Almanac



The Sporting News Archives was established in 1986 as a part of The Sporting News Publishing Company. Its primary purpose is to support the staff of the company by providing accurate reference information in a timely manner and by collecting and maintaining materials relevant to the production of our weekly magazine and our other products. In addition, the archives staff provides reference services to the public, who may contact us by letter, phone or fax. In 1996, The Sporting News Publishing Company moved into a new building which includes an environmentally-controlled 1,500 square foot facility for the archives.

There are several distinct collections in the archives dating from before the turn of the century to the present day including:

  • A photo collection of over 600,000 prints
  • A 6,000-volume sports literature collection
  • Team media guides from the four major team sports
  • A newspaper and magazine microfilm collection
  • Clipping files on individuals and subjects
  • Publications from The Sporting News
  • Selected sports and general periodicals
