Featured is a remnant of photographic history from the famed Brearley Collection that was offered at auction in 2013. The late Dennis Brearley was a photojournalist who worked for nearly two decades with the Boston Daily Newspaper and he and his wife Susan opened up their first photo gallery at Boston's historic waterfront in 1978.  The colleciton of negatives, rare and vintage photos was at one time the most extensive in existence.

Offered here for the first time since it's initial offering in a 2013 Hunt Auction is an immaculate Acetate Negative on Kodak Safety film depicting Ted Wiliams and Hank Greenberg admiring a bat in the dugout. With little to no menitonable toning or wear, this is a phenomenal keepsake for any vintage baseball or Red Sox collector.  A truly one of a kind 4"x5" relic originally derived from the Brearley Colleciton and now out of the Al Tapper Collection.
