, ,
, ,
DATE
Year: 1917
Decade: 1910s
Century: 19th (1801-1900)

The greatest figure of the Pittsburgh Pirates pre-war history signed the presented document to purchase the land where he would build the home where he would live for nearly four decades until his passing in 1955.

The document assigns a sale price of $7,000 for the land at 605 Beechwood Ave., Carnegie, Pennsylvania, and is signed in bold black fountain pen ink at the bottom right, just below that of the sellers.
