DescriptionA black-and-white photograph of Tris Speaker captured after completing a throw. His right, gloved hand is stretched out behind him and his left hand is extended in front of him, hand slightly curled. His right foot rests on the ground, slightly in front of his left. Speaker is looking slightly off to his left, away from the camera. The caption on the front of the image reads, "'Tris' Speaker, Center Fielder / Boston Red Sox / World Champions 1915." Based on Speaker's time with the Red Sox and the uniform in the image, the photograph was taken in either 1907 or 1909.
