Bob Feller Warming-up photograph
Date1945
DescriptionA black-and-white photograph depicting Bob Feller throwing a baseball as if warming up prior to a game. Feller is in the process of making warm-up throws to an unknown receiver behind the photographer. This can be discerned through the lack of strain on Feller's placid face as well as the short follow through of his right leg and right arm which lack the power in opposition to his normally brawny throws during in-game pitching. Based on the uniform details, the photograph was taken in 1945. It cannot be determined from this photograph the location of this photograph. There is a cursive 'Bob Feller' label near his right leg that appears to have been etched onto the negative.
