November 1904 issue of the Burr-McIntosh Monthly magazine a string-bound publication featuring a host of photos of people and places on the interior pages with each of the piece's 6" x 12" pages removable and suitable for framing and display. While the cover pictures a young Yale football fan the key in this issue is a team photo of the 1904 New York American League baseball team - one of the earliest photos picturing the Yankees. Tha magazine cover and pages are brittle and worn the original string intact but the back cover torn away completely (though still present) and the interior pages exhibiting significant wear the brittle pages shedding small pieces of torn-away edges. At some point in the life of the publication the binding was reinforced by a single heavy staple. The Yankees photo presents well despite the wear. A scarce and desirable publication despite the grade.
