Framed to a finished size of 23" x 31 1/2" this brilliantly-colored advertising broadside promotes one of the country's favorite sports teams: the Harlem Globetrotters. Advertising "An outstanding game plus added entertainment features " the event was held on March 10 1957 in the Kingston Auditorium in Kingston Ontario. Founded in 1926 the Globetrotters have long been one of the most famous teams in all of American sports playing more than 20 000 games thoughout their history winning more than 22 000. But yes the Globetrotters have lost games - more than 345 in total. 1957 saw the team celebrating their 30th anniversary touring the world with their brand of basketball entertainment led by the famous Meadowlark Lemon. Oddly enough the 1957 team also included eventual baseball Hall of Famer Bob Gibson. The broadside is in outstanding condition with only mild age-related wear. Note that the frame prohibits us from examining the edges and corners however the piece appears overall to be in EX-MT condition.
