Landed a new piece for the Bloomington collection. A neat little snapshot of Clark Griffith and baseball’s first commissioner, Judge Kennesaw Mountain Landis, at the 1924 World Series. I’m certain they’re at Griffith Stadium. The Senators won the series that year (former Bloomer, Paul Zahniser, was on the ‘24 Senators, but didn’t pitch in the WS).

Here is my 1910 Sweet Caporal Clark Griffith pin. Clark grew up in Normal, IL and played for the Bloomington Reds in 1887 and 1888. He went on to have a Hall of Fame career as a pitcher, manager, and executive.
