EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1922, we are transported back in time to witness a momentous meeting between two legends of American baseball. On the left, we see Ban Johnson, the esteemed baseball executive, exuding an air of authority and confidence as he enjoys his favorite pastime - smoking cigars. Standing beside him is none other than Babe Ruth, the iconic star player for the New York Yankees. The setting is a bustling baseball game in Washington, D. C. , where spectators eagerly gather to witness these sporting giants in action. The date is April 12th, 1922; early spring brings a slight chill to the air as both men don their suits and overcoats to keep warm during this outdoor event. Johnson's fedora hat adds a touch of sophistication to his appearance while Ruth proudly wears his Yankee cap with pride. Their presence commands attention as they stand together near the dugout, surrounded by fellow players and fans alike. This sepia-toned photograph captures not only their physical likeness but also hints at their larger-than-life personas that would forever shape America's love affair with baseball. It serves as a reminder of an era when sportsmanship and camaraderie were held dear values within Major League Baseball. As we gaze upon this remarkable image preserved by The Granger Collection, we cannot help but feel privileged to catch a glimpse into history – witnessing two extraordinary individuals who left an indelible mark on America's national pastime.
