Original 1907 photograph of Manager Frank Chance from the Chicago Cubs as he converges with team owner Charles Webb Murphy before the start of the World Series. An impressive image despite the two creases as it captures the most influential of all Cubs personnel at the absolute zenith of their success as a franchise. Success they are STILL waiting to duplicate over 100 years later! Silver gelatin photograph is a new discovery (absolutely original to 1907) and an image we have never seen before in print or its original form. Large and detailed this is a real gem of a find to the baseball historian!
