Cleveland Baseball pickups
This month has turned up some fantastic items for my various Cleveland Baseball collections.
1. 1948 Fahrland Fuel Co. Cleveland Indians "Pocket Wallet " Schedule
2. 1950s Royal Castle Hamburgers 8x10 Premium with Jimmy Dudley and Vic Wertz
3. 1961 Carrollton Playgrounds Boosters Club (New Orleans) Baseball Awards Night program, with Jim Piersall on the cover w/ autograph
I am a sucker for event programs with Cleveland Baseball stars on the cover. In this case, Jim Piersall was invited to present the award to the City Champs for 1961, the "Holsum Sunbeams," winners in the 11yr old division. Jim Piersall played for the Cleveland Indians from 1959-61 and is depicted in his Cleveland uniform. On Oct 5. 1961 he was traded to the Washington Senators. As this Baseball Awards Night took place end of October 1961, they kept the Cleveland pic but took care to note his new team.
If anyone has any other event programs with Cleveland ballplayers in particular, I am interested!
