DescriptionA black-and-white glass plate negative of Philadelphia Athletics first baseman Jimmie Foxx captured in profile while up at bat during a game at Comiskey Park.

Comiskey Park stadium is visible in the background. Based on Foxx's uniform and his time with the Philadelphia Athletics this negative was taken between 1931 and 1935.
