EDITORS COMMENTS
Bill Carrigan, affectionately known as 'Boston Al,' poses confidently for this full-length portrait taken by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing in 1913. Carrigan, a professional baseball player, is dressed in the uniform of the American League's Boston team. He holds a baseball bat in his right hand, positioned in a ready stance, suggesting that he is about to take a pitch. The photograph captures the essence of the 1910s era, with Carrigan's rough, textured uniform and the grainy, glass negative texture adding to the authenticity of the image. Born on March 27, 1887, in the United States, Carrigan began his baseball career in the minor leagues before making his major league debut with the Boston Americans in 1910. He went on to play for several other teams throughout his career, including the Detroit Tigers and the Chicago White Sox. This portrait of Bill Carrigan is part of the extensive Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress. The studio, founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze in 1896, was known for its high-quality photography and documented many significant events and figures of the early 20th century. The studio's photographic style is characterized by its ability to capture the essence of its subjects, making this portrait of Bill Carrigan a valuable addition to any collection of American sports history.
