I love this photo.
Featured is some in-game action on an International News press photo taken by Arthur Sasse (known for his pic of Albert Einstein sticking his tongue out), dated October 4, 1952. (eBay Auction Link) Per the descriptor on the reverse:
Yankee left fielder Gene Woodling scrambles safely back to seconf as Dodger Billy Cox's throw to Hodges beats Hank Bauer in the second inning of the fourth World Series Game. Cox took Bauer's grounder, bluffed Woodling back to second and the nipped Bauer.Unfortunately, the Dodgers would lose this game, 2-0, and eventually lose the series in seven games to the Yanks.
