W601 team composite picturing the 1905 Philadelphia Athletics who finished first in the American League with a 92-56-4 record, though ultimately losing to the Giants in the World Series. 13" x 14" piece features eighteen members of the club, along with Hall of Fame manager Connie Mack. Additional Hall of Famers include three members of the starting staff: Chief Bender, Eddie Plank, and Rube Waddell. This is an impressive example with only very minor toning and hints of smudging along the right edge.

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.
