1933 Pittsburgh Crawfords Broadside/Poster
I am looking through some old auction archives and came across the below pictured item a couple of times. I have seen it described as an original period piece and also as a modern reproduction. Can any of you Negro League experts out there confirm that at least one original exists or is this merely a modern fantasy piece?

I can't speak to this particular one, but I believe I've seen another example before that I believed to be legit. This one doesn't have the look of a modern fantasy piece. More likely a reproduction if it's not original.
I can already see the exacto in your mind ready to dissect the crap out of this piece, Phil. Individual card-looking period pieces of Charleston, Gibson, Paige, etc. Pretty amazing item. -Ryan |

Thanks for the input, Ryan. I learned my lesson the hard way and don't do that anymore, too little too late, I'm afraid but..........

Interesting piece. Has the layout of a back page newspaper ad but not the color. Did the description mention the paper stock?

Poster is the way that the paper stock is described, not cardboard.

I can't say whether or not it is original or a fantasy piece, but the first thing I think of when I see this is the Pittsburgh Courier. I do not see a fold in the piece and I have to wonder its origin.
