Rather than a single group portrait, this 1931 print assembles separate pictures of the St. Louis Cardinals into one composite, a method used when a team could not easily be photographed together. That season the Cardinals won the National League pennant and went on to defeat the Philadelphia Athletics in the World Series, so the roster was one worth recording closely. Composites like this let viewers compare each player's face and uniform side by side, which makes them useful to researchers of early twentieth-century baseball photography.
