Known
as the Black Sox scandal in
1919, a conspiracy to fix the 1919
World Series, Chicago White Sox players
conspired with gamblers to throw games.
Newly appointed baseball commissioner
Kenesaw Mountain Landis, posted strict
rules prohibiting gambling. Part of the
fallout in the years to follow was the
Chicago White Sox printing a warning
about gambling on the ball grounds will
result in an arrest. No other ball club
did this.
Starting in 1920, the White Sox
printed on the back of the rain check
portion of tickets; "NO GAMBLING ALLOWED - Persons
offering to make a bet on these grounds
will be arrested, AMERICAN LEAGUE
BASEBALL CLUB OF CHICAGO" There were
two variations of this "No Gambling
Allowed" rain check ticket stub.
The
earlier pictured above was printed up
until 1931. The stub pictured below was
used from 1932 to 1935. The
major difference being font size. From
1936 to 1948 Legal information was
added below "NO GAMBLING ALLOWED -
Persons offering to make a bet on these
grounds will be arrested"
