This 1917 team photograph of the Cincinnati Reds shows Hall of Fame pitcher and baseball icon Christy Mathewson sitting front and center. Photo measures approximately 11 x 14" and appears to have been hand-trimmed. Lower left corner is loosely attached; upper left corner heavily creased with a 1/2" gash on the edge. "1917" is printed in white on the bottom edge just below Mathewson; "Boellinger 21-W -- Libert" printed in white is cut off at lower right corner. Pencil writing on back identifies some of the players.
