Photo of the Week: Remembering Wyoming’s Field of Dreams

This photo is from the Grand Rapids Public Museum’s collections. It is part of a set of photos featuring American Seating Company stadium chairs installed in 1937. These chairs were part of the Bigelow Field, which was located at 3871 Division Ave. South, then Wyoming Township. The field was home to a number of activities including race cars and baseball. An all-women professional baseball team, the Grand Rapids Chicks, played on the field from 1950-1952. The stadium burned down in 1952.
