I posted this on the memorabilia side; but I'm in full agreement. I'll take what I can get, and hope more of what I can get is like this. Buck Leonard in the line up for the Grays and a 20 year old youngster named Campanella catching for the Giants:

Agreed - take what you can. That's why I collect team scorebooks that include negro league teams, amongst others. Great history in them and not a lot of competition in collecting them...unlike most other negro league items.

This is the official Shibe Park scorebook from 1945/46 that include the home games of the Philadelphia Athletics, Phillies and the negro league Philadelphia Stars team. Other negro league teams rented out the park as well. Teams included the Stars, Memphis Red Sox, Chicago American Giants, Baltimore Elite Giants, NY Black Yankees and Newark Eagles are all in the book.

The earliest I have containing an African-American team is an 1895 Hagerstown minor league team scorebook that includes three barnstorming games against the Cuban Giants with Frank Grant.

Any wild guesses as to what the "X" "R" could stand for?

I don't know what the markings refer to,. As to any information known om the Negro League one, here is the only clue, if any, on the back of the rppc...

And thanks for the kind words, guys. I had to really pay up for it. Sort of like this early American Indian rppc below. I have never regretted getting great images. I would be surprised to see another exactly like these it but it could happen.
