Salem Fairies - Massachusetts - Vintage Defunct Baseball Teams - Women's T-Shirt Size:2XL " topped with two orangeSalem's Fairies took the field in 1887 as part of the New England League, representing a Massachusetts city already steeped in centuries of history.

Teams like the Fairies gave Salem something beyond its colonial past to rally around, even if only for a brief season. Part of our Defunct Baseball collection, inspired by the vintage Minor League teams of yesteryear.
