An awesome photo of John "Muggsy" McGraw, this 4.5x4.5" black and white shot measures to 5x6.5" including its broad, white border. The verso has a caption typed directly onto it and is dated Sept. 25, 1912, with the photo showing the Hall of Famer in his New York Giants garb. The front is in VG condition with a small stain, and the caption also includes "Photo News Dept. American Press Assn, 225 East 39th St, New York City." Known for his feisty demeanor during his playing and managing career, McGraw piloted 2,763 victories in over three decades on the bench, standing second only to Connie Mack all-time.
