Default Not even a player...

I have several photos of the scoreboard of the old Sportsman's Park in St. Louis. Home of the St. Louis Browns (now Baltimore Orioles) from 1902-1953 and the St. Louis Cardinals from 1920-1966.

Why the picture of the scoreboard? If you look in the lower left corner of the scoreboard you can barely make out the words "Kirn Signs". George Kirn was my grandfather. The sign company was started by his father. Unfortunately, I never got to meet either of them as they both died when my mom was very young.

Never got to meet them but I get to admire their work!
