Opening Day Auction Closing May 9th

An ideal companion piece to its full-color counterpart (also offered in this auction), the offered artifact likewise features team leaders Schaeffer, Wallace, Sullivan, Chase, Moriarity, Lord, Davis, Lajoie, Doolan, Griffith, Dahlen, Sweeney, Chance, Devlin, Clarke and Bresnahan. Dimensions are 10" x 14" (including the original wooden stick). Aside from some minor soiling, creasing and surface wear, the evidence of handling is mainly relegated to the two corners, where Bresnahan has a bit of paper loss and Schaeffer's cap is missing. Viewing the reverse also shows that the adjacent wrinkle through Wallace and Sullivan was reinforced with vintage clear tape. However, the stick itself is quite well-preserved, and the boldly printed reverse (advertising Sacks & Company of Cheriton, VA) has a rather clean overall appearance.
