Once a catcher, but made his mark as a manager. After a stint at the helm of Pittsburgh, he assumed control of the Philadelphia Athletics in 1901 and continued for 50 years until retirement at the age of 88. Mack is best remembered as a dignified, scorecard-waving leader in a business suit, who won five World Series crowns and built two dynasties. Very nice vintage glossy 7.5 x 9 photo, affixed to a 10.5 x 12.5 mount, signed and inscribed in fountain pen “Best wishes to Gordon Ferris, Connie Mack.” In fine condition, with scattered light crazing to finish and a bit of irregular ink adhesion to beginning of signature. A boldly signed oversized example of the man who dedicated 50 years to America’s favorite pasttime.
