Colorful and attractive supplement issued by the Pittsburg Press measuring approximately 20 1/4" x 12 3/4" which features portrait photos of each member of the 1909 Pirates as taken by famed photographer Carl Horner. In addition to the famed T206 image of Honus Wagner Hall of Famers pictured include Fred Clarke and Barney Dreyfus. Each of the images are inset into a stylized arrangement a bald eagle perched atop the image of Dreyfus and a red white and blue background surrounded by a white border. Players are identified along the bottom of the piece. The display is in POOR condition significantly creased and worn with tears and paper notches along with visible surface wear. Several large tears have been repaired with clear tape on the reverse an un-repaired tear is visible along tthe heaviest creases down the center of the piece beginning above the image of Dreyfus. Despite all the wear display value is strong a classic piece containing many iconic images including the T206 portrait image of Honus Wagner.
