Even though the 1929 Chicago Cubs were defeated by the Philadelphia Athletics in the 1929 World Series, there is no question that the special squad will go down as one of the best Cubbies teams in the franchise's history. Offered here is an original panoramic photo featuring the 1929 team, and their home, Wrigley Field. The detail and artistry rendered on this 10" by 38" showpiece is ready for framing and display. Exhibiting VG condition with some minor wrinkling, the folds in the proper areas, and the smallest of tears on the edges, this piece features the following players: Hornsby, Cuyler, Grimm, Root, Blake, Horne, Grampp, Moore, McMillan, Nehf, Carlson, Cvengros, Beck, Schulte, Blair, Taylor, Harnett, Heathcote, Gonzales, English, Malone, McCarthy (manager), Land and Burke (coaches), Wrigley, Veeck and Seys (team executives) and Pipper (announcer).
