Default Walter Johnson Estate Photos and Others

Prices include shipping. PayPal and checks. Items originating from Johnson's scrapbooks will be accompanied by an LOA from Henry W. Thomas, his grandson and biographer.

1) $1,175. Incredible oversized (14"x11") photo of Muddy Ruel scoring the winning run for Washington in the seventh game of the 1924 World Series, taken from the right field roof. Walter Johnson's profile can be seen as he stands on second base watching his baseball dreams come true. There are many great images in this photo, including New York Giants players coming out of their dugouts as they realize the series is about to be over. One of two original prints of this photo that I'm aware of, this copy was presented to Walter Johnson by Fred Perlzman, owner of a top clothing store in D.C. and a leading businessman there. His name is on virtually every banquet and testimonial program related to the Senators baseball team as one of the organizers, and he has inscribed, "Best wishes, Fred Perlzman, The Fashion Shop." The photo is on very heavy paper stock, and has suffered creasing and paper loss around the edges, none of which affect the main image. There is considerable scrapbook residue on the back. An amazing picture from the high point of the career of perhaps the greatest pitcher that ever lived, as well as one of the great moments in baseball history. This picture was used in the book, "Walter Johnson: Baseball's Big Train." LOA
2) SOLD. Wonderful photo of Walter Johnson and Bucky Harris, the "Boy Wonder" manager of the World Champion Washington Senators, wearing the uniforms of that year. Trimmed to 6&1/2"x4&1/2" and stamped "By Joe Roberts, Washington Times." LOA
3) SOLD. Great shot of Walter Johnson batting in the seventh game of the 1924 world series, with Hank Gowdy catching and Bill Dinneen the umpire. Johnson got up twice during his four-inning pitching stint to close out the series, driving a fly ball almost to the wall that would have ended the game in the tenth, then hitting a hard ground ball in the twelfth that shortstop Travis Jackson muffed to put him on first base just before Earl McNeely's hit to end the game. It looks like he's fouling one off here. Trimmed to 8&1/2x5&1/2. LOA
4) $125. Unusual shot of Walter Johnson sliding into second base with unknown fielder from 1926 or 1927, his last two years as an active player. 8&1/2"x6&1/2" and stamped "Hugo Miller, Washington, D.C." LOA
5) $125. Walter Johnson and President Herbert Hoover c. 1930. Trimmed to 8&1/2"x7&1/2" and stamped by Pacific and Atlantic photos. LOA
6) $150. Walter Johnson leaning on his car c. 1925.Trimmed to 8&1/2"x7" with minor scrapbook residue on the back. LOA
7) SOLD. Lot of (2) photos related to Walter Johnson in 1936 famously replicating George Washington's toss of a coin across the Rappahannock River in his youth, in conjunction with the bicentennial celebration of Washington's birth. The 8"x10" picture of Johnson accomplishing the feat is somewhat dark and pretty beat up, with creases, some paper attached, and editor's ink markings, and stamped "Philadelphia Record, Feb 24, 1936," on the back with the picture as it ran in the paper. Included is a 9"x7" AP photo with tag on back from 2/19/36 of Johnson practicing for the attempt on his farm.
8) $150. Walter Johnson with members of the 1924 World Champion Senators at an appearance before soldiers. The Big Train is accompanied by his son, Walter, Jr., Hall of Famers, Sam Rice and Goose Goslin, along with the famous coach/comedy team of Nick Altrock and Al Schacht, Joe Judge, Fred Marberry, and others. 7"x5" and stamped "Buckingham Studios, Washington, D.C.," with scrapbook residue on the back. LOA
9) $125. Wonderful image of President Harry Truman dedicating the Walter Johnson Memorial at Griffith Stadium in Washington in June, 1947. 9"x7" with tag by Acme Photo Co.
10) $125. Here's a pair of photos from Walter Johnson's 1940 Congressional campaign to go with your "Walter Johnson For Congress" pin. In the first, from January 1940, he is shown "tossing his hat in the ring" by announcing that he will run for the seat. The other has him voting in the election of November of that year. Both 9"x7" with stamping and tags.

I like the picture of him in his windup in the snow, looks just like his Cracker Jack card.

Never noticed that, but you're right! "You can take the man off the mound, but you can't take the mound off the man"--or something.

Hey Hank, I don't think you put a price on the Walter snow windup photo.

I have no idea, I was just kidding, I'm sure it's a couple of dogs playing. No doubt some very strange-looking things have been born on farms, though.
