Show your Boston Americans/Red Sox memorabilia

Wish I could help Copa7. The 32 Sox were just about the all time low point. Have not seen a 32 team photo. The Sox averaged about 2,300 fans a contest in 32 and they won 43. Then Yawkey saved the day.

Added these to the collection including the 48 phantom.

By the way, I like that Cronin/Speaker photo Blair. That's one I would have grabbed if I saw it. Is that a Horse's Head in the upper left corner?

Here is another 05 Program that I added. I added the back cover as Paragon Park on Nantasket Beach opened that year and it was a big deal. As a kid, our family would go every summer to the amusement park. The park closed in 1985

Thanks 1903 - I am just coming to realize that 1932 SOX photos are rare. Everyone like Champions, but it was also the depression.

I'll keep looking. Like the vintage pennants.

Paragon Park and Nantasket Beach was a blast. In the sixties, we'd take the "Nantasket Boat" from Long Wharf. It was absolutely packed with wild kids. The crew was in Hell! Now, nothing but the original carousel remains. Damn progress. Sadly, the old amusement park on Revere Beach met the same fate. I just hope Canobie Lake stays open.

We were lucky kids. Our offspring got the shaft.
