Description

Color: Black; White A baseball card of Fred Leach of the New York Giants, 1928. The card has a simple black-line border with the player's name and team at the bottom left in a white box. The rest of the card is a photograph of Leach in uniform, leaning over with his hands on his knees, the left having a glove on it. His uniform is light-colored with pinstripes and that hat is the same, but with a dark-colored brim. His socks are darker with three dark stripes and he has dark shoes on. He stands on a playing field, but the background is blurred and not discernible. With abrasions at the top, a crease at the upper right corner, small dents along the top, soiling, and some discoloration, the overall condition is good.
