The Philadelphia Athletics won the American League pennant in 1929, and this panorama captures the team at the height of a season that would end with a World Series title over the Chicago Cubs. Manager Connie Mack, who had built the club around stars such as Jimmie Foxx and Lefty Grove, was known for his dignified bearing in the dugout and his long tenure running the franchise. The team's 1929 success came during the late 1920s, a period when baseball's popularity was surging and the sport drew large crowds to ballparks across the country. Panoramic team photographs like this one were a common way to record a championship club together.
