A black-and-white, chest-length negative of player Benny McCoy. The image is of McCoy in his Great Lakes Bluejackets uniform, looking at the camera smiling. Based on the fact that the Bluejackets were a naval baseball team during World War II and McCoy's time away from Major League Baseball due to the war, this photograph was taken between 1942 and 1945.
