    Description

    UP FOR GRABS IS A GOOD TO VG IMPOSSIBLY RARE 1919 BOSTON BRAVES VS NY GIANTS PROGRAM/SCORECARD FROM JIM THORPE'S LAST YEAR IN BASEBALL. WHAT IS REALLY COOL IS THAT THORPE WAS TRADED TO THE BRAVES ON MAY 21, 1919, AND THE BRAVES ONLY HOSTED THE GIANTS IN TWO SERIES AT HOME - JUNE 28 AND SEPT 24-27. LAST GAME THORPE PLAYED IN MLB WAS 9/25/19 AND THAT WAS AGAINST THE GIANTS. SO THIS PROGRAM IS FROM ONE OF THOSE TWO SERIES, POSSIBLE FROM HIS LAST GAME BECAUSE HE IS IN THE LINEUP AND HE DID HAVE A HITON 9-24-19 BUT DIDN'T PLAY IN ALL THE GAMES AND BOX SCORED ARE NOT COMPLETE FROM THE SERIES. PROGRAM IS FRAGILE BUT TOGETHER, SEE DESCRIPTION ABOVE OF BOTTOM LEFT AND RIGHT CORNERS ISSUES. THERE ARE ALSO A COUPLE OF MINOR CHIPS ON BACK COVER. SATISFACTION GUARANTEED. GAME FROM BRUSH STADIUM IN BOSTON, THORPE BATTING 6TH FOR BRAVES AGAINST HIS OLD TEAM, THE GIANTS. THIS IS THORPE'S LAST YEAR IN BASEBALL. FINDING ANOTHER ONE OF THESE OR ANY THORPE BASEBALL PROGRAM IN ANY CONDITION EXTREMELY DIFFICULT. THORPE CONSIDERED GREATEST ATHLETE OF ALL-TIME. RABBIT MARANVILLE ALSO ON BRAVES, CHASE AT FIRST FOR GIANTS, KLEM MENTIONED AS ONE OF UMPIRES, UNSCORED. THORPE IN RIGHT FIELD. SEE SCANS. BUYER PAYS .00 SHIPPING WITH INSURANCE. AN INCREDIBLE ADDITION TO ANY VINTAGE PROGRAM COLLECTION.
