Birmingham Black Barons records

The collection consists primarily of a manuscript cash book containing the Birmingham club's accounts with each of its players for the 1926, 1927, 1928, 1929, and 1930 seasons. A few non-player accounts are also present. In addition to this book, the collection includes a few team-related letters, receipts, and other records, originally enclosed in the book and now removed to folders.
