    Durham and the Rise of the Baseball Card Educator’s Guide Table of Contents Introduction……………………………………………………….2 How to Use this Educator’s Guide………………………3 Exhibit Outline & Explorations……………………………5 Key Exhibit Themes……………………………………………7 Themed Activities………………………………………………8 Key Exhibit Terms…………………………………………….17 Museum of Durham History | History Hub………18 Curriculum Standards………………………………………19 1 Introduction The baseball card. It’s one of America’s most timeless novelties. Today, you might find one in a sporting goods store, in an auction house or even on your smartphone. However, the baseball card wasn’t always a fun collector’s item. In fact, it began as a creative advertising tool for businessmen. The baseball card came about at a time of major change in America. This exhibit examines that change, and demonstrates how the card evolved as social issues shaped communities like Durham. The exhibit will allow students to explore how different historical eras shaped baseball card advertising, and the sport as a whole. Students will also have the opportunity to understand Durham’s role in baseball card advertising. The exhibit draws together five major themes, including: • Technology & Industry • Advertising • Race & Culture • Community Contributions • Leisure in America 2 How to Use this Educator’s Guide This Educator’s Guide will help educators and students draw connections between the historical content in “Durham and the Rise of the Baseball Card” and classroom topics. Prior to engaging with the exhibit, educators should review the exhibit outline, which gives an in-depth overview of the chronology and subject matter of the exhibit. The exhibit outline may also aid you in preparing lesson plans and classroom activities that relate directly to historical subject matter addressed in the exhibit.

Chapter 1 | Chapter 2 | Chapter 3 | Chapter 4 | Chapter 5 | Chapter 6 | Chapter 7 "If They Could Only Get Over The Idea That They Owned Us"12 A look at sports pages during the past year reveals that the seemingly endless argument between the owners of major league baseball teams and their players is once more taking attention away from the game on the field. At the heart of the trouble between players and management is the fact that baseball, by fiat of antitrust exemption, is a http://www.empire.net/~lewisec/Players_League_web2.html Page 1 of 7 Players' League-Chapter 2 7/19/2001 12:12 PM monopolistic, monopsonistic cartel, whose leaders want to operate in the style of Gilded Age magnates.13 This desire is easily understood, when one considers that the business of major league baseball assumed its current structure in the 1880's--the heart of the robber baron era. Professional baseball as we know it today began with the formation of the National League of Professional Baseball Clubs in 1876. The National League (NL) was a departure from the professional organization which had existed previously: the National Association of Professional Base Ball Players. The main difference between the leagues can be discerned by their full titles; where the National Association considered itself to be by and for the players, the NL was a league of ball club owners, to whom the players were only employees.

  • C:\Documents and Settings\Kenneth Walcott\Desktop\Baseball Facts And
    By Tony Parker 2005 Baseball Canada Senior Championship- August 28-28th, 2005 Welcome to the web site of the 2005 Baseball Canada Senior Baseball Championship. Baseball history doesn’t always have to be boring statistical analysis. This is a game that began somewhere in the early 1800’s and was increasingly documented after the first major professional league was founded in the United States in 1876 and Canada has been very much a part of that game as you will find below. In addition to this section we have also created a series of baseball trivia and informationals that will allow you to learn more about the game in what we hope is an entertaining fashion. As few boring stats as possible , because few of us are bookkeepers or accountants. Foxy & Tip Marchildon Too Canadian Baseball is alive and well and has contributed greatly to the Major League game, even if Ferguson Jenkins remains the only Canadian born player enshrined at Cooperstown. You may think that Larry Walker is the lone Canadian to win a Major League batting crown and if so, you would be wrong, but if you weren’t alive in 1887 then you didn’t see a Canadian lad named Tip O’Neill become the first ever triple crown winner in professional baseball history or that legendary U.S. Speaker of the House Tip O’Neill was named after that same Canadian triple crown winner. And did you know that the first player to use a padded glove (Foxy Irwin), the first retired player to start broadcasting games on radio (Jack Graney) and the first no-hitter recorded after the top players returned from service in WW II (Dick Fowler) were also Canadians? Graney also played in the same starting outfield with baseball legend Shoeless Joe Jackson as well as Hall of Fame player Tris Speaker and batted behind Cy Young in his final big league season when Cy was wrapping up his career record of 51 1 wins (Unquestionably baseball’s most unbreakable Major League mark).
