The last Fall Classic occurrence of an inside-the-park home run until Game 1 of the 2015 World Series, the 1929 championship featured the Philadelphia Athletics, making their first Series appearance since being handily defeated by the Miracle Braves in four straight games in 1914, against the always dangerous Chicago Cubs. The Series would begin on Oct 8th in Chicago, garnering the largest crowd of the 5 games played with just over 50,000 witnessing a 3-1 Cubs loss. Despite a win in the third game at Shibe Park, Chicago went down in defeat in 5, with the Athletics winning their fourth World Series. We have a scored program from Game 2 of the Series, played at Wrigley Field on Oct 9, 1929. Featuring cameo images of all players and an image of Wrigley Field on the back cover, the program is complete including the original tie-string, and remains in gorgeous overall condition, with just very light wear to the covers.
