All sports agents owe Christy Walsh a great debt of gratitude … as did the original recipient of this remarkable image! It was Walsh who formed the first sports syndicate from a stable of stars he used for licensing and marketing. In turn, he made fortunes for himself and his illustrious clientele. Offered is a magnificent 8" x 10", black-and-white original photograph of Walsh and his 1931 World Series “Syndicate,” including Babe Ruth, Connie Mack, John McGraw, Nick Altrock and Gabby Street. Each man has boldly signed his name in fountain pen beneath his own image. The bottom border is inscribed, “Best Wishes to Zeb Terry - Big Leaguer! 1931.” The photograph is flawless in its aesthetic, with crystal clear focus and unimprovable “10” signatures. Apparent Near Mint to Mint condition. Matted and framed to 15” x 17” dimensions. LOA from PSA DNA.
Magnificent Babe Ruth, Connie Mack and John J. McGraw 1931 World Series Signed Photo - With Christy Walsh, the Sport's First Agent!
