Lot Essay

Desirable original program is unscored but has handwritten lineup changes which reflect game one played at Comiskey Park. Eddie Cicotte led the White Sox to a tight 2-1 victory in the opening game of the Series behind a home run from Hap Felsch. Expert professional restoration has been performed throughout to secure the bound edge and reverse damage that includes chipping and small tears (to both covers and some interior pages). There are portions of several small stickers which remain in place, or evidence of their removal, on the back cover and in a few places inside. One of the great program rarities of the period with the offered example noted as the only one we have encountered in our 35 year company history: VG (*With note to restoration)
