A pair of slugging greats, Richie Ashburn and Roy Campanella, tote bats and pose for this 8" x 10" photo. Reverse includes: Affixed cutline, (2) 1955 stamps and a Seattle Times hologram.
The Seattle Times originated as the Seattle Press-Times, a four page newspaper founded in 1891 with a daily circulation of 3,500, which Main’es teacher and attorney Alden J. Blethen bought in 1896. This is an original photo, in many cases a Type 1 printed at the time of the event. File copies or type 2 photos are also found, and can be distinguished by the markings on the reverse.
