As Promised Here are my two newest scorecards in my collection. First an 1895 Baltimore scorecard vs St Louis with McGraw Keeler Kelly Robinson and Jennings. Oh and Connor playing 1st for St.Louis. 12 pages total mostly ads but 2 player pics Scored for the 2nd game of a Double header on September 2nd 1895.
The second is a Game 1 1914 World Series program at Philadelphia. 1914 saw the First 4 game sweep in World series History. From what I was told many years ago it is a fairly scarce program. Filled with pics of the home team Athletics including starting pitcher for game 1 Chief Bender, as well as Eddie Plank Eddie Collins Frank Baker Herb Pennock. Evers and Maranville both started for Boston.

Just acquired yesterday…. 1919 World Series program from game one. This program was there when the Black Sox made their dubious mark in baseball history!

Those World Series programs from 1914 and 1919 are incredible.

Love those 1919 World Series Programs!

Now, to cap off a fantastic 2023 Indy 500, here's a fairly common program, but one that I've been looking for in fantastic condition for some time. Finally found one last week, complete with the insert sheet listing participants and their starting positions!! Mario Andretti was the winner in 1969, and I hope to get it autographed one day.

Nothing historical happened on this date at Yankee Stadium (Aug. 8 1971).

However it was the very first game I saw in person. My father (who wasn't a baseball fan) knowing I was an Orioles fan, took me & my sister to it for my 10th birthday..

My program from the game is long gone, but I had searched eBay for a long time & I finally located a scored copy (now I just need to find a stub to go with it):

Thanks Doug! I can still remember walking through the concourse & up the ramp to see the field for the first time & seeing how green the grass was.
