Johnny Mize is ready to take his turn at bat on this original 5 3/4" x 8 1/4" original photo. The following appear on back: name written, production notes, "Sep 21, 1953" date stamp and Boston Herald Archives hologram.
The original Boston Herald was founded in 1846 by a group of Boston printers jointly under the name of John A. French & Company. The paper was published as a single two-sided sheet, selling for one cent. This is an original photo, in many cases a Type 1 printed at the time of the event. File copies or type 2 photos are also found, and can be distinguished by the markings on the reverse.
