HONUS WAGNER PITTSBURGH PIRATES 1909 WORLDSERIES PANORAMIC TRIFOLD POSTCARD RARE

Description: Pitting the Detroit Tigers against the Pittsburgh Pirates, the 1909 World Series contained the interesting subtext of the game's two greatest hitters - Ty Cobb and Honus Wagner - pitted against one another. Many photographs and even some film from that Series exist; it remains one of the more exciting in history. Also featuring two Hall of Fame managers (Pittsburgh's Fred Clarke and Detroit's Hugh Jennings", Pittsburgh ultimately won the Series in seven games. The Wagner vs. Cobb battle, however, fizzled, with Cobb hitting just .231 while Wagner batted .333 with six stolen bases. Presented here is a beautiful three-panel panoramic postcard measuring approximately 14" in length, featuring the 25 members of the World Champion Pirates standing shoulder-to-shoulder. Featuring Hall of Famers Honus Wagner, Vic Willis and Fred Clarke, the card was manufactured by the R. W. Johnson Studios of Pittsburgh. Not postally used, this example is the finest of several that we have handled over the years, entirely intact, with a strong, crisp image. Wear is evident at the borders and edges, with a bit of creasing along the left side. Age-related toning and minor foxing is visible on the reverse. Still, a lovely example of one of the most desirable of all the Pittsburgh Pirates team postcards, featuring Honus Wagner. This rare and unique item features Honus Wagner of the Pittsburgh Pirates from the 1909 World Series on a tri-fold postcard. It was manufactured by R.W. Johnston Studios and is an original vintage piece. This sports trading card is a must-have for any collector and a great addition to any baseball memorabilia collection. The postcard has a panoramic view, with the image of Honus Wagner in the center. The card also features the Pittsburgh Pirates team and is in great condition, with no visible damage. This original postcard is a great representation of the pre-WWII era and a unique piece of sport-themed memorabilia.
