“Hunt Auctions is thrilled to present this amazing program from baseball’s first World Series. We are aware of only one other copy of this 1903 World Series program, and that copy resides in the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York. We believe this is one of baseball’s most significant publications ever offered,” said David Hunt, President of Hunt Auctions.  “The program remains in well-preserved condition with the bound edge fully intact. The inside features pictures of Pittsburgh Pirates stars such as Hall of Fame shortstop Honus Wagner.”

In addition to the 1903 program, the Hunt Auctions live auction event will also feature an early World Series program collection from 1905-1930 estimated at $100,000+.  The scarce collection of about 50 programs is a near perfect run of programs from that era.  Some are the only World Series program known to exist from that particular year.
