Copy print of original photograph missing and presumed stolen from the McGreevy Collection. Taken at Fenway Park, the photograph shows mounted police pushing fans back off the outfield in front of the left field wall. Temporary stands were constructed for big games on the grass incline in front of the wall. The incline was named Duffy's Cliff because of Duffy Lewis's skill at playing hit onto the incline.
