Monte Irvin Running Home photograph

Datebetween 1950 and 1952

DescriptionA black-and-white photograph of Monte Irvin, dressed in a New York Giants uniform, running into home plate, being greeted by his teammates. The image caption on the reverse (not shown) reads, "Three-Run Homer: Monte Irvin scoring behind Whitey Lockman (25) and Alvin Dark (19) on his home run in first inning against Pirates yesterday. Bobby Thomson (23) was the next batter." Based on when all the players were on the team and the newspaper stamp on the reverse, this photograph was probably taken between 1950 and 1952.
