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.

Up for your consideration is an exceptional example of a 1911 Chicago Cubs Program.

The front cover of this scarce program features an illustrated color portrait of Chicago Cub Hall of Famer Frank Chance.

While there are some minor flaws, the colors are vivid as ever and this piece of Cubs history displays fantastically.

The scorecard portion is not scored, however we were able to pinpoint this to the September 19th to 22nd series between the Chicago Cubs and Philadelphia Phillies. We were able to do so by identifying Rowman on the Cubs roster who was traded to them on August 18 1911. The phillies would not come to Chicago again until September. Furthermore, we feel confident narrowing it down even more to the games played on the 20th and 21st. We were able to do this by looking up the weather reports from those days in Chicago and seeing that there was light rain and clouds in the area. Due to the program showing minor evidence of once being wet in some areas we feel there is a very good chance this was aquired at the game. The weather was clear on the 19th and 22nd so we feel confident in our assessment.

Grover Alexander is listed as the starting pitcher for the Phillies.

This program is absolutely loaded with Hall of Famers including Grover Alexander, Mordecai Brown, Frank Chance, Johnny Evers and Joe Tinker.

These 1911 beauties are elusive and are rarely found in any condition.

A true historical baseball artifact from a time when baseball was just a game.

Up for your consideration is one of the most exquisite Opening Day programs that we have ever had the priviledge of offering to the public.

This is an extremely scarce example of a 1906 St. Louis Browns program from their opening day battle against the Cleveland Naps.

This example shows front cover wear on the bottom right and is missing the back cover, however displays magnificently.

We were able to easily identify the date of this program by scouring through old newspaper articles and matching the lineups and pitchers up.

One of the only time in which Howell and Hess faced off that year was Opening Day April 17th. Along with that, the Naps lineup matches exactly while the Browns lineup is close.

These teams also played at St. Louis on June 22nd and 23, September 9th and 16th, and October 10th. The lineups do not come close to matching up for both teams in almost all instances, and when they do the starting pitchers are both incorrect.

Cleveland went on to take this game 3-1 behind the bat of Nap Lajoie as he and Jackson both collected 2 hits each.

This program is absolutely loaded with Hall of Famers such as Nap Lajoie, Elmer Flick, Addie Joss and Bobby Wallace.

A true historical baseball artifact from a time when baseball was just a game.

Up for your consideration is an extraordinary example of a Negro League Program from the August 28th 1944 Twinight doubleheader which took place in front of 13,136 fans at Shibe Park.

What a day it was, as the Birmingham Barons defeated the Philadelphia Stars 6-3 in game 1 only to get stifled by Satchel Paige and the Kansas City Monarchs 10-0 in game 2.

Satchel Paige fired off 4 scoreless innings yeilding only one measly hit while striking out 4.

The front cover depicts a beautiful black and white photograph of Satchel Paige in the windup, while the back page shows a photo of big bad Josh Gibson finishing his swing.

While the inside of the program is not scored, the fan boldly made notation of game ones score in pencil above the respective team names.

While the program does show some wear, it displays phenomenally to say the least.

These programs are extremely scarce, and the fact that Paige actually pitched in this game with complete certainty makes it a baseball treasure.
