1935 Tokyo Giants Research
I'm researching an article on the 1935 tour of North America by the Tokyo Giants. They were invited by Lefty O'Doul to play 50 games against the PCL teams during spring training, but wound up staying until the end of June, barnstorming around the country. I've found many newspaper articles and also a bunch of press photos (much needed for my illustrations) that Mears auctioned a few months ago. I know there are a few guys who collect stuff from the 1934 tour of Japan by the US All-Stars, but just for the heck of it, I was wondering if anyone here has ever collected anything to do with the 1935 tour? They played mostly on the West Coast but in May and June ventured into Nebraska, Michigan and Cincinnati, Ohio. They even went to Mexico although I can't find any games from there yet. Very interesting footnote to baseball history...
