Hi! I know the history of the plate depicting part of Yale baseball from the 1930's: At that time my grandparents owned a place called Kamp Kill Kare in the Adirondaks. They were big Yale supporters who loved baseball too. As part of the summer fun they generated, for a number of years they invited the Yale team to spend part of the summer at the camp. Many days after lunch they had baseball games between two teams comprising a mix of family members, Yale players, and local folks. The plate you have (I have others in the series) shows the Punkies' lineup on a given day back in the 30's. Besides being the team name, Punkies are horrible little midge-like insects that come out of the forest to plague all mortals who have the audacity to do stuff like try to play baseball in the wilderness.
Hope this helps! Tony Garvan |
