The Happy Felton Official Radio and TV
World Series Score Book was given away
free by Tydol Flying A Dealers. The 26
page score book features 14 pages of
scorecards, enough to score a 7 game
series. The booklet features; World
Series results, attendance, receipts
and player share. Year by year major
league; pitching champions, batting
leaders, home rum leaders, and how
Major League teams have finished
1901-195. A space at the bottom of the
cover is reserved for information of
the Tydol Dealer giving the booklets
away.
At the beginning of the booklet are instructions on how to score baseball
or softball, and the rules of scoring,
which has a 1951 copyright by Ford C.
Frick, Commissioner of Baseball. Tide
Water Associated Oil Company products
are advertised throughout the score
book; Jet-Action Tydol Gasoline, Vedol
Motor Oil, and Federal Tires.
Happy Felton is mentioned on the cover but nowhere else throughout the
booklet. The Score book was made to
keep score of the World Series while
listening or
watching the game on WOR-TV or the
radio programs.
Happy Felton host of
the Knot Hole Gang was a TV show that
aired on WOR-TV Channel 9, in the New
York area. The show preceded every
Brooklyn Dodger home game from 1950 to
1957.
The owner of this booklet oddly scored a 1927 fantasy game between the New
York Yankees and the Brooklyn Dodgers.
Game 1 of the 1953 World Series played
on Sept. 30, Dodgers(5) vs Yankees(9);
Game 3, Oct. 2, Dodgers (3) vs Yankees
(2), and Game 4, Oct. 3, Dodgers(7) vs
Yankees (3), and Game 5, Oct. 4,
Yankees(11) vs Dodgers(7)
