I actually asked him about this one time and his answer was long and confusing. I decided to drop it and move on.

I think he meant generic red, white and blue ribbons. I still think even those ribbons add eye appeal, if nothing else.

Really happy to end the year with this. Signed in 1928 as WJ was manager at Newark...the ball is correct Spalding ONL/International League.
