Joe Cronin Watches Lou Boudreau Sign as Boston Red Sox Manager


Description

A slide of a black-and-white photograph of Boston Red Sox player-manager Lou Boudreau and Red Sox general manager Joe Cronin. Boudreau, on the left, and Cronin are both sitting at a desk and are wearing suits and ties. Boudreau is holding a pen in his right hand and has his left hand on his new contract to serve as manager. The contract is on the desk, with additional paperwork in front of Cronin. Cronin is looking to his right, past Boudreau, while Boudreau is looking slightly past the camera. Two windows are visible behind the men, both covered by closed blinds; the window on the right is partially open. A description on the slide reads, "signs with Red Sox as manager."
