Issued by Sporting Life in 1903, this attractive team composite display features portrait images of fifteen members of the Cleveland Naps set within an illustrated baseball design. All the players are identified in print below their respective images, including Nap Lajoie, Addie Joss, Elmer Flick, manager William Armour, Jack McCarthy, Harry Bay, Bill Bradley, and Earl Moore. The team name, "Cleveland Baseball Club," and the year, "1903," are printed in the center. These team composites were available to fans either by individual purchase or as a complete set in a bound volume. The offered piece (13x14") originates from an album, as evidenced by the three pre-punched holes along the left border. In Fair to Good condition overall, with edge tears (many of which have been repaired on the front and reverse with small pieces of clear tape), moderate creases, and a pin hole near the top border.
