John McGraw and Christy Mathewson photograph

Datebetween 1913 and 1925
DescriptionA black-and-white photograph of John McGraw, right, captured shaking hands with Christy Mathewson, left. Both McGraw and Mathewson are smiling. Mathewson is dressed in a suit whereas McGraw is dressed in the New York Giants uniform with a sweater over it making it indistinguishable whether it is a home or road uniform. A newspaper clipping affixed to the back of the photograph (not shown) reads, "Big Six - Christy Mathewson, McGraw's prize product, shaking hands with his ex-boss soon after the star pitcher went to Boston..." Based on McGraw's baseball cap and his time with the New York Giants this photograph was taken between 1917 and 1925.
