Museum Exhibit Case
Madison, Wisconsin. Objects on display at the Wisconsin Historical Museum in 2003 told the story of the Milwaukee Braves in Wisconsin.
This online exhibit was developed as a companion to an exhibit case displayed at the Wisconsin Historical Museum in 2003, in honor of the 50th anniversary of the Milwaukee Braves' founding.

In 2007 the museum mounted a larger exhibit, “World Series Wisconsin,” to mark the semi-centennial of the Braves’ World Series victory and the 25th anniversary of the Milwaukee Brewers’ World Series appearance. The Wisconsin Historical Society acquired more Braves artifacts for that exhibit, including:
A bat issued to Red Schoendienst (1957 World Series)
A jersey worn by Joe Adcock (1957)
A World Series welcome sign (1957)
