1960 Cincinnati Reds Scorecard

My latest round of buying on eBay netted me this amazing 1960 scorecard. It's been neatly scored detailing the match up between the Reds and Pirates on August 21 of that year.  I have always been enamored in the 50s and 60s when players such as Clemente, Snider, Mays, and Aaron played the game and this scorecard provides a snippet into those days of old. Although the Reds won this game, I like the fact that Clemente did hit a home run in the game. On a side note, I've found that these scorecards make a nice backdrop on the bookshelf that holds my Reds bobbleheads. There are five more scorecards that I would like to get from the 50s and 60s to add to my collection and once I have those I'll make sure to share a pic.
