Original Type I photo of Hall of Fame pitcher Chief Bender as a member of the Philadelphia Athletics, circa 1911. Bender is pictured warming up on the sideline prior to a game. Three Brown Brothers credit stamps appear on the reverse, along with a few handwritten editorial markings, including Bender’s name, and remnants of the original paper news caption. Although no year is listed, the uniform style shown here was used by the Athletics only between the years 1909 and 1914, a time span that corresponded to the A’s 1910-1913 World Championship dynasty. The photo (6.5x4.75”) is in Excellent to Mint condition. Culled from the legendary Brown Brothers Photo Archive. PSA encapsulated as Type I Authentic.
