* Dodgy photos at LA library

July 19, 2008

The Los Angeles Central Library is hosting “Play Ball! Images of Dodger Blue, 1958-1988,” a photographic exhibition, through November 9.

The curator for the exhibit is David Davis, a contributing writer to Los Angeles Magazine and The Times’ Book Review.

“Since 1958, the Dodgers have been a vital, integral part of the social fabric of Los Angeles,” Davis said. He added that the exhibit is a historical snapshot of the team’s first 30 years in L.A., images of Walter O’Malley’s move from Brooklyn, World Series wins at the Coliseum and Dodger Stadium, the presence of such players and managers as Sandy Koufax, Don Drysdale, Walter Alston, Tom Lasorda, Pee Wee Reese, Roy Campanella, Steve Garvey and Fernando Valenzuela, and broadcaster Vin Scully.

The exhibit is free and open to the public during library hours. Unfortunately, the article in the Los Angeles Times did not list any contact information.
