Important panoramic photo postcard featuring Forbes Field identified at the bottom as the "World's Greatest Base Ball Park," a strong image of which graces the interior. The panorama measures 16 1/2" x 3 1/2" with an attractive gloss on the photo. The reverse postally unused does exhibit some mild discoloration and staining at the address panel but is otherwise clean. The folding has resulted in heavy creasing to the point where the left panel and right panel has each removed from the card, with an attempt to tape the left panel back together on the reverse. The right panel remains untaped, but fully separated. Early Forbes Field postcards are extremely desirable, and this is a seldom-seen example coveted in any grade.
