Lot Number: 217
Description: Exquisite 1907 World Series program (at Chicago). Original program issued for game played at the West Side Grounds. Front cover remains vibrant and almost unaffected by age or wear, with only condition flaws worthy of note being a small chip at center of upper edge and top right corner crease (graphic unaffected). Remarkably, the bound edge is near fully intact. The well preserved state is likely a result of decades of storage within an album/scrapbook. The back cover has been expertly cleaned to reverse the effects of mounting with restoration work that appears limited to repair of a small half circle tear and laying down of the printed upper paper surface to its more sturdy backing. Moderate scattered surface loss is confined to the right hand portion of the back cover. Unscored with uniformly clean interior. One of the finest programs within this run with regard to condition and visually appealing front cover graphic: EX/MT (with note to restoration)Estimated Price Range: ($5,000-$7,500)
