Happy Autumn, everyone! Unless you're in the Southern Hemisphere, in which case Happy Spring!
Today I'm posting Wichita's Ackerman Park, aka various other things including "Island Park". It combines two relatively common features of 1910s-1920s ballparks: A location at/near an amusement park (like Toronto, Tucson, and LA among others), and a location taking up most of a river island (like Richmond and Harrisburg, again among others).
Ackerman Island itself (to say nothing of the ballpark) had a pretty short existence--it was a sandbar in the Arkansas river that formed in the 1870s, and was removed/joined to the river's west bank in the 1930s due to flooding concerns.
There's not a ton of info about the ballpark out there, but there are a few photos (which I've put below). One of the anecdotes that seems to be mentioned with all of the mentions of the ballpark is how in 1925 a KKK team played a Black team for charity. The KKK lost.
I've never quite been happy with the background, which was taken from one of the aerial photos, but it was fun to make a ballpark with a bit of landscape around it.
