1923 Silver gelatin photograph of President Warren Harding as he is in town to throw out the first pitch of the baseball season in Washington. Joined in the stands by superstar pitcher Walter Johnson and the manager of the club (Owen Bush) this is only the second example of this photograph we have ever seen. Issued by Underwood and Underwood and stamped on the back with a paper caption as well, the photo looks great with a little scuff on the upper left and some light corner wear.
