EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Baseball, Congressional - Teams And Crowd: Byrnes, James Francis, Rep. from South Carolina... 1917," is a fascinating glimpse into American history. The image, created by renowned photographers Harris & Ewing, captures a moment of relaxation and camaraderie among US politicians during a Congressional baseball game. In the foreground, we see three prominent politicians of the time: James Francis Byrnes of South Carolina, John Jacob Rodgers of Massachusetts, and Pat Harrison of Mississippi. Byrnes, dressed in a baseball uniform, is seen in mid-swing, poised to hit the ball. Rodgers, wearing a suit and hat, is seen in the background, holding a handkerchief to his face, perhaps shielding himself from the sun or the dust kicked up by the game. Harrison, wearing a suit and holding a cane, stands near the grandstand, watching intently. To the left of the image, we see a crowd of men and women, some wearing hats and holding programs, all eagerly watching the game. The grandstand is filled with spectators, both black and white, men and women, Democrats and Republicans, all united in their love for the game of baseball. This photograph is a testament to the enduring power of baseball as a unifying force in American culture and politics. It also offers a rare glimpse into the lives of these politicians outside of their political roles, revealing their humanity and shared interests. The photograph is part of the extensive Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, a treasure trove of American history.
