Jerry Coleman Leaping
Description
A slide of a black-and-white, full-length photograph of Jerry Coleman, seen jumping in the air during Spring Training. Coleman is jumping with his legs apart and reaching down with his gloved left hand. He is looking over the camera and has his mouth wide open. He wears a New York Yankees road uniform and cap. The background shows a tree line in the distance. A caption found outside of the collection on the back of an identical photograph reads, "---- And Away We Go: St. Petersburg, Florida..... Off to a flying start on Spring Training is New York Yankee infielder Gerry Coleman, making a flying leap for the ball during a workout. Yesterday was reporting date for Yank outfielders and infielders and everyone is now on tap with the exception of Billy Martin, Willie Miranda and Phil Rizzuto. D.3.2.54 Photo by Herb Scharfman"
