    Description

    During the 1920s and 1930s, store merchants posted daily baseball results "game boards" in their windows during the late afternoon to draw attention from the public. The games were played during the day, so the results were quickly printed on this thick stock, along with many ads. Here are 4 boards from the 1939 season in which the New York Yankees went 106-45 during the regular season and then swept the Cincinnati Reds during the regular season. One game board is from July 3, one day before Lou Gehrig Appreciation Day at Yankees Stadium. The 4 game dates are June 13, June 23, July 3 and Aug. 15. The Yankees had off days on 3 of those dates, playing only on Aug. 15, a 3-2 victory over Washington. These game boards make great display pieces, especially for a Yankees fan celebrating one of the greatest seasons in team history. FREE SHIPPING.
