Remarkable pair of Major League lifetime passes presented to Dupee Shaw and Wally Schang. Shaw was a professional pitcher in the late 1800s known for his unique windmill delivery and claimed to have been the first to use a wind-up. His pass is on sterling silver by Lambert Bros. Schang was a four-time World Series winner during his 19 years in the Majors, and his pass is gold or brass plated on sterling silver, also by Lambert Bros. They each read "The Major Leagues of Professional Baseball present this Lifetime Pass to [Dupee Shaw or Wally Schang] in appreciation of long and meritorious service" with the signatures of Harridge and Frick occupying the bottom left and right corners, respectively.

Addendum: The Shaw pass is silver plated- not sterling as described. The Shang pass is also plated and not on sterling silver as described.
