Christy Mathewson Arms in the Air
Description
A slide of a black-and-white, full-length photograph of Christy Mathewson with arms raised and legs spread. Mathewson is wearing a baseball glove on his left hand and a baseball uniform. He appears to be warming up before a game. The photograph is from foul territory on the first base side of the field, looking out to the outfield where several fans are seated in bleachers. He wears a dark cap, a gray baseball uniform with no letters or logos, and a baseball glove on his left hand. An opposing player or umpire is in the background. Advertising above the bleachers is partly obscured but includes "Morriso..." and "Able..." Outfield wall advertising is, "Whit..." A flag flies from the outfield stands. It is seen just above Mathewson's head and outstretched arm.
