What Is Your Rarest 20th Century Baseball Program?

[Archive]

Posted By: Bruce Dorskind

Whilst the vast majority of the hobby's attention is focused
on rare and valuable baseball cards, and some attention is
paid to autographed balls and game used-bats, the program
market has remained relatively flat and "under the radar" for
the past 15 years.

We were wondering what you consider to be the most interesting,
(rare) 20th century program in your collection?

Two such programs grace our collection

1. East-West World's Colored Championship- first Negro league World
Series- 1924- photos of all the players, a few autographs- from
the Halper Collection (obtained in 1989)

2.Milwaukee Brewers- 1901 Program - from Tom Slater 1982- to our
knowledge only surviving program from the Brewers initial foray
into the fledging American League. Slater auctioned the program
after it obtaining it from infamous Atlanta collector, Dennis Goldstein
