EDITORS COMMENTS
Bullet" Joe Bush, also known as Leslie Ambrose Bush, was a prominent figure in the world of baseball during the early 10s of the 20th century. In this photograph, Bush is seen in his full length, dressed in the uniform of the Philadelphia American League team. The image, created by Harris & Ewing, captures the pitcher in a dynamic pose as he prepares to throw the ball, his concentration intense and his muscles tensed. Bush's nickname, "Bullet," was a fitting one, as his pitches were known to be fast and powerful. He made his Major League Baseball debut with the Philadelphia Athletics in 1908, and went on to have a successful career, playing for several teams including the Detroit Tigers and the Chicago White Sox. This photograph, taken in 1913, is a testament to Bush's skill and athleticism on the baseball field. The image, with its high contrast and sharp detail, brings the past to life, transporting us back to a time when baseball was a beloved pastime and heroes like "Bullet" Joe Bush graced the fields with their talent. The photograph was taken by Harris & Ewing, a renowned photographic studio based in Washington D.C. The studio, which was founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze in 1902, was known for its high-quality glass negatives and its ability to capture the essence of its subjects. This particular image is part of the Harris Ewing Collection, which is now housed in the Library of Congress in the United States. The photograph is a reminder of the rich history of baseball and the men who made it great. It is a treasure for baseball enthusiasts, historians, and anyone who appreciates the beauty and power of a well-captured moment in time.
