The other day I was watching one of the Lionel Nation DVDs, the part that had the bonus footage showing the layousts and collections of some of the TCA's pioneer members. One of the men was wearing a Lionel baseball uniform. Anyone on here own one, or know someone who does? Anyone ever even see one? That would be some piece of Lionel history to own!

I have read from time to time references to Lionel's baseball team but have never even seen a photograph of the team in uniform.  However, I have seen a photograph of Lionel's Basketball team in their warm up jackets which is shown In Volume VI of McComas's and Tuohy's Lionel-A Collectors Guide and History, Advertising and Art.  The warm up jackets are really neat looking with the large Lionel Logo on the left breast of each jacket.  Even if smelly and sweat stained one of these would surely bring a pretty penny today. 

I just came across that basketball picture in Volume VI of McComas's and Tuohy's Lionel-A Collectors Guide and History, Advertising and Art and I thought the same thing. The Pennsylvania Railroad also had sports teams and a marching band. Often wondered if any of those uniforms survived.
