Up for your consideration is an extremely rare program and score card from the June 6th 1924 matchup between the Chicago White Sox and New York Yankees.

Babe Ruth powered his Yankees past the White Sox by slugging his 14th Home Run of the early season and the 252nd of his career.

Hall of fame pitcher Herb Pennock collected his 1st save of the early season.

This program is jam packed with 9 Different Hall Of Fame players including Babe Ruth, Earle Combs, Waite Hoyt, Herb Pennock, Eddie Collins, Red Faber, Ted Lyons, Ray Schalk and Harry Hooper.

Although this program is not scored, we were conclusively able to narrow it down to the June 3-6 Series due to Markle being on the New York Yankees roster. He was sold away on July 22nd. Once we narrowed it down to the series we looked in the program for context clues. On the last page of the program is a list of remaining White Sox home games. Due to the fact that there are no remaining game son the schedule with the Yankees, we can confidently say that this is from the final gam eof the series.

A beautiful example of a 1924 White Sox program.
