Large and incredible 1929 photograph of carpenters hastily building a set of bleachers atop the apartment building across the steet from Shibe Park in anticipation of the World Series. Something like this would never fly today and the bleachers look dangerous to say the least, but the result is a slice of American and baseball history. Issued by Acme and stamped on the back with a nice paper caption as well.
