  • Minor League Presidents
    MINOR LEAGUE PRESIDENTS compiled by Tony Baseballs www.minorleaguebaseballs.com This document deals only with professional minor leagues (both independent and those affiliated with Major League Baseball) since the foundation of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues (popularly known as Minor League Baseball, or MiLB) in 1902. Collegiate Summer leagues, semi-pro leagues, and all other non-professional leagues are excluded, but encouraged! The information herein was compiled from several sources including the Encyclopedia of Minor League Baseball (2nd Ed.), Baseball Reference.com, Wikipedia, official league websites (most of which can be found under the umbrella of milb.com), and a great source for defunct leagues, Indy League Graveyard. I have no copyright on anything here, it's all public information, but it's never all been in one place before, in this layout. Copyrights belong to their respective owners, including but not limited to MLB, MiLB, and the independent leagues. The first section will list active leagues. Some have historical predecessors that will be found in the next section. LEAGUE ASSOCIATIONS The modern minor league system traces its roots to the formation of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues (NAPBL) in 1902, an umbrella organization that established league classifications and a salary structure in an agreement with Major League Baseball. The group simplified the name to “Minor League Baseball” in 1999. MINOR LEAGUE BASEBALL Patrick Powers, 1901 – 1909 Michael Sexton, 1910 – 1932

  • Photographs of Minneapolis Lawyers from the Minneapolis Newspaper
    PHOTOGRAPHS ofofof MINNEAPOLIS LAWYERS From the Minneapolis Newspaper Photograph Collection Hennepin County Library Part One Preface By Douglas A. Hedin Editor, MLHP There are several thousand photographs in the Minneapolis Newspaper Photograph Collection at the Hennepin County Library. While most were taken in the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s, a few from earlier and later days slipped in. All are in black and white. They illustrated articles in city newspapers during these decades on a wide range of subjects: politics, sports, crimes, pageants and ceremonies, the military, society, weddings, funerals and much more. There are over 100 photographs of lawyers in the Collection, and several dozen are posted here. It is obvious that many are portraits taken by professional photographers and given to the newspapers for use in articles. Others show lawyers at work. They do not appear in any partic- ular order. The description of each photograph in the Collection lists the name of the lawyer, the date or year of the photograph and sometimes the name of the newspaper where it was published or studio where it was taken. A few have the caption of the photo when it was first published or refer to the event where it was taken. This information is posted below each photo. In some photographs I have added information about the lawyer such as the date he was admitted to the bar. This is taken from the Roll of Attorneys (1858-1870) kept by the Minnesota Supreme Court and available online through the Minnesota Reflections website. The credit for each photograph is to the Hennepin County Library.

I am indebted to my mentor, Nelson Lichtenstein, who has supported me over the course of seven years at the University of California, Santa Barbara. Once he told me that I should write about something that I was passionate about. This was the best advice any graduate student could get at the time when they were unsure about their topic; words cannot express how grateful I am for his wisdom. In addition, I have had the great fortune to work with Elena Aronova who challenged me to rethink my approach to the history of agricultural exchange by examining unusual objects as vehicles of this exchange.
