Description: Rare 1920 Cleveland Indians team photographic print. Huge black and white photographic print by Louis Van Oeyen of the World Champion Indians incl. Wood, Speaker, Covaleskie, Sewell, and a vignette portrait of Ray Chapman at upper left corner who was killed during play in the 1920 season. Clarity and photo registration are typical Van Oeyen with attention to detail at the highest levels, has an 8” repaired crease/tear on left border that could be cleaned and is not prominent with regard to overall size. Has a few other surface wrinkles and creases from scrolling but retains overall clean appearance. 25”x37” matted and framed archivally (not examined out of frame, some imperfections may be present at far edges but not visible). This is one of only a handful of examples known to exist and most certainly were presented to the players. Accompanied by a letter of provenance from Robert Wood: EX (With note to crease repair)
