Recall the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League with this 1947-1954 collection of (4).



The Grand Rapids Chicks were perennial contenders in the AAGPBL, making the playoffs every season during their 1945-1954 existence, and winning championships in 1947 and 1953. Leading off we have a 1947 AAGPBL Grand Rapids Chicks championship trophy. Standing 13" tall, this vintage award features a dynamic female figure leaping for a catch on a pedestal outfitted with an engraved brass ring. The base has a crack, with a spot of adhesive residue, but otherwise this piece remains attractive.



Next up, we have (2) programs, with: 1952 Rockford Peaches (VG+) and 1954 Fort Wayne Daisies (EX).



Rounding this offering, is an original 1954 FW Daisies 8x10 team photo (NM+) with Always Available Photographers, of Fort Wayne credit stamp on the back.

Opening Bid $100.
