Evangelist Billy Sunday in a typical pose as he spoke before huge crowds in tent meetings across the United States. He was a flamboyant speaker with an athlete's agility. Sunday would often leap upon chairs and tables in order to grab his audience's attention. This photograph has the notation "Close that window please." It also says "Copyright 1908 by C. U. Williams."
