AKMP Receives Phillies Memorabilia from a Dedicated Fan
November 2003
The family of the late Helen Morris Beitler have donated to AKMP her collection of Phillies memorabilia that includes programs, pennants, bats and photographs of the team and other items related to baseball. In 1994 Beitler donated over 6,000 pieces of Philadelphia ephemera to AKMP along with several examples of Philadelphia-made tools from the nationally-known collection of her husband, A.M. Beitler. Also donated was George Miller's painting of Chalkley Hall. Pictured here is a Phillies program from 1971, the inaugural season of Veteran's Stadium.
