That's really cool. Thanks for posting it.
It was funny to see all of those people in New York "watching" the game on a mechanical score board because there was no television or radio broadcast.

It was interesting to how much smoke was wafting up in that first scene of the crowd. Looked kind of like a Dead concert. And in Cincinatti, there were no dugouts, just a bench with fans standing behind them breathing down their necks.

IIRC, the BBC just put all the Pathe newsreel footage online for free. Like 80,000 newsreels, many of which probably haven't been seen by the general public in decades. Probably lots more stuff to be unearthed.
