Displayed is a 1913 panoramic photo of the National League Champion New York Giants that includes rookie Jim Thorpe. The Giants had a season record of 101-51-4 in 1913, winning the National League pennant by 12.5 games over the Philadelphia Phillies, but the Giants were defeated 4-1 in games in that season's World Series. Thorpe, pictured in the top row, seventh from the left, who just a year earlier had captured the decathlon and the pentathlon in the 1912 Olympics, is considered the world's best athlete of the first half of the Twentieth Century. He was an All-American college football star at the Carlisle Indian School and had already played professional football. He struggled in Major League baseball, but the outfielder was a popular drawing card. Christy Mathewson, the great pitcher who won 373 games and was one of the inaugural inductees into the Hall of Fame, is seated in the first row, fifth from the right. Next to the great Matty, in the first row fourth from the right is the Giants manager, Hall of Famer John McGraw. In the top row, sixth from the right, is Hall of Fame manager Wilbert Robinson, then a coach with the Giants. A notable player is first baseman Fred Merkle, in the top row, fifth from the left. He became stuck with the nickname "Bonehead" for his failure to touch second base when he was on first when an apparent walk-off single was hit, and following the custom of the time, Merkle ran for the clubhouse to avoid the crowds of fans running onto the field. The photo was taken by Pach Brothers, of New York City. The panorama is roughly 8.5x20.5", framed to approx. 9.75x22". The photo is in excellent condition, with clear images of the Giants. On the lower part of the panorama is written "New York Giants 1913" and corresponding to his place in the photo, each member of the team is identified by name. The framed photo presents an attractive remembrance of the Giants, a vintage baseball powerhouse, and a famous collection of baseball celebrities.
