- Original authentic and extremely rare 1905 World Series Baseball program. National League Champions New York Giants against the American League champions Philadelphia Athletics, with the Giants winning four games to one.
- Games 1 and 3 were played in Philadelphia; games 2, 4, 5 in New York.
- Each of the five games was a shutout. Three of those, over a six-day span, were pitched and won by Christy Mathewson.
- Before the Series began, the Athletics were already at a major disadvantage. For the Series, they were without the services of Rube Waddell, who was arguably their best pitcher that year. The reason for Waddell's absence was listed as a shoulder injury from some sort of 'wrestling match' with teammate Andy Coakley, though in years since some have speculated that Waddell was actually bribed or 'paid off' to fake the injury and thus not play in the Series.
- Very good condition; creasing throughout including a vertical folding crease through the program. Some light spine splitting at the top and bottom as well as light edgewear throughout. Scored neatly in pencil. Interior pages are complete and intact and largely clean throughout.
- Measurements: 10.25” x 6.75” (9 pages)
