This is my favorite piece in my collection, an original broadside from a negro league showdown on July 4th, 1941. Checks all the boxes for me, super rare as I’ve never seen another one, absolutely beautiful, features one of my favorite characters in baseball history, and has St. Louis ties. This was the first fully integrated crowd at sportsman’s park, largely due to Satch holding out on appearing until the organizers agreed to allow black attendees to sit wherever they could afford.
Painted by St. Louis black artist Spencer T. Banks |
