I have picked up a TON of new stuff, but I discovered this in a junk pile at the National. Previously unknown photo of the 1919 World Series, Warm Ups before Game 1! Miutes before the "Fix was on". Lots of detail under magnification including pre-game festivities like a Reds player and a White Sox player getting their picture taken together, Kid Gleason chatting it up along the third base line etc.

Rhys,
That shot is completely bad@$$. What a great narrative it shows, even without the back-story of the '19 Series fiasco. It was probably taken some minutes before this happened (not mine, btw), too:  It makes me really wonder what the real atmosphere was like before that first game, both on the field and in the stands...one can only wonder what was going through the players' minds. You really found that one in a junk pile? Graig

I just bought it as "c. 1915 Major League Snapshot" and did not even really take a close look at it until AFTER I bought it! It is weird to look at it and wonder what was going through people's minds minutes before the most infamous moment in Baseball History.

Joe, that's an amazing haul...I've never seen that little packaged football set with the players and helmets...that is too cool. Who made that item?
