Ted Kluszewski in Conversation with Albie Pearson
Description
A slide of a black-and-white photograph of Ted Kluszewski (left) in conversation with Albie Pearson (right). Kluszewski has his hands clasped over his right knee while Pearson listens with his right arm on Kluszewski's shoulder. Pearson appears to be wearing a Los Angeles Angels road uniform, while Kluszewski wears a jacket underneath his road uniform. The background shows an unknown mountain range. The year of the photo is most likely 1961, the inaugural season of the Angels expansion franchise, Kluszewski's last before retirement, and the only season in which the two players played together.
