  • PLAY BALL! MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL in BLOOMSBURG Did
    PLAY BALL! MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL IN BLOOMSBURG Did you ever dream of seeing major league baseball in Columbia County? It happened once in the past. During the recent American League Divisional Championship series between the New York Yankees and the Detroit Tigers, a few Columbia County long-time baseball fans were reminded of the series played between those same two teams at the Bloomsburg Fair in October 1925. The two major-league teams were scheduled for a three-game series during Fair week. They played on an improvised field on the racetrack infield in front of the grandstand. Each squad brought to town only the bare minimum of players; the Yankee pitchers when they were not on the mound played in the outfield. Two games were completed; the third day’s game was rained out and couldn’t be rescheduled because the teams left town for an engagement in Wilkes-Barre. The Tigers won both games, but both were close, exciting contests. The games were slated at 10:00am each day so as not to conflict with the trotting races held in the afternoons. Apparently, the Fair Board was hoping that the major leaguers would draw folks to the Fair in the usually-slack morning hours. And the scheme worked – the games drew upwards of 10,000 fans each day. At the time, the grandstand capacity was only 2,000, so the other fans crowded the railing around the oval track. In 1925 the Yankees were in the middle of their storied 1920s championship era. With Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig as mainstays, this was arguably the greatest baseball team ever assembled.

  • Baseball Day Two Oct 1, 2009 775
    766. Wyatt Earp 1870 Signed Subpoena Resourceful, to say the very least, Wyatt Earp wore the hat of farmer, buffalo hunter, miner and boxing referee (among other endeavors) long before embrac- ing his role at the O.K. Corral. The offered display is an incredibly scarce “Wild West” find: a legal docu- ment signed by Earp. To begin with, Earp’s penning is among the most rare of men of his ilk. Sweetening the pot further is the fact that this bold signature was exe- cuted in a lawman’s capacity. All of 21 years old with volumes of lawless activity still years ahead, Earp, acting as the Barton County, Missouri local constable, penned this subpoena to be served to one Mr. Thomas G. Harvey, informing said party that he would have to testify within a fortnight in the case of Missouri vs. Thomas Brown. Arranged in a handsome 25-3/4 x 17- 1/2” wooden frame, the 7-3/4 x 4-3/4” original docu- ment (shown on the reverse, penned entirely in Earp’s hand) is displayed below a photocopy of the front so that both sides can be viewed simultaneously. On the reverse, Earp has inscribed: “I have served the within summons upon the within named Thomas G. Harvey by reading the same to him this Feb 28, 1870 - W.S. Earp, Const.” The black-ink fountain pen content is crisply executed with Earp’s endorsement projecting (“9-10”) quality. The piece is affected by a small tear at the far left, (3) tiny slashes near the upper portion and a horizontal compacting fold.
