This panoramic group portrait shows the Washington Senators posed as a full team, a format that let the photographer fit an entire roster into one wide frame. The picture dates from between 1909 and 1932, a stretch when the Senators were a fixture of the American League and the Walter Johnson era made the club well known. It comes from the National Photo Company Collection, whose staff documented Washington, D.C., and its sports and civic life in the early twentieth century. Team photographs like this one were often sold to fans and players, so they capture how baseball clubs presented themselves to the public.
