Spectacular start to this thread! I've seen a few Federal League programs in various threads in this forum but never had the chance to thumb through one myself. The Ruth 701 scorecard is amazing, and the scorecard for Cobb's last at bat---not many of those can possibly exist! I'm sure we'll see some "Holy Grail" items if the thread runs long enough!

I like the scorecards from the 40s and 50s best, especially if they're signed.

I have a collection of early Red Sox programs - here are a few of my favorites (along with a 1904 Browns vs. Boston Americans program)....

Matty The Federal league programs are fantastic. Doug always nice to see anything from your 6k program collection. And the Final day Streak progeams are over the top.. Thank you all for for sharing.
Andy nice group but dig a little deeper and share some of the other Great programs in your collection.
The 48 Babe is a great program from a sad day at the Stadium.

Great programs / scorecards don't have to be older than my parents...

Here is my scorecard from Aug 12, 2018 when the Cubs beat the Nationals on a David Bote Ultimate Grand Slam.

For those who don't know, an Ultimate Grand Slam is when the home team is losing by three runs with two out in the bottom of the 9th and one swing wins it.

This scorecard embarrasses me a bit as I look at it now, as I usually keep a pitch count, and I'm surprised I didn't fill in all the final stats.

It was a pretty amazing moment to see happen,
Doug

I collect programs related to my areas of collecting focus.

One of my favorite areas are barnstorming games.

The Mays All-Stars is from the 1955 All-Star tour led by Mays and Don Newcombe. Many other greats including Hank Aaron, Ernie Banks, Larry Doby and others. In this particular game, Mays hit a walk-off HR.

The 1945 program is from a game that Satchell Paige and Bob Feller faced off. After the game, Feller famously made comments about his belief that he didn't think that Jackie Robinson (who played in the game) was a Major League player. It led to negative feelings for Jackie towards Feller for many years.

I'm an Baltimore Orioles collector working on a labor of love to acquire programs/scorecards of all the O's minor league affiliates since 1954.

This is yet another benefit of reading fantastic posts---one can get impressed, inspired, and learn at the same time. I forgot they are called Ultimate GS's. And your post reminded me of a game that I'd attended in which A-Rod hit a walk-off grand slam in 2007. I was in NY for business but at Yankee Stadium for pleasure that day, and I know I kept both the ticket and the program from that game, and I thought for sure the visitors were down by 3 runs. But...a little research indicated that was not the case. Still, it was great to watch the YouTube video and re-live that walk-off GS again!

Programs (and yearbooks/media guides) are the part of my collection that I enjoy the most. I collect mostly Orioles, Baltimore Colts, and NY Rangers items in addition to ephemera related to games that interest me.

A few years ago I tracked down a program from the first game I attended with my Dad, a 1960 doubleheader at Yankee Stadium versus the White Sox.







This one is from a 1951 exhibition game between the Brooklyn Dodgers and the International League Orioles. The Dodgers barnstormed their way north from spring training. The O's were a Phillies farm club in 1951.





Dodger lineup for the game:
Don Thompson CF
Carl Furillo LF
Duke Snyder RF
Jackie Robinson 2B
Gil Hodges 1B
Roy Campanella C (the scorer listed him as 'Campy', I love that)
Pee Wee Reese 3B
Rocky Bridges SS
Preacher Roe P

What a kick it must have been for the locals to see those Dodgers stars in person.

Here's a pretty beat-up 1953 IL Orioles program, their last year as a AAA club (if you don't count some of those 1990s Orioles teams!



Lastly my oldest hockey program, from a Rangers game in 1943. I picked it up because of the cover art.



The awesome US Armed Forces content was a nice bonus.
