A caricature print of the 1909 Pittsburgh Pirates, celebrating their National League pennant, shows the team as exaggerated figures rather than as a conventional team portrait. The Pirates went on to beat the Detroit Tigers in seven games in the 1909 World Series, the first Series win for the franchise, with Honus Wagner and manager Fred Clarke leading the club. Caricature sheets like this were popular in that era, when newspapers and printers turned star players into humorous likenesses for fans eager to follow the season.
