The 1960 Pittsburgh Pirates "Beat 'em
Bucs" paper placemats were designed and
distributed by Sentinel printing co. in
Somerset, Pennsylvania. The placemats
were used in a majority of the
restaurants in the borough. They were
in use since the Pirates clinch the
pennant. Placemats such as these were
used by restaurants to keep their
patrons entertained, educated, and
amused while they were waiting for
their meals to be served. They were
meant to be used once and discarded.
Besides being sold to fans by the Sentinel
printing co., they were also made
available free through the Oakland News
publication. The placemat pictured
above headlines "Beat 'em Bucs" with
Pittsburgh Pirates.... 1960 below
followed by a black-&-white team
picture. The bottom right read "Printed
by The Oakland News"
The restaurant placemat pictured below produced by the Sentinel printing
co. is the same but features
advertising for Pittsburg, Downtown,
and Oakland restaurants at the bottom.
There is another version of the
placemat printed by Park Printing,
Pittsburgh, which pictures the 1925 and
1927 Pirates at the top, centered by a
larger 1960 Pirates team photo. The
bottom had "Beat 'em Bucs" in both
corners. Players are also listed.
After the Pirates beat the Yankees in
the 1960 World Series, another placemat
was produced reading "How Sweet It Is"
at the top followed by "Champion
Pittsburgh Pirates 1960" then the team
photo, with the same advertising at the
bottom.
