Ty Cobb and Honus Wagner at 1909 World Series


Description

A slide of a black-and-white, full-length photograph of Ty Cobb (left) and Honus Wagner (right). Wagner is holding a baseball bat with both hands at mid-thigh and is talking to Cobb, who has both hands behind his back. Cobb appears to be smiling at something Wagner is saying. Based on the details of the Detroit Tigers home uniform Cobb is wearing and the details of the Pittsburgh Pirates road uniform and team jacket Wagner is wearing, this image is from 1909. The words "Honus Wagner" are written on the physical slide. See cobbty01_16, wagneho01_11, andwagneho01_34.
