Mascots (circa 1956)
07.14.11
I was recently going through some old files and came across a book a family friend had given me a number of years ago: Inside Baseball for Little Leaguers. The copyright date says 1956. I flipped it open to discovery this collection of mascot drawings printed on both the inside front and back cover pages. Too wonderful not to share.

At Fenway Park, they’ve got a list of team logos inside one of the concourses, and have ol’ sock guy in big, full colored glory.

Do you have a higher-resolution scan available? If so please let me know. I would love to make a t-shirt out of the A’s one.

Is that blood on the Red Sox one? How could they have known?

Is there a way to purchase a print of this or have it printed?
