baseball featured two All-Star games in 1943,& 1952. Countless
other important events, including political, professional boxing,
movie stars, National League Football, high school & college
sports, the Negro Leagues, WWII rallies and many other events, too
numerous to list here. Shibe Park's history is a virtual who's who
from all walks of life.
