Danny Schrader researches former New Mexico sports teams, such as the Albuquerque Six Guns, a professional hockey team that played one season in the ’70s. He is also a supporter of the Animal Humane Association. I learned of his website and operation in Sunday’s Albuquerque Journal Careers section.
He researches team histories and produces logo T-shirts for such old teams as:
- Madrid Miners – AA Minor League: 1020s, ’30s and 40’s
- Artesia Drillers – Longhorn League: 1951-1953
- Carlsbad Potashers – Longhorn League, Southwestern League and Sophomore League: 1953-1956
- New Mexico Storm – American Indoor Soccer League: 2004-2005
Regrettably, the only two sports teams I mentioned in the Albuquerque Timeline are Albuquerque’s first pro baseball team ‘The Albuquerque Dons’ in 1932, and the 1984 El Dorado High School Girls Basketball team that won 74 consecutive victories – the longest winning streak in the nation. It’s neat to learn that Danny is filling the blanks.
I think you will enjoy visiting Danny’s website at www.pdvintage.com and taking a look at his great logo T-shirts. Myself, I’m looking forward to seeing what other fascinating and interesting former New Mexico sports teams he finds.
