If You Collect Scorecards or Programs, Show 'em Here!
I did a search, and it doesn't appear that there have been any threads dedicated to scorecards or programs for some time; the few that popped up in the last 7 years or so stopped after 1 page. Let's see if there are still some proud scorecard and program collectors out there that have some items or new acquisitions to share with the group.
I'll start, and admittedly this first post is nothing to get too excited about unfortunately. But it is my latest acquisition and didn't set me back too much. It's a program from Jim Brown's last regular season game, in which he was ejected for fighting, but not before scoring his final career TD and wrapping up another rushing title. Thought there might be more pictures of Brown inside, but there was only one small pic and write-up. Still, it was a program I wanted to add to my collection for a couple of years...so here it is!

1959 NFL Championship program
This was Ted Patterson's it is signed by almost everybody on both teams.. not just on the outside the inside is loaded.
Second Program Is Babe Ruth's HR 701. Written on cover is The most exciting game I ever Witnessed won in 9th inning by rhe fighting Tigers 12 to 11. This 1897 NY Giants is very nice. Ny faced Clevland Spiders and Cy Young.. More to come. |

Ruth & Cobb
Matty - those are beautiful.
Jonathan - I love period notes on old programs / scorecards Jethrod - Brown's last TD is pretty darned cool, thank you for this thread, I love scored programs Here's my (first) post to this (hopefully) long running thread : Sept 11, 1928 Yankee Stadium The Babe hits #49 of the year and #465 of his career, while knocking in what prove to be the game winning runs. In response, Mr. Mack send two members of the 3000 hit club to start a rally in the 9th, but alas, Cobb pops to short in his last career at bat, and Collins does the same (he had 15 more at bats). I'm going to love this thread, apologies in advance for posting too much, but I have over 6000 potential submissions...

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!

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. Jonathan Last edited by bigfanNY; 01-15-2023 at 04:25 PM. Reason: Forgot the Babe ... |

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. |

Cardinal scorecard from September 28, 1930. On the final day of the regular season Dizzy Dean makes his major league debut, pitching a 3-hit complete game victory with five strikeouts as the N.L. champion Redbirds defeat the Pirates 3-1. Dean adds a single and scores a run. He doesn't return to the majors until 1932.

Gary please share some other of your NA and early NL scorecards.
Doug Yes your scorecard from the previous day was HR 700 which exited the stadium and was picked up on the street. Yes Scorecards from games you attended are extra special. Last edited by bigfanNY; 01-15-2023 at 10:37 PM. |

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.

Here you go, Jonathan. First year of National League, 1876. The color of each Chicago player's cap is listed below his name. The different cap colors allowed the players to be identified. There was no team identifier on the uniform and numbers were many years away.

That’s for sure. I have quite a few tickets from games I attended and publications I picked up back then but not many from those early 60s games. I keep looking for that first game stub on eBay. One day I’ll get lucky

You guys are killing me! Now I TOTALLY want to get into programs too. Some of the cover artwork and/or images are just awesome!
I know this is a silly/hard question but what should I expect from a budget POV compared to cards from the same era? Trying to figure out if my scrawny card budget can afford a few cool programs. Great thread!

Amazing scorebooks!
Wow! What a great thread so far!!
I can't believe that no one has ever started a scorebook thread before... FWIW, I have nowhere near the collection that Doug Goodman has (who does LOL?) But, I do have a pretty extensive collection of vintage no-hitter game programs, but rather than post the obvious, I thought I would post a few of the others that I like in my collection. Here is a scored program to HOF Sandy Koufax's NL record of 382K's in a single season in 1965. Mack Jones was K #382. I also have a scored program to Nolan Ryan's ML single season K record of 383K's in 1973. Rich Reese of the Minnesota Twins was K #383. A scored program to HOF Nolan Ryan's ML debut on 9/11/1966. Finally, a scored program to Ryan's 3509K game where he passed Walter Johnson for the All Time ML strikeout record. Tim Blackwell was 3508 which tied WaJo and Montreal's Brad Mills was K # 3509. This scored program is signed by both Blackwell and Brad Mills. Pretty cool! Yes, Guy Bourque, this post is for you! Love the Stoneman 2nd no-hitter scorebook, Guy!

It's a tough question but also I think it's a great question! Especially when one considers what the next big thing in collecting might be. It might as well be programs and scorecards! Personally I hope that programs and scorecards are where tickets were 5 (or so) years ago---somewhat underappreciated and affordable but then ready to take off in the not-to-distant future. I do, however, think you can get common scorecards from the 40's and 50's (featuring some but not all teams) that would be graded NM that would run about the same price as, or even less than common cards from that era in that condition (certainly less than the high series cards).
