Between July 22, 1909 and December 11, 1913 the Sporting News included with it weekly publication a baseball supplement commonly referred to as Sporting News Supplements M101-2. The supplements measure approximately 8" by 10" and are sepia in color. There are 100 in the set. Pictured here is the "famous" double play combo of the Chicago Cubs. Joe Tinker at short, Johnny Evers at second and Frank Chance at first. All three are members of the baseball Hall of Fame.
I remember my father talking about his old days in Chicago and hearing about famous "Tinkers-to-Evers-to-Chance" double plays on the radio during Cubs games.
