Original, from-the-camera, one of a kind glass plate negative features New York Giants Hall of Famer Ross Youngs from early in his career in the late 1910s. Taken at the Polo Grounds in NY, Youngs is shown fielding during warmups in this 7x5" specimen. In his nine seasons, Youngs helped the Giants to four NL Pennants as well as World Series titles in 1921 and '22. Great find from the depths of the famed Brown Brothers photo archive.
