Gansett Goodies are here!



The Gansett Goodies from ebay have arrived! And they are all so wonderful! I love piecing together the history of the park and the different views of it. I only wish I would have been alive to see it in it's glory.

I have four new programs from the 60s, a RI brochure from 1941 that has two lovely pictures of Gansett in it. A season pass for 1976, a win photo of Banditos Reward, a photo of Judge Dooley and Walter O'Hara at the Gansett construction site in 1934 and a HOLIDAY magazine which has a picture of Gansett in it from 1941.


Here are more pictures.

More 'Gansett goodies from ebay!

There have been many wonderful 'Gansett items on ebay lately and I have managed to snatch a few more to add to my growing collection.

I won another racing photo. This time in color and from 1976. I also won some old ticket stubs from the 70s, 4 racing programs from the 60s, a photo of Judge Dooley and Mr. O'Hara at the track construction site in 1934, a 1941 RI state Brochure with pictures of 'Gansett in it, a 1949 HOLIDAY magazine with a picture of 'Gansett in it. I've done fairly well!

There were many other items that I would have LOVED to have owned, but I was sadly outbid on alot of them. I can't be greedy and buy everything. ;)

I will be sure to upload pictures of my newest addition of Narragansett Park racing history when they are all here.

Thanks for reading.
