Bob Feller Flexes His Muscle photograph

Datecirca 1937

DescriptionA black-and-white full-length posed photograph of Bob Feller wearing a Cleveland Indians uniform. He is squatting down and examining the flex he is making with his right arm. He is looking away from the camera. There is a partially smudged, stamped date on the back of the photo (not shown) which reads May 7, 19?7. This photo was most likely taken in 1937 based on the style of his uniform and the last digit of the partially smudged date. Part of the background surrounding Bob Feller's head and upper torso has been blacked out with marker. There are pencil markings on the border of the photo (not shown) and on the photo itself that appear to indicate where the photo is supposed to be cropped.
