Issued over a 17-year period between 1901 and 1917 these attractive supplements were blank-backed black and whate photos that were included with each issue of the weekly men's magazine. The supplements featured not only baseball players but other athletes actresses models and other subjects appealing to the readers of a men's magazine. The oversized (11 1/4" x 16 1/4") pieces are due to their thin paper and large size very difficult to find in premium condition frequently torn folded heavily creased and with tears to the thin paper. Attractive horizontal team photo featuring the 1913 Philadelphia Athletics featuring Hall of Famers Eddie Plank Home Run Baker Chief Bender Herb Pennock Connie Mack and Eddie Collins. Some wear is evident particularly along the bottom edge the vertical fold also exhibiting some light staining. Still an attractive photo of one of the great teams of the era.
