A one-of-a-kind treasure, this glass plate negative of lefty Hall of Fame slugger Home Run Baker comes straight from the camera and captures the A's third baseman swinging for the fences. The image, which is over a century old, measures 5x7" and is a spectacular collector's item. Baker lived up to his nickname, winning four American League home run titles, helping his Athletics win three World Series along the way before finishing his career as a Yankee. Please note: the positive image seen on our website is for illustrative purposes only and does not accompany the negative; only the negative is offered in this lot.
