Wall of Fame Plaques Sponsors

The A’s Society would like to take this opportunity to express our most sincerest appreciation to the following “friends of the Society” whose generosity made it possible for us to maintain intact the twenty five Philadelphia Athletics Wall of Fame plaques. These plaques since 1978 were a part of the Phillies Wall of Fame display at Veterans Stadium. The Phillies Wall of Fame consisted of 25 former Phillies & Athletics who had been inducted through voting of the local media. The Phillies new Citizens Bank Park could not allocate the space required to continue to honor former Philadelphia Athletics and consequently sold the plaques to the Society with all proceeds going to the Phillies Charities. We would like to also thank the Phillies for their cooperation in this most historic endeavor.
