Dramatic and Rare 1913 Lithographic "Two Stars" Supplement with Honus Wagner and Nap Lajoie.
Lot 32. Dramatic and Rare 1913 Lithographic "Two Stars" Supplement with Honus Wagner and Nap Lajoie. The “Pittsburgh Press” issued the colorful 14” x 20” supplement for the “Pittsburg-Cleveland Series 1913,” an exhibition involving the two teams. Images of Wagner and Lajoie are superimposed on artwork showing a game in progress. Above is a black & white photo showing a capacity crowd at Forbes Field. The supplement has small chips in three corners and along two edges. Tape on the blank back repairs two lengthy tears that have the appearance of creases. Colors remain strong, apparently as originally issued. Whatever technical issues the supplement may have are more than countered by its attractiveness, its scarcity and the importance of its subjects. We have seen only two of these supplements, including this one.
Winning Bid $1,433.
