Honus Wagner Coaching at Carnegie Tech photograph

Dateapproximately 1920

DescriptionA black-and-white photograph of Honus Wagner captured coaching. Wagner is standing on the field, behind the player with both hands on his hips. Wagner is concentrating on the direction of where the ball will be heading. The unidentified player is winding up to throw the ball left handed. Both men are dressed in baseball uniforms, while Wagner's appears to possibly be one of his old Pittsburgh Pirate jerseys. The caption on the back of the photograph (not shown) states, "John Peter Wagner 1920 - Coach @ Carnegie Institute of Technology." Based on the caption and his time spent coaching at Carnegie, this photograph was taken in approximately 1920.
