Carrigan's own scorebook from 1896-1898. Dropped it taking in off the wall.

It is full. About 30 games, most kept score by Carrigan. Lewiston/Auburn vs Surrounding teams. I can take some pics of individual games.

This is what I believe to be the official scorekeeper's scorebook for Shibe Park (Philadelphia) for games from the end of the 1945 season and first half of 1946. It has the home games for the Phillies and the A's. The cool part is that it also has several games between the Negro League teams including the Philadelphia Stars, Newark Eagles, New York Black Yankees, Memphis Red Sox, Chicago American Giants and Baltimore Elite Giants. This was a pivotal time just at the end of WWII, when many ballplayers were coming back from military service, and just before Jackie Robinson began the integration of baseball in 1947 (which was the beginning of the end for the Negro Leagues). Some of the Negro League players include: Willie Wells, Monte Irvin, Biz Mackey, Don Newcombe, Roy Campanella, Buzz Clarkson, Harry Simpson Larry Doby and Leon Day.

It also contains a St. Louis Brown's 1945 game with the "One Armed Wonder" Pete Gray in it. I find it interesting if not a little humorous noting that Pete Gray came in to pinch hit in the ninth inning for catcher Frank Mancuso. Could you imagine hearing from your coach, "you ain't hitting worth a crap so we're putting in the guy with one arm to hit for you".

No idea how to get it all in one shot. Copyright 1882 on the book.

This is a team scorebook from Clarion, PA that includes some negro league teams: 1930 Homestead Grays, 1931 Homestead Grays & Baltimore Black Soxs, 1929 Havana Red Sox and 1948 Homestead Grays. The game below pitted the power house Grays against the Black Sox. The rosters included Oscar Charleston, Josh Gibson and Martin Dihigo.
