Many articles and photos about the development and history of Crosley. 



Ballparks, Arenas and Stadiums  by Bob Busser

One of the most thorough sites on the internet for pictures of old ballparks, Bob Busser has been travelling across the country to sports venues since the 1970's, he has posted many of his own photos of ballparks and stadiums, and found many others from the internet for virtually every sports palace in America.   For each park he also creates a full-size slide show set to music.  While he was too young to have visited the original Crosley Field,  he collected some of the best photos of Crosley to use in his slideshow.  Also, he has visited the site of the recreated field, and those photos are included in his presentation.

Work of Nelson Ronsheim, Cincinnati photographer
Nelson Ronsheim was a Cincinnati studio artist and photographer who captured the dynamic growth and changes in Cincinnati's urban landscape from 1923 until his death in 1981.  His grandson, Michael G Smith, has posted some of his works on Flickr, and also continued his grandfather's work by returning to some of these sites in recent years to document the ongoing changes to Cincinnati's neighborhoods.
