Historically significant program has been scored neatly in pencil to reflect the events of Game One of the inaugural 1903 World Series played at Boston's Huntington Grounds on October 1, 1903. Interestingly it was the Pittsburgh Pirates who prevailed in game one over the hometown Boston club and their ace Cy Young. Pittsburgh captured a 7 to 3 victory behind the pitching of Deacon Phillippe and the first home run in the history of the World Series by Jimmy Sebring. Neatly scored in pencil and in outstanding overall condition showing only a touch of light handling and storage wear. The spine is fully intact. Arguably among the finest condition of the few programs from this Series known and of further note in that it is in original and unrestored form. Born of its experimental predecessor the Temple Cup Series of the 1890s, the "World's Series" inception in 1903 was the beginning of a significant period of reconciliation between the senior National League of 1876 and the newly formed American League in 1901. The overwhelming success and popularity of the inaugural series in 1903 cemented the desire of the American public to relish in an annual contest to determine the champion of their National Pastime.
