Default SOLD 1911 World Series Scorecard New York Giants Philadelphia As Wagner Cobb Matty

Very scarce 1911 World Series Score Card put out by Carl Joseph & Co. Merchant Tailors with an orange imprint of their local representative P. Bertelson - Greene, N. Dak.

Measures 13-3/4" x 5-1/8" when opened. The front cover having an image of Honus Wagner, as well as the entire Philadelphia A's team across the top of the front and back, the back having stats for both the American and National League.

Inside is the scorecard, which was scored and then erased, with the New York Giants team across the top.

The center front and back have some of the already acknowledged all-time greats, Ty Cobb, Walter Johnson(both of whom had only been in the big leagues 3-4 years), Ed Walsh and another of Hans Wagner. Many, many future HOFers on this piece, with Eddie Plank, Eddie Collins, Chief Bender, Christy Mathewson, John McGraw, Connie Mack, and Frank Home Run Baker, just to mention a few.

In Good to Very Good condition overall. There is some slight separation in the top center where it folds. I have it in a makeshift holder that suffices, you may want to put it in a frame or a better holder.


Compare against similar on Ebay for $1199.99 (later 1914 version):
