Gorgeous panoramic photo depicting the 1928 Chicago Cubs in a team photo inset in front of a gorgeous photo of a sold-out Wrigley Field. Professionally matted and framed to a finished size of 36" x 21" this large-format piece pictures Hall of Famers Gabby Hartnett Kiki Cuyler Hack Wilson Joe McCarthy and Bill Veeck along with William Wrigley Riggs Stephenson Charlie Root Artie Nehf and more. The photo was taken on Sunday May 13 1928 when the Cubs defeated the New York Giants in front of 48 000 fans at Wrigley the Cubs' 17th victory of the season. The photo itself is tremendous displaying very little wear (though the frame of course prevents us from examining the edges and reverse). An outstanding presentation a seldom-seen photo of the Chicago Cubs just a year from their 1929 pennant.
