This YouTube clip isn't quite pre-war, but I couldn't resist posting it. Not only does it show a great Harlem Globetrotters-like pre-game warm-up (does anybody know who #15 is?), but it's shot in Crosley Field. Most of the clip focuses on the Indianapolis Clowns, but there are a few frames of players from the Kansas City Monarchs as well. I'm curious if there's more footage out there from the same game. For what it's worth, Jackie Robinson played for the Monarchs that year ...

Here's another clip I just found of the same guys. This one's even better. I guess #15 is "Goose" Tatum ...
