EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Billy Orr, Philadelphia Al (Baseball), 1913," showcases a moment in the storied history of America's favorite pastime. The image, created by the renowned Harris & Ewing photographic studio, captures Billy Orr, a baseball player for the Philadelphia American League team, in a powerful and focused stance as he prepares to take a swing at the pitch. Dressed in the uniform of his team, Orr stands tall and confident, his eyes locked on the ball as it approaches. His strong, muscular build is accentuated by the full-length shot, and the crisp details of the glass negative capture every crease in his uniform and every fiber in his baseball bat. The photograph is a testament to the skill and determination of baseball players during this era, as well as the artistry of the Harris & Ewing photographic studio. The studio, founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze in 1896, was known for its high-quality glass negatives and innovative techniques. This image, part of the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, is a prime example of their work. Billy Orr's intense concentration and the dynamic composition of the photograph transport us back to a time when baseball was a source of national pride and enjoyment. The image invites us to appreciate the beauty and grace of the game, as well as the dedication and talent of its players.
