Countdown to Chitown 2: Wrigley Field print

Wrigley Field is one of the most famous and iconic baseball stadiums in the U.S. It was built in 1914 as Weeghman Park for the Chicago Federal League baseball team, the Chicago Whales. The Cubs played their first game there on April 20, 1916 and by the year 1921, chewing gum magnate William Wrigley Jr. acquired control of the Cubs. It is known for it's ivy covered brick outfield wall and the iconic marquee over the main entrance as well as the hand-turned scoreboard.
This 8 x 10 print along with all my other Chicago prints will be at booth 229 Sept. 6-7 for Renegade Craft Fair Chicago.
