Items in this collection were compiled by the Atlantic City Free Public Library from various sources. The collection contains images, news clippings, pamphlets, programs and other information, primarily about the baseball player John Henry "Pop" Lloyd, who played for the Negro League team Bacharach Giants and later coached for the semi-professional team Johnson Stars (later the Farley All Stars). A local baseball stadium was named in his honor in 1949. Many of the materials in the collection were created by the Committee to Restore Pop Lloyd Stadium in the early 1990s as they sought to publicize the history of Negro League baseball in Atlantic City in order to raise awareness and money to renovate the stadium.
