in baseball" about a hundred years ago. A mainstay in the National League from 1909-1921, he was the epitome of a defensive team leader that everyone wanted to have on their squad. Taken by photographer Charles Conlon in 1914 and stamped on the back with his handwritten notes as well, this is the photo that was used to make his Cracker Jack baseball card! The photo has one tiny dent on the left side that looks like a pinhole but it does not puncture the back, otherwise the photo is essentially perfect.
