Robert Riger, photograph of Yogi Berra, Yankees catcher

Hey guys,
I just wanted to post some of the photographers that I looked into for my baseball project. Robert Riger's work has the same classic, golden age of baseball look I am aiming for with my work. Riger was actually an illustrator, he mostly used his photographs as reference for drawings. His photos are now considered documentary, but they have a simple beauty that I find enhances the documentation.
