Aggiungi al carrelloRare signatures of the 1931 Philadelphia Athletics. Boldly signed in pencil by eleven players of the Philadelphia Athletics, including Connie Mack, Lefty Grove, Mickey Cochrane, Jimmie Foxx, Johnnie Heving, Joe Boley, Rube Walberg, Joe Palmisano, George Earnshaw, Jimmie Dykes, and Al Simmons. One page, dated 10-7-31, on a sheet…of stationery with "En Route Pennsylvania Railroad" printed at the head. Ownership inscription of to the top right corner, "Phila. A's Special to St. Louis 10-7-31." In 1931, the Philadelphia Athletics finished first in the American league with over 100 wins and secured the team's third consecutive pennant. They unfortunately lost the World Series to the St. Louis Cardinals. This sheet was likely signed en route to the World Series in St. Louis which took place between 1-10 October, 1931. In near fine condition with mail folds and light bumping. The piece measures 5 inches by 7.25 inches. Rare and desirable. The 1931 Philadelphia Athletics, managed by Connie Mack, were a dominant force in American League baseball, finishing the season with 107 wins and a roster that included stars such as Lefty Grove and Jimmie Foxx. Despite their regular-season success and status as defending champions, the Athletics were defeated in a tightly contested seven-game World Series by the St. Louis Cardinals. The series showcased the strategic acumen of opposing manager Gabby Street and the emergence of Pepper Martin as a postseason star. The loss marked the end of the Athleticsâ brief dynasty and signaled a shift in baseballâs balance of power during the early 1930s.
