Time: 12:00pm - 3:00pm
Location: JCJ Memorabilia-Water Tower Place-7th fl., 835 N. Michigan Avenue (Chicago, IL)
In conjunction with JC J Memorabilia, Welcome to the Official Site of Negro League Legends and Barnstormers Baseball, Gary Crawford of PGC MarketLInk, and the Illinois Toys for Tots Non-for-Profit organization, the baseball Legends are excited to have this opportunity of not only meeting with their fans, but also knowing that they will be able to help some of Chicagoland's needy children just in time for the Holiday Season.
Unwrapped toys will be collected by the fellas and then donated to Toys for Tots.
As for the fellas themselves, they will sell their memorabilia at discounted holiday prices and all will feature free autographs.
Among those who will attend are:
- Hank "Baby" Presswood, 87, - was an infielder that played for Buck O'Neil. He alos played two years (1948 & 1949) with the Cleveland Buckeyes and then two more years with the Kansas City Monarchs - both as a shortstop & 3B - between 1950 & 1952.
He then worked at Inland Steel (now part of MITTAL Steel - the world's largest steel company) in East Chicago, Indiana. He resides in Englewood today.
- Johnny "Lefty" Washington, 78, - a Morgan Park Grad - played for Ted "Double Duty" Radcliff where he finished the 1949 campaign with the Chicago American Giants, and then in 1950 he pitched for the Houston / New Orleans Eagles.
He served his country in Korea (Marines) and earned two Purple Hearts.
Johnny then worked for many years with the City of Chicago's Water Department.
He resides in Bronzeville today.
- Nathan "Sonny" Weston, 78, - a Bloom High School Grad.
Jerry Colangelo (the former majority owner of the Phoenix Suns, Phoenix Mercury of the WNBA, the Arizona Rattlers of the Arena Football League and the D'Backs of MLB) is also an alum of Bloom. Soon Sonny will join Mr. Colangelo into the Bloom High School Hall of Fame.
Sonny played outfield for Ted "Double Duty" Radcliff with the Chicago American Giants. He then was the "last cut" on both the 1951 Brooklyn Dodgers and the Chicago White Sox.
He later worked for 40 years with FORD. He re sides in Sauk Village today.
- Robert "Bob" Wiggins, 75, played outfield for the Raleigh Tigers in both 1959 and 1960.
Where he was also fortunate enough to have played with many of those who were featured in what was then called, the 28th Annual (and officially last) East-West Negro League All-Star Baseball game.
He was a part-time instructor for the Gary Railcats when the club first started. And was employed by Corn Products better known today as Best Foods for 40 years.
Today Bob lives in Argo Summit.
