Leslie Jones Collection
For those who aren't familiar, the Boston Public Library has a digitized version of the Leslie Jones Collection available. Detailed scans of great photos can be browsed. As expected there is a lot of Braves & Sox images but chances are your team came to town during the half century as well. All-star games and old-timers games really add to the star power. Of most interest to this board will be the Sports: Identified [Baseball] section. All of it is searchable. Enjoy, but keep an eye on the clock as time can fly when browsing-

Thanks!
Thanks for posting the link; love that website! I remember when they started adding the red sox and braves images about three or four years ago; I must've spent hours going from page to page looking at every one! The images of the accidents are pretty cool too; interesting seeing a 1940's truck or bus on its side in the middle of the road on a Boston street!

Thanks for posting this, Steve. I love online resources like this...really enjoyable. NYC has a lot of digitized old photos, mostly buildings and city life...haven't found any baseball yet.
Cheers, Steve |
