Elliott Service Babe Ruth/Honus Wagner/etc Photo premium?
 
I just picked up this large photo premium piece this weekend, and was wondering if any board members here have seen another, or others from this company. The photo has a mark in the lower right corner reading Photograph from Elliott Service Co NY. I can't find much about them researching online, other than Hunt Auctions had one dated to 1925, but that one was smaller. Mine is a pretty large piece, measuring 14 by 17 inches. Has anyone encountered this piece before, and do you know if it is a magazine premium, or something else?
Here is a link to the one in Hunts: http://tinyurl.com/RuthElliott
Thanks for looking,
Keith

While I have not seen this one, it is the same size and similar in appearance to ones I have seen that were associated with new events, and/or newpapers. However, those usually had some sort of paper attached to the bottom with the description of the photo or photos. They were a form of advertising. I had several pertaining to the 1912 World Series, and have seen others from later time periods.

hello- I've owned about a dozen posters similar to your example. It looks to be the real deal. I love these large displays from the "Elliot Service"
