Default Pre-black Tuesday photos

The old PRE-WWII examples on the card side are great. Let's show what original baseball photography has to offer in the PRE-GREAT DEPRESSION era. Let's set the date on black Tuesday or prior(Oct 29,1929). Why this date? Well, it just sounded "good". Plus, it was before wire photos really took off
(images were sent/received instantly). The baseball photography world was not a "well oiled machine" yet and I find there are far few great/important images(than in 30s-70s). IMO
Anyway...anyone have any personal examples to share?

I will start with my most recent pickup(1915 Red Sox pitching staff/Ruth) underwood and underwood photo as well as an original 1915 photo of ruth and teammates in the underwood and underwood archives looking through photos(looking at mine of themselves??-prob not but cool to think about it!!).
