Accessing the Playing Boards
-
I was an APBA Baseball fanatic back in the early 60s when I was in high school. I think I played my last game in 1964. Now retired, I’ve recently discovered APBA GO and am enjoying playing again. But I don’t have any of the tangible stuff from my youth, no dice and dice rollers, no cards in packs and no base situation boards.
Is there a website where I can access the playing situation boards and even print them out? Or at least be able to read them on the screen?
Also, I understand that the boards have evolved over the decades and so there would be different versions. I’d like to see what has happened since my vintage boards of 60 years ago.

@tomfortas-0 Hi!
I’m not sure what’s available for C&D game, but if what you’re looking for exists it would be available at https://apba.stores.yahoo.net/apbabaseball.html
Thanks,

Thanks for your reply. Well, that’s one way I could get the boards and I may just do that and order the new game. But what I am looking for is a website with scans or screenshots of the playing boards so I could consult them online as I play online.Now I did find Frank Welsh’s great article about the history of the boards and their revisions, but I wish he had provided scans of each board that he investigated. Maybe I could contact him and ask if he would upload the copies of the boards that he used for his research. (I see that his last update was in 2011)
