EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, titled "Baseball, Congressional - Lafferty of Oregon And Webb of North Carolina, 1911," captures a unique moment in American history. The image, created by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, features two Congressmen, Abraham Walter Lafferty of Oregon and Edwin Yates Webb of North Carolina, engaged in a friendly handshake while wearing their baseball uniforms. The setting is outdoors, with a lush green background and a clear blue sky, adding to the idyllic atmosphere. Both men are dressed in full baseball attire, complete with caps, jerseys, and pants. Lafferty wears a white uniform with the number "1" on his back, while Webb dons a gray one with the number "3." The photograph is a testament to the camaraderie and spirit of sportsmanship that existed even among lawmakers during this era. It also provides a fascinating glimpse into the fashion of the time, with the baseball uniforms serving as a reminder of the early days of the sport and its integration into American culture. The photograph is part of the Harris Ewing Collection, held at the Library of Congress, and was likely taken during a recess or break from Congressional proceedings. The studio's attention to detail and ability to capture the authenticity of the moment make this image a valuable addition to any collection of American history, baseball history, or fashion photography.
