Old Baseball Scrapbooks

[jingram058]

Well, the 2 Kashins of Ruth and Gehrig are really glued in tight, and whatever kind of glue was used actually stained all the way through. They'll be staying where they are. Same with Gehrig and DiMaggio Wheaties panels. There's also a bunch of r312 National Chicle cards (like paper, very thin and very brittle) in one of them. Someone "corrected" the mis-spelled names. No way to get them out without destroying them. There's all kinds of things in them; schedules, score cards, ticket stubs, photos, full 1941 PM newspaper like a program for the World Series complete with scorecards, a wealth of various "Color Fotos" full size, including 1940 Cincinnati Reds, 1941 Yankees, 1941 Brooklyn Dodgers. A homemade 1932 World Series scrapbook. The fan or kid who put it together was all excited about his beloved Cubs, only to have them swept by the mighty Yankees. Just all kinds of really cool stuff. Pretty much the history of baseball in the 1930s-40s and 50s.
