I'm a fourth generation Yankees fan and thus genetically predisposed to despise all things Red Sox, but even I had to admit that this was pretty sweet. It's a photographic composite by Carl Horner (his photographs were the basis for a lot of the early 20th century tobacco cards, including the famous Honus Wagner) featuring the team that won the first World Series in 1903. There was some writing (player identifications) on the photo which made it a bit more affordable than it might otherwise have been, but it still sold for over $11,000.
