Not rare but it is a mix of several things significant to me. I was alive at the time . It's at Wrigley Field, my hometown park and it matched up several top flight major leaguers then in the military with the LA team of the PCL. |

Bruce- good topic, because I also have thought about how little interest is paid to scorecards. Even on this forum we rarely have a thread. And besides the historical value of many key programs, the cover art in many cases is superb and equal to anything I've seen in the hobby. |

An interesting program I have is a 1904 Boston (AL). In it is an ad for the Horner AL composite which includes an illustration of the piece. |

I second what Corey said. The earliet mass produced scorecards first appeared around 1870, and were nothing more than single sheets of heavy paper folded in half, with the scoring grid on the inside and some plain advertising on the outside. By the late 1880's, it wasn't unusual to find 32 page yearbook style programs with engravings and biographies of all the team's players. |

It's probably just semantics, but now that I look at my stuff, I see that I have a "Scorecard" that is a single fold cardboard, a "Scorecard" with multiple pages, and "Scorebook"(s) with multiple pages. No "programs" per se, as all are before 1920. |

I can't believe there are too many of these floating around ... it's a 1905 program from the Pine Tree Athletic Association. Portland, Maine is hosting Lynn, MA. I collect Eddie Grant memorabilia, and he just happened to play in this game. Apparently, he didn't play in the league for long before he was signed by Cleveland later in the same season. By the way, that's Harry Lord, a Maine native and future Red Sox 3rd baseman, playing for Portland ... |
