  • SummaryImage represented is one of a related set (DODG 0257), some of which may also be described in this new record; Two views of fans during World Series game at Ebbets Field; 0256 shows couple in dismay, with fans in background looking on silently; 0257 shows man exulting, with man at right grimmacing. Caption: "Oh-h-h That Resse Man!: Scene at left [0257] is Ebbets Field, fifth inning. Pee Wee Reese has just batted in tying run for Dodgers. Mrs. Lieberman and her husband, Joseph, are in raptures as Yankee fan to their left 'no-noes' prospect of a Brooklyn victory. At right [0256], scene shifts to ninth inning. Reese is up again and there is but one out left in game. He lifts long fly to left field -- the Liebermans are undergoing excruciating agony -- but in vain. Woodling made catch and Yankees marched off field as 1952 world champions."
