Ebbets Field Flannels Hollywood Stars 1956 Home Jersey

History: The Mission club of San Francisco moved south in 1938 and became the second incarnation of the Hollywood Stars (the original Twinks moved to San Diego in 1936.) The club was aptly named as celebrity stockholders included Gary Cooper, Bing Crosby and Barbara Stanwyck.

History: The summer of 1938 marked the inaugural season of Hollywood Stars baseball, after the club formerly known as the Mission Reds, representing San Francisco’s Mission District, moved south, tired of sharing Seals Stadium with the better-loved San Francisco Seals. However, when the club arrived in Los Angeles, it shared Wrigley Field with the well-supported Los Angeles Angels and only drew 103,000 total fans in its first season.
