Walter Alston negative

Date1955

DescriptionA black-and-white negative of Walter Alston dressed in a Brooklyn road uniform standing in a dugout shaking the hand of another man in a suit. Alston is stepping with his right foot out of the dugout. The other gentleman has a partially visible tag in his coat pocket that reads "1955 FIELD." The stands above the dugout can be partially seen with a few people sitting. Based on Walter Alston's time with the Brooklyn Dodgers, uniform style, and the tag shown in the other man's pocket, this image was taken in 1955.
