Default Carling Black Label WS signs NBC TV - response to Alan

Hi, Alan. great input. The picture shows Baltimore in the top of the inning. The 2nd page shows Baltimore at the top again. The 3d, 4th and 5th pages show Baltimore at the bottom of the inning. the 6th and 7th page shows the Orioles at the top. NBC covered the game.

So, page 1 shows Orioles batting first so they are visiting. To your comment, game one was at Dodger Stadium on October 5, 1966. Game 2 was again at Dodger Stadium on October 6, 1966. Game 3 went to Baltimore on October 8, 1966. Game 4, Baltimore again on October 9, 1966...gosh that sounds exciting; hope i can experience that again.

Can't be 1969, as Game 1 was at Baltimore so we would be at the bottom of the inning.

Could be 1970, as Game 1 was at Cincinnati and NBC covered the game.

Can't be 1971, as Game 1 was in Baltimore. NBC covered.

Carling Brewery opened in 1961 and closed in 1975. Pinterest has some baseball and football signs with Cleveland and Pittsburg but nothing with the Orioles directly. On Pinterest when look up Carling it shows memorial stadium but nothing as far as this sign and WS sponsorship.

I have a question into the seller. Tom Spiker says he thinks it is 1966...he is a great resource.

Thanks, Alan and Mark.

Charlie
