Rogers Hornsby and Hack Wilson anchored a potent 1929 Chicago Cubs lineup that also featured Kiki Cuyler, Riggs Stephenson and Charlie Grimm. Paired with a wealth of winning pitchers, the Cubs sluggers blasted their way to the World Series where they faced Connie Mack’s last great dynasty. This well-rounded squad is represented by this 1929 team composite photo, captioned “Natl. League Champions Our Cubs”. All the players named above are pictured, along with Charlie Root, Guy Bush, Pat Malone, Sheriff Blake, Woody English, Zack Taylor, Gabby Hartnett, owner William Wrigley, team president Bill Veeck, manager Joe McCarthy, chief usher Andy Frain, and many others. Matted to dimensions of 18-1/2 x 16”, this historic photo is seen in a visible window of 12x10. Upon close inspection, light creasing and small blemishes are evident, however these conditions are unobtrusive, and at arm’s length, this piece presents handsomely.
