The confluence of Ol' Diz and fellow Cardinals pitcher Bob Weiland pinpoints this 7-1/2 x 9-1/2" photo to the 1937 season, when Joe Medwick won both the NL MVP and the Triple Crown with his .374 average, 31 HRs and 154 RBIs. All three are dressed in street clothes at what appears to be a country-club setting, with their attention focused squarely on a mystery man by the surname of Hayward (who has also signed). Superior image clarity and contrast. Minor faint creasing. Adhered to a backing board. Signatures rate "8-9" strength. Auction LOA from JSA.
