Recently, BCB reader eths sent me this video:
Obviously, this film is not mostly about the Cubs, though it’s an interesting historical film about Chicago and Illinois that’s worth a viewing anyway.
First, there’s an error in the title made by whoever put this on YouTube. It’s not from 1947 — scroll in to 1:13 and you’ll see the copyright date on this film is 1953.
What we are interested in here is 15 seconds’ worth of this film that begins at 24:35. There, you will find four brief scenes from a Cubs game.
