Louisville Anzeiger - May 31, 1928 |
UPDATE: Tony L. asked if I spoke German. I know just a few words and phrases. I transcribed the ad and ran it through Google's Translate.
My transcription:
Parkway Feld aus der VogelschauThe translation:
Der Spielplatz der Colonels, aud dessen Tribunen tausende jahrlich dem nationalem Spiel des Baseballs beiwohnen.
In Anerkennung des Wohlwollens des "Louisville Anzeigers" und der Unterstutzung dieses Sportes seitens seiner treuen Leser, die Louisville Baseball Co.
Parkway Field in bird's eye
The playground of the Colonels, on the tribune thousands annually to the national game of
Baseballs attend.
In recognition of the benevolence of the "Louisville Anzeiger" and the support of this sport
by his faithful readers, the Louisville Baseball Co.
The blog about old photos of Louisville, 502Louisville.com, has a few shots of Parkway Field.
If you can't get enough of the German language in the above ad, here's a baseball story for you.

Do you Read German?
ReplyDeleteHonus Wagner aside, Germans don't strike me as attentive to baseball, but clearly that wasn't always the case.
