Scope and Contents
An exhibit was prepared by then GRHSCC staff member Martha Bloem in 2001, to commemorate the AAGPBL Reunion, held in Grand Rapids, September 6-8, 2001. The exhibit, which as the designer planned it took the form of a large scrapbook, is expected to be given to the AAGPBL Hall of Fame in Ft. Wayne, Indiana. It has signatures of players and others who attended the exhibit opening at the Library. The material included here are mostly color laser copies of materials which were not eventually included in the exhibit. While much of this information comes from elsewhere in the GRPL Collections, some may be new material, received from undocumented donors.
