National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues 1951 50th Anniversary Plate.
Lot 337. National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues 1951 50th Anniversary Plate. In 1901, a group of professional baseball leagues, such as the Eastern League, banded together to protect their organizations from the war raging between the National League and the upstart American League. Eventually, the NAPBL reached an agreement with the two major leagues and became the umbrella organization for the minors. In 1999, the NAPBL was renamed Minor League Baseball. The 10” plate, printed in green on white, commemorates the NAPBL’s Golden Anni-versary. In the center, it has a classic scene of a batter, catcher and umpire in a vintage, small-to-medium-town setting. Text on the back discusses the history and contributions to baseball of the organization. Nm-m. Scarce and attractive display item.
Winning Bid $50.
