Default 1908 world series broadside

Has any members seen this??? Is this a One of a Kind?

Friend discovered this in a garment district warehouse in New York City this weekend while cleaning. The owner didn't know much about it. Friend called me and let me take it home to research. Through my photo research on google image, I found the exact photo #3 attached photo of Ty Cobb sliding into home plate with the description posted below.

Broadside/poster size 16 1/2" x 20 1/2" pulled from book of fabrics for display at retail stores throughout chicago. The cubs just won the 1908 World Series. Last time the chicago won the world series until 2016. Star Brand cashing in on the Cubs Winning the World Series shows the Durability of their custom made materials through these action World Series photos.
