This is a 1936 Original Rookie Photo of the Cleveland Indians Hall Of Fame
Flamethrower - Bob Feller. This original ROOKIE season photo was taken on
July 28th, 1936 just 9 days after his major league debut on July 19th. The
photo measures 6.5" by 8.5" and is in great condition with a bold clear image
of the 17 year old youngster. It does have a couple of small wrinkles and
a 3/16" tear on the left border. The back credits International News Photo
with some typical pencil marks and glue stains. A superb Bob Feller collectible
that would be difficult to equal. This is a real keeper.
