Bob Feller Pitching photograph

Date1936
DescriptionA black-and-white photograph of Bob Feller throwing warm-up pitches prior to a game. Feller's body contortion shows that he is in the middle of the throwing process. His left-stepping leg carries the majority of his weight while his right plant leg is rises to go forward during his follow-through. His right throwing arm is extended forward and slightly blurry, while his left glove arm is away from the camera. The stadium remains unidentified without a caption or discernible features within the photograph. There is both black-and-white photographers' paint surrounding Feller potentially to create a solid background for posting in a news journal. Based on the uniform, the photograph was most likely taken in 1936.
