About book
Part of living in a city is the shared experience of cheering on local sports teams — the memorabilia from games, events, and clubs act as a portal to those long-forgotten moments. Spacing publisher Matthew Blackett and City of Toronto chief curator emeritus Wayne Reeves combed through the City’s collection of over 150,000 artifacts to find items that inspired writers to share stories of the city’s athletic history. From the guns used in shooting competitions at Fort York to Ned Halan’s rowing oar to a ticket from the first Blue Jays game at the SkyDome, Souvenirs of Toronto Sports beautifully showcases over 200 years of local sporting history.learn more and buy book
