A year after Ray Kroc of
McDonald's purchased the San Diego Padres,
the team with the
area McDonald's restaurants held a Fotoball night on Tuesday, July 30,
1974. The first 10,000 youngsters 14
years of age and under received the
promotional item. The fotoball is a
plastic replica of a baseball with six
color photos of Padres players and
Ronald McDonald on it plus the schedule
of the remaining Padre home games.
Eight more "stick-on" Padre player photos were available during the month
of August with youngsters being able to
pick up two new photos each week by
dropping by any McDonald's restaurant. The "stick-on" photo discs measure 2
3/8" in diameter, and have a notch at
the bottom so they could be filed the
plastic baseball-shaped holder. A hinge
on the plastic baseball allows it to be
flipped open to view the photo discs.
