JSA George Gibson Signed Photograph with Inscription (George Burke Photograph). This photograph also has inscriptions written in the hand of Gibson. The first inscription reads "To my friend Walter J. Danahy "Gibby"" He signed the photograph and then wrote Pittsburgh Pirates 1905-1916 player. 1920-22 Manager 1930-32 manager. This is great photograph of Gibson in his Pirates uniform. Also, this 8 x 10 photograph is special because it was taken by famous photographer George Burke of Chicago. Gibson first signed a pro contract in 1903 and developed his talents in Buffalo, New York of the Eastern League and in Montreal before joining the Pittsburgh Pirates two years later on July 2, 1905, at age 24. He had a strong throwing arm and led National League catchers in fielding percentage several times. Gibson played in the Major Leagues until August 20, 1918, 12 years with the Pirates and two years with the New York Giants, appearing in 1,213 games. Known as a developer of young pitchers, Gibson later managed the Pirates (1920-1922, 1932-1934) and the Chicago Cubs (1925). On May 9, 1921, under manager George Gibson, the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the London Tecumsehs 8-7 at Tecumseh Park before 3,500 people in an exhibition baseball game. Before the game, Gibson and his team is presented with a silver loving cup by the London Kiwanis Club. Gibson thrills the locals by catching the opening inning with his 1909 battery mate Babe Adams and singling and scoring a run in his lone at-bat. London Mayor Sid Little entertains the team that evening at his home.
