Who's That Feller?

Can you spot Iowa's Bob Feller?

The Ragister couldn't as they captioned this Old-time photo of the day...

From 1939: This photo is from a series of Des Moines roller derby photos that ran in December 1939. Here's the caption: "Lee Savold, heavyweight boxer, starts the roller skaters off on their derby Monday night at the local Coliseum while Bobby Feller, Indian pitcher, holds the watch."

If you need help, here's the cover of Time Magazine from April 19, 1937.
























I had no clue who Lee Savold was, but you can tell by looking at their faces who's the pugilist in the sweet science and the scientific community is united in that fact.
