The Grand Rapids Chicks baseball team was one of fourteen unique women's baseball teams representing fourteen different Midwestern cities. The teams played from 1943 to 1954. The wooden wall plaque in the collection is from 1953, a pennant victory year for the Chicks. The baseball cards picture players from the AAGPBL and indicate where they played as well as their statistics. The scrapbooks contain newspaper articles and memoirs from Risinger's tenure with the Grand Rapids Chicks. The photographs include a view of the Bigelow Field fire on July 16, 1952, and a few images of Woody English. The newspaper articles concern Risinger or the Grand Rapids Chicks. Game programs include a special program from spring training in Cuba in 1947.
