Default George Burke 1936 New York Yankees Photo
Posted By: davidcycleback

Burke's address was 847 Belmont Avenue, Chicago in the 1930s-40s. If the stamp has that address, the photo is vintage. With that stamp and the rookie Joe DiMaggio, it would be both scarce in in high demand. Off hand, I don't recall seeing this particular Burke Yankees photo before, but know he was photographing the Yankee player, including DiMaggio, at that time.
