Brooklyn Dodgers press agent Irving Rudd is joined by two of the franchise’s prized prospects, Sandy Koufax and Jack Langer. The photo was taken by William C. Greene in February of 1955 just before the Dodgers spring training. While Koufax would go on to a Hall of Fame career and would be remembered as the “Left Hand of God,” Langer never made it very far in the minors before retiring after the 1958 season. A great photo that shows the uncertainty of prospects and captures Sandy Koufax at the very start of his career. The Type 1 photo measures 8” x 10” and shows edge wear to the large white border and toning throughout. The back of the photo has the “WM, C. GREENE” credit stamp and “FEB 1955” date stamp along with several handwritten notations and a Sporting News hologram. The photo has been encapsulated and graded a Type 1 by PSA.
