EDITORS COMMENTS
Legendary athlete Jim Thorpe takes a swing at Polo Grounds in New York City during his time with the New York Nationals (now known as the Giants). This iconic photograph, captured by renowned photographer George Graham "Bain" of Bain News Service in 1913, freezes an unforgettable moment from one of baseball's most storied eras. Thorpe, a Native American athlete and Olympic gold medalist, was already making waves on the diamond when this image was taken. As he steps up to the plate at Polo Grounds Stadium - then home to the New York Giants - Thorpe exudes confidence and poise. His powerful swing is about to unleash chaos upon the opposing team's pitcher. The black-and-white photograph captures not only his athletic prowess but also a glimpse into an era when baseball was king, and players like Thorpe were revered for their skills on the field. This historic image has been preserved by Heritage Images as part of its vast collection of photographs from the early 20th century. It serves as a testament to Jim Thorpe's enduring legacy in American sports history.
