1921 Dramatic action photograph of Hall of Famer Casey Stengel, better known as a manager, as he showed off his dirty slide at home plate. Taken on opening day between the Phillies and Giants, this shows Stengel coming in high against the team he would later play for at the Polo Grounds. Issued by Underwood and Underwood and stamped on the back with a full paper caption as well, this is one of the finest action photographs of Stengel as a player we have ever seen and it is being offered here for the first time ever, fresh from the archives of Underwood and Underwood.
