Artwork accurately depicts great ballparks of Boston's past:
The Grand Pavilion version of South End Grounds is shown. Its Victorian splendor lasted only 6 years before being destroyed by fire to be replaced by a much simpler single grandstand scheme.
Huntington Avenue Grounds (the former home of the Boston Red Stockings) is displayed hosting the first World's Series game in 1903.
Braves Field (home of the Boston Braves) and Fenway Park round out the lot. Fenway is pictured as it was originally built, with the 6 to 10 foot (no one knows for sure how high) incline known as Duffy's Cliff leading up to the pre Green Monster wall. Fenway Park and Wrigley Field are the lone hold outs in the age of revenue generating "retro" parks. Fenway has probably changed the most of the two. This is its original incarnation.
