1944 Program for a Testimonial Banquet Honoring Pete Gray.
Lot 503. 1944 Program for a Testimonial Banquet Honoring Pete Gray. Gray had played many seasons as a semi-pro before his magical 1945 war-time season with the St. Louis Browns. He was named the Southern League MVP in 1944. The award and the purchase of his contract by the Browns apparently was the impetus for the banquet near Gray’s hometown in northeastern Pennsylvania. The program lists Lou Boudreau, Chief Bender, Roger Peckinpaugh and Jimmy Foxx among the guests. Ex with two binder holes.
Winning Bid $50.
