The Wonder Board
It's 1920 - Radio is a few years away ... There's no television or Internet..... A Reds' game is in progress. How do you get the up to the minute game score?
In Hamilton, Ohio you could go downtown to the Daily Republican News Building (present day McDulin parking garage site) at North 3rd and Market Streets and watch the WONDER BOARD for the latest baseball scores.
The building's behind the crowd are now all demolished and the space is a part of First Financial Bank. Do you see the fans on the rooftop? How do you handle parking and crowd safety? Park your cars in rows across 3rd Street from High Street on down.
