Oh man, you had me going for a moment, but if the supplement is from 1904, then it's too early. The Pirates didn't purchase Gibson's contract until June, 1905. If memory serves, in January of 1904 he was still technically with Buffalo, having not yet even been traded/sold/lent to Montreal yet.

Thinking about it now, though, those pictures must be the 1903 World Series teams, eh? That's actually even cooler. Thanks for sharing it!
