DescriptionA black-and-white candid portrait photograph of Bob Feller looking into the distance. Feller is depicted from the neck up in a Cleveland Indians jersey and baseball cap.

Due to the unposed nature of the image this photo was most probably taken without the knowledge of the subject. The date November 17, 1948 is stamped on the reverse in red ink indicating an approximate creation date of this photograph.
