Found this Item below,on October 4th 2011 - History on the Item is as followed.
Baltimor Sun's -How did this baseball team get its name? --- Ever wonder how the Baltimore Orioles got their name?
After the bird, yes. But that is only a small part of the saga. A clue to the origins of the team's name can be found at the Enoch Pratt Free Library's Central Branch. A small brightly lithographed rectangle of thin cardboard was tucked into a recent show of the treasures and oddities this venerable institution houses. The pasteboard piece was about the size of a baseball card.
So, on Sept. 12, 13 and 14, 1882, the second Oriole Festival was held. Sept. 12, the day on which Baltimore normally celebrated its defense of the city against the British in the War of 1812, was declared Military Day. Visiting firemen, the salvage corps and the Maryland National Guard marched in their finest uniforms from Broadway to Druid Hill Park.
So now you have the story on the Item below, This Is a ( RARE ITEM )
