W601 team composite picturing the 1905 Pittsburgh Pirates who finished with a 96-57-2 record, good enough for second place in the National League. 13" x 14" piece features eighteen members of the club, including three future Hall of Famers in superstar shortstop Honus Wagner, manager Fred Clarke and team president Barney Dreyfus. While this is a very attractive example overall, the bottom-right corner does suffer from some curling and the top-right corner has a small fold with just a tiny piece of the tip absent.

NOTE: Though there is inconsistency in the hobby as to the dating of this issue, we have elected to follow the guidance of the Standard Catalog, which lists the date as 1905.
