A.J. Schumann postcard of the West Side Grounds in 1908 with a view from centerfield. It is interesting to contrast the full stadium with the similar postcard of an empty stadium.
The note on back was written after the Cubs and Mordecai Brown defeated the Giants and Christy Mathewson 4-2 on October 8th in a one game playoff to determine the National League champion. The Cubs went on to win the 1908 World Series.
