Q: In regard to Phillies broadsides

[Mark70Z]

I've seen a few of these Philadelphia Phillies broadsides relating to an annual charity game between the Phillies and some other MLB team played at Connie Mack Stadium. The earliest broadside I've seen was the 21st Annual Game where the Phillies played the Detroit Tigers. The top of the sign reads, "Help 50,000 Youngsters Play Sandlot Baseball." This particular game was held on May 5, 1969 and pictures some of the Phillies players and Tigers players. I have the next years game, which is the 22nd Annual Game broadside, where the Phillies played the Baltimore Orioles.

So my question is, is there a listing of all the charity games played and were there broadsides produced for all of the games (or a portion of the games)? Also, when did these charity games end? I figure a die hard Phillies collector would have some information on these particular signs.

Any help would be great!

Maybe a picture of the 1970 broadside would be of some help.

I have seen these before, specifically the 14th Annual game which was played between the Phillies and the Twins.

Is this something you would be interested in selling/trading? If not, do you have any other Phillies pieces? Please contact me if you are!

Wes,

Thanks for the response on the 14th Annual game between the Phillies and the Twins. I was trying to obtain a listing of all the annual games between the Phillies and other MLB teams that they were playing, but as you can see by the lack of response to the thread that people either do not know or not willing to share. Definitely thought a advanced Phillies collector would have some information on these pieces since I know the one's that I have seen picture predominant Phillies players of the day. Do you happen to have a picture of the 14th annual game piece?

I'm not really interested in selling this particular item at this time and really don't have any other interesting Phillies items for sale/trade; sorry about that.
