The years 1947 to 1957 were considered
the Golden Age of New York baseball.
Ten out of the 11 years featured a New
York team in the World Series. The
Yankees won 7 titles, the Dodgers, and
Giants each had one. Seven of the ten
years, featured a "Subway Series" with
two New York teams, playing in the
World Series.
The three New York teams often shared sponsored adverting such as pocket
schedules, and ink blotters featuring
local advertisers. Sponsored by The
Savings And Loan Association of
Newburgh, New York, this Boston
Printing Co. ink blotter features The
1955 home schedules for the Yankees,
Giants, and Dodgers. 1957 marked the
end of the "Subway Series" era between
the three teams as the Dodgers, and
Giants moved to California the
following year.
Colors are used
to help identify the team's home
schedule. The Yankee home game dates are in
red with their opponents in black, on
top. The Giant home game dates are in
blue, opponents blue on top. The Dodger
home game dates are in red, with
opponents in red below. The Boston Printing Company also produced these schedules for other teams
in the Boston area.
