1911 Max Rigot Jumbo Three-Panel Panoramic Postcard of Comiskey Park.
Lot 21. 1911 Max Rigot Jumbo Three-Panel Panoramic Postcard of Comiskey Park. Neither words nor a picture in the catalog can do this magnificent postcard justice. We have not seen anything quite like it before. Measuring 5” x 24”, this triptych black & white postcard says “American League ‘White Sox’ New Ball Park” in the center at the top. It provides a panoramic view of the grandstands, the field with a game in progress and the Chicago skyline. The ballpark opened on July 1, 1910. The postcard has been professionally reinforced at the two folds; these repairs are noticeable only on the back. Otherwise, creases make the card technically grade g-vg. Its appearance and eye appeal are much, much better. As a display item, it is absolutely stunning.
Winning Bid $200.
