A prolific collector of Philadelphia ephemera, Helen Beitler had a soft spot for all things baseball—and especially the Phillies.
Just in time for the MLB All-Star Game, this archival display from Drexel and the
Atwater Kent Collection (former Philadelphia History Museum collection, which Drexel is stewarding) focuses on Philadelphia baseball over the past two centuries, from the dead-ball era to local baseball, to the Philadelphia Athletics and Phillies.
This exhibit is FREE to attend.
