Harridge, Will, 1881-1971

This is a collection of correspondence, subject files, player files, newspaper clippings, press releases and reports which were kept by the American League office.

This collection contains correspondence between F.C. Lane and numerous baseball players and officials between 1911 and 1936. Lane was the editor for Baseball Magazine during that time, and most of the correspondence with players referred to their off-season activities, some of which he included in issues of the magazine. Other themes that received attention included betting in ball parks, the World Series, the Federal League, and World War I.
