1989 Vintage action photograph of rookie Ken Griffey Jr. from the Seattle Mariners as he watched the flight of his ball with bat in hand. Stamped on the front by photographer Louis Deluca, this is from the archives of the Sporting News and in great shape with one tiny spot of white on Griffey's pants. This is absolutely a 1989 image and it has the appropriate watermarks on the back that were obsolete by 1992. The photo is certified by PSA as a Type 1 and it is one of the few 1989 images to achieve this status we have ever handled. The jersey actually appears to be the same one pictured on Griffey's 1989 Topps baseball card based on the placement of the 'I' in Mariners!
