"A's Society Museum acquires Rare 1950 Banner"

To celebrate his 50th year as manager of the Athletics the team had everything in "gold". Items such as programs, yearbooks, decals, uniform patches and lining among other items. However, one of the rarest tributes to Mack's 50th year was this huge banner that was one of many placed on display during the entire 1950 season. This particular banner was on located behind home plate in the loge section. The Society obtained it from the family of one of the employees who were responsible to change the banners as they became frayed and worn. Most were destroyed and only a few are known to exist. This beautiful framed replica measuring 39"x44" is now a part of the Society's ever-growing reminder of Connie Mack, his Athletics and Shibe Park as you enter the Hatboro facility. Our appreciation goes out to the M&H Custom Framing & Gallery of Warminster, Pa for their care and treatment of this nostalgic relic.
