Default WTT 1935 Wrigley Field aerial photo Cubs/Tigers

I purchased the original negative of a beautiful aerial shot of Wrigley Field from the 1935 World Series between Cubs and Tigers in October 1935. Couple of interesting things about this photo - the left/center bleachers were added for the WS, the centerfield scoreboard is in a different location as it was moved to its current location in 1937. The right field wall was not built yet and it was pre-ivy planting ( also in 1937 ) The marquis sign in front of Wrigley is in place. Great shot of the neighborhood, elevated train and even some early signs in the outfield. 2 sizes 16x20 or 20x30, open to trades.
