About this Event
Join us for a showcase of our microfilm coverage of Philadelphia baseball history, with stories about the Phillies, the Athletics, the Stars, and the Hilldale Club.
Read about the 1950 Phillies "Whiz Kids," the Athletics bringing home Philly’s first World Series in 1910, the Hilldale Daisies winning the 1925 Colored World Series, and more.
We'll also spotlight coverage of darker parts of Philadelphia's baseball story, such as the 1903 collapse of the Phillies' Recreation Park, known as the deadliest day in the history of baseball.
Featured papers will include the North American, the Bulletin, the Tribune, and the Inquirer.
