Championship of the South [caption title]

A wonderful image of the baseball team for the Texas School for the Deaf, following their record season in 1903. The image shows twelve men in uniform and two in suits. Interestingly, two of the uniformed young men are not paying attention to the photographer -- one looks off to the right while another seems to be fiddling with his glove. The verso prints the schedule of games from March to May, noting both the opponent and the score of each team. A fantastic image for baseball fans, Texans, and disability advocates.

Price: $650.00
