Privately printed scorecards
 

Posted By: <b>Bill Todd</b><p>Has anyone ever seen a privately printed scorecard (that is, one not from the team or league)? I just picked up one from 1933, that doubles as campaign literature for James J. Lyons, candidate for Borough President. (Though nowhere does it say which borough!) It's scored for Game 3 of the 1933 World Series, which was played in Washington. My guess is that it was intended to be used by a listener following the game on the radio. (Sorry, I know the images are kind of small.)<br /><br />Bill<br /><br /><img src="http://s42.photobucket.com/albums/e317/birdman42/th_Lyons-front.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://s42.photobucket.com/albums/e317/birdman42/th_Lyons-back.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Chris Counts</b><p>I notice that whenever I type "scorecard" into eBay, I typically pull up a couple "unofficial" scorecards, often pertaining to a World Series game. They're usually quite unattractive and therefore don't sell for too much ... I believe they are vintage, though ... sometimes a newspaper is affiliated with them ...
