Day 121 (April 30, 2020 – 121)
Let’s end the month of April with the good word. I know, I know no religious talk on Net54 so I’ll try to refrain. This bi-monthly magazine is called “the good word” and was put out by Gunther Brewing Company and pictures the Orioles team shot on the cover of the magazine for the April 1957 issue. Brooks is pictured on the back row 10th player over (looking oh so happy). I purchased this magazine from Dan (danmckee) who extended a great deal after a bit of crying and begging on my part (at least that’s what I recall).
