Item Description
6.75x9.25" glossy news service photo shows four Pittsburgh Pirates in uniform including future HOF members Lloyd Waner (in his rookie season) and Joe Cronin along with Glenn Wright and a fourth player. Reverse side has "The Sporting News" ink stamp and publication notations. The Pirates won the National League pennant this year, which was their second in three years and their last until 1960. However, they fell to the Yankees by way of a sweep in the World Series. Upper right corner has .75" diagonal piece gone. Image remains sharp and bold and displays nicely as Beckett encapsulated and designated "Authentic."
