It's funny, but if you read the verbiage on the orange card, it doesn't match up to this device at all.

It says, "Moving pictures reproduce the plays instantaneously thrown on a 30 foot screen…You see the batters hit the ball, run the bases, slide, catch, throw, pitcher wind up, curve the ball over the plate…"

Plus it talks about seeing balls hit into the stands and caught by a fan, the crowd cheering, etc.

None of this relates to the device shown above. Of course, the verbiage in the newspaper story matches up with what the card says. Talk about taking creative license. Yowza.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
