1903 World Series program sells for $241,500 (AP)

LOUISVILLE, Ky. ? A program from the first World Series game has sold at auction for $241,500.

Hunt Auctions says the program was sold Saturday at the Louisville Slugger Museum.

Company President David Hunt said there was enormous demand for the rare 1903 program from the series between the Boston Americans and the Pittsburgh Pirates, which Boston won.

He said he was "aware of only one other copy of this 1903 World Series program, and that copy resides in the Baseball Hall of Fame."

The program is well-preserved with its bound edge intact. It features pictures of Pittsburgh Pirates stars including Hall of Fame shortstop Honus Wagner. The item sold for 5 cents at the game

Other auction highlights included a Pete Rose-autographed, 4,000th-hit baseball that sold for $66,700 and a baseball signed by Cy Young that sold for $51,570.
