INSIDE THE BOOK THERE IS A PAGE FOR EACH PLAYER (SOME ARE DOUBLED UP ON A PAGE) AND ON THAT PAGE ONE WAS TO PUT THE COLORFUL CLOSE-UP STAMP OF THAT PLAYER AND READ THE BIOPIC OF HIS CAREER. THERE IS ALSO A PAGE FOR THE TEAM STAMP AND A STAMP OF MILWAUKEE COUNTY STADIUM. BRAVES MAJOR LEAGUE LIFETIME PITCHING AVERAGES AND BATTING AVERAGES > 1954. THE BOOK IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION, ALL PAGES INTAC AND SLIGHTLY SEPIA-TONED WITH AGE. THE STAMPS THEMSELVES ARE NOW PERMANENTLY PASTED TO THE PAGES 1 AND 32.
FRANKLY, I KIND OF LIKE IT THAT WAY AS IT ALLOWS YOU TO SEE THE WHOLE TEAM AT ONCE (BUT YOU MAY NOT AGREE). TOUGH TO FIND PERIOD AND IN THIS SHAPE EVEN HARDER.
A REAL TREASURE OF THE TEAM THAT MOVED FROM BOSTON WITH SEVERAL OF THESE PLAYERS TO BEGIN PLAY IN MILWAUKEE IN 1953THEN TO ABANDON US IN 1965 FOR ATLANTA. THANKFULLY, HAMMERIN HANK CAME BACK TO US IN THE FORM OF THE MILWAUKEE BREWERS IN THE LATTER PART OF HIS CAREER.
THIS PROGRAM IS BETWEEN THE MILWAUKEE BREWERS AND THE MINNEAPOLIS MILLERS. Hello and thanks for taking a peek at this item. My nickname is Kilted Ken and since my first breath the games of baseball and football, in particular, but all other sports as well, have been woven into the fabric of my life. For that and because of my passion for sporting activity, I have been featured in the likes of ESPN the Magazine, Athlon Sports, BIG Ten Treasure Hunter, Travel Channel, and several other media.
(Check me out on Google, Kilted Ken, if you wish) I say this not to boast but lay some credence for the many, many baseball and football related items I will be posting over the next several months. I have been collecting sports relics for decades and now, ta damy wife has convinced me to downsize! You may benefit from my tragedy!
