Item # 705949
October 08, 1909
THE CHRISTIAN SCIENCE MONITOR, Boston, Oct. 8, 1909 The front page has a column headed: "Detroit Scores One In First Inning Of Great Game Today" "Tyrus Cobb Crosses Plate on Two Bases on Balls, a Sacrifice and a Single by Delehanty" "Mullin & Adams" "Much Interesting in Comparing Playing of Wagner for Pittsburg and Cobb for Detroit".
The article carries over to page 3 where is much reporting on the beginning of the World Series, including a nice photo headed: "The Great Baseball Park at Pittsburg" & captioned: "Forbes field, where Pittsburg and Detroit met this afternoon in first game of world's championship series of 1909."
Complete in 12 pages, irregular & mostly loose at the spine, minor margin chipping & tears, nice condition. Fragile & should be handled carefully.
