This "Baseballs Proud Heritage" Yankee
Stadium paper placemat was produced by
Aatell & Jones Inc., of South Howard
Street, Philadelphia, in 1958. Aatelli & Jones
was a manufacturer of custom and stock
design tray covers, place mats,
dollies, coasters, credit cards, drink
lists, and other related products for
hospitals, hotels, and restaurants.
The placemat cites that "Baseball, in
some form has been played in the United
States for over 200 years ... It's
official birthday is 1839 but many
pre-revolutionary diaries, including
that of John Adams, second President,
contains references to baseball..." It
also covers in short, World Series
history, records held by Babe Ruth,
Yogi Berra, and Frank Frisch.
The placemat also mentions; the late Ed Barrow, in 1939 brought back all
surviving members of the 1927 Yankees
to honor Lou Gehrig at the Stadium... I
has become an annual practice and it's
continuity will be preserved at Yankee
Stadium on August 9, when Old-timers of
the Yankees and Red Sox will meet
before the regularly scheduled contest
of the two current clubs.
Below a
depiction of Yankee Stadium is the
Yankees home schedule from July 5 to
the 20th. At the bottom are New York
Yankee Box and reserved seat prices.
The bottom left corner reads: "Aatell &
Jones Inc., Phila." The "Baseball
Is Our National Pastime" Yankee Stadium
placemat below was
produced by Aatell & Jones in 1957.
