EDITORS COMMENTS
Step up to the plate with Frank E. Smith in this print from Bain News Service's archives! Taken in Cincinnati during the National League season of 1911, this photograph captures the pitcher in mid-action, his uniform a crisp white against the lush green backdrop of Crosley Field.
As one of the earliest professional baseball players to don the iconic reds jersey for the Cincinnati Reds, Frank E. Smith was an integral part of Major League Baseball's National League during its formative years. This photograph not only showcases his impressive pitching skills but also provides a glimpse into a bygone era when America's favorite pastime was still finding its footing.
Bain News Service, founded in 1898 by George Grantham Bain, was one of the first news agencies to utilize photography as a means of storytelling. Their extensive archives offer unparalleled insight into the lives and times of individuals like Frank E. Smith - men who helped shape America's sporting landscape during an era marked by innovation and excitement.
This print is more than just a snapshot; it's a window into history, offering fans and historians alike a chance to relive the thrill of early 20th-century baseball.
