Chicago Cubs Rare Original 1909 Poster-Supplement.
Lot 318. Chicago Cubs Rare Original 1909 Poster-Supplement. Tinker, Evers and Chance are pictured in this 16” x 21” poster. So are Steinfeldt, Reulbach, Pfiester, Kling, Mordecai Brown and even a bear cub using a megaphone! The 1909 Cubs finished second to Pittsburgh in the National League pennant race. The following season, most of these same players brought Cubs’ fans their fourth N.L. title in five seasons. There are no markings to identify this attractive display piece. It may have been issued as a poster or a newspaper supplement. Printed on thin paper that is better than newspaper stock, it has a horizontal fold. It shows edge tears as well as another tear in the upper right, somewhat heavy stains along the center right edge and in the upper left corner, and some lighter stains. There is some tape reinforcement along the back edges. Although these condition factors have to be noted, the poster displays nicely and will make an excellent addition to a vintage Cubs collection.
Winning Bid $572.
