EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, titled "Baseball, Professional - St. Louis Players, 1913," captures a moment in time from the early days of America's favorite pastime. The image, created by Harris & Ewing, showcases a team of baseball players from the St. Louis professional baseball club, likely the St. Louis Browns or Cardinals. The team is arranged in a semi-circle, with one player in the foreground in a full pitching motion, his focus intently on the batter behind him. The other players watch attentively, some with gloves at the ready, others with hands on hips or leaning casually against bats. The photograph is a testament to the rich history of baseball in the United States, a game that has brought people together for over a century. The players, dressed in their uniforms and wearing protective gear, embody the spirit of competition and camaraderie that defines the sport. The image also offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when baseball was a simpler game, played on grassy fields and in front of wooden grandstands. The photograph was taken by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing of Harris & Ewing Photographic Studio, a renowned Washington D.C. photography firm that operated from the late 1890s to the 1930s. The studio's collection includes thousands of glass negatives, many of which document the social, political, and cultural history of the United States during the early 20th century. This photograph, in particular, is a valuable addition to the collection, offering a unique perspective on the world of professional baseball during an era when the game was still in its infancy.
