LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!
My husband is a huge Red's fan being from Cincinnati. I will ask him to see if he has any useful information. Marge died several years ago, she probably would have known lol.
Hello, I think the emblem came off a seat. In some stadiums,mostly the older ones such as Croslsey Field, the first and last seats of each row on the aisles had a team emblem. I hope this helps.
Hi Brad,
That's a neat item. I have a few others like it. They were attached to the aisle seats at old Crosley Field. A lot of fans would request these emblems instead of the heavier complete seats. They were usually torched off by one of the stadium's demolition crew. Would you mind discussing it further? My Email address is tcgamble@gmail.com
Thanks,
Chris
