Tris Speaker – World Series, 1912

Tris Speaker at the bat during the 1912 World Series at Fenway Park in Boston. We can tell the catcher is a New York Giants by the stripes of his socks and the “NY” logo on his sleeve.

The handwritten note on back identifies this image as taken during the deciding Game 8 of the Series on October 16, 1912.
