1909 World Series Photo
Posted By: milbroco
Sorry about the failed previous post.....However, this is a 1909 World Series Panoramic Photo I thought many of you collectors may enjoy seeing. The Photo is in 5 parts. The lower left part is the Pirates team with Honus Wagner. The lower right part is the Tigers team with Hugh Jennings, Sam Crawford and some guy named Ty Cobb. The left and right upper parts are the left and right grandstands. The upper middle part is the playing field with the inscription "Cobb at bat, Crawford on deck and Jennings coaching". Nice little mention of three Hall Of Famers. This is probably the highlight of my sports collection. Hope everyone enjoys. |

It's a fabulous piece. Who distributed and printed it? There's small type at the bottom that I can't read. |

Barry, it looks like it was a supplement to the Pittsburgh's Illustrated Weekly. Probably a sunday newspaper supplement. Very nice piece. |

...that the picture isn't in contact with the glass in your frame. That's a fantastic piece, and I would hate to see it damaged by having it stick to the glass! If it is in contact with the glass I'd strongly suggest having it matted in archival matting. |

The folds in it suggested it originated as a magazine or newspaper supplement. Several teams offered similar composite prints, among them the Chicago Cubs for several years at about the same time. My understanding is you could purchase them at the ballpark for one cent, and for another penny they would ship it to you in a mailing tube. At least you can't accuse the Cubs of price gouging their fans. |
