Default The Three I League W-601

I agree with the OP...W601 is a fascinating issue loaded with obscure teams and players. This is my only example and it is trimmed and pencil marked. But Kruger ( He of the T-206 mystery playing in L.F. ) and the great Hunky Hines as team captain what more could a collector wish for ??

Default 1902 Philadelphia A's Composite mock-up

This is what I believe to be a 1902 Philadelphia Athletics Proof or composite used to make the larger paper composite. It is an actual photograph measuring 7" x 9" attached to a larger mount with the players all notated on the back. This was probably blown up with the names and other text added, however the center is different and Connie Mack has been cropped, but also appears a bit smaller.

It is the only one I have ever seen like it. Obviously several HOFers and importantly Louis Castro.

Thank you to all those who shared their W601's. Love love the 1903 NYAL, And Scott's A's photo, interesting the image used for a button. My 1904 A's same Connie Mack as the proof but sized the same as players. I know that W600's had players in street clothes but I don't ever remember seeing a W601 of a major leauge team with all the players in street clothes.

Here is a full size W601 that shows the same as the image. If you look close the image of Mack is also different.

Jonathan, not of that year I don't believe. So...I started looking on the internet, of course there are a lot of images, but the only one in suits I could find in a quick search was a 1903/04 Fort Wayne. The other 1902's I found were in uniform.

Scott: As I said always nice to learn something new and the 1902 A's seem to be the one Major Leauge team in street clothes. I have always liked the issue and have owned a handful over the years. This is the first one I bought. I found it at the Philadelphia show at Spring Garden College in 1975.
One of the reasons I was interested in them was that they and the W600's fill a gap as there are very few card sets issued between 1900 and the T cards on the 1910's. Another reason is do many of them have Multiple Hall if Fame members.

Default W601's with players in Suits

From memory, the 1902 Pirates are also in suits, which makes sense as they were the NL champs the same way the Athletics were the AL champs. In those days when you won, you were the champions for the following season. Hence, if you won in 1902, you were the Champions for 1903 as shown on the Athletics w601 shown above.

Some minor league teams are also shown in suits, such as Butte.
