Default What would your fantasy press photo find be?????

You are at a flea market thumbing through some old newspapers and falling out is a large envelope. Inside, there it is, a press photo, of Ruth or Cobb or Gehrig, or whomever, and it is your fantasy find.
Because many may select the same photo, the back is stamped by your favorite photographer.
Who would adorn your fantasy press photo, and what photographer captured that photo?

I would love to find a press photo of Ruth, in his first game with Boston, On the mound, in pitching motion. Photo taken by Louis VanOeyen. VanOeyen because he was the first official MLB photographer for the American League, and his photos seem to be more rare, plus, the tone he uses, to me, has that early vintage appeal.
