You may know that Harold “Pee Wee” Reese got his nickname, “Pee Wee” from being a champion marble shooter as a little boy. But do you know where he got his nickname, “The Little Colonel”? The name is based on the American Association ball club in Louisville, for whom Reese was the star shortstop. The team was known as the Colonels. Offered is an exceptional photo of the Louisville baseball club, including Hall of Famer, Pee Wee Reese. Contrast is spectacular. Double matted to 11x17”, framed to 17x24”. Some creasing to photo. VG-EX. LOA from Reese’s wife.
