If ever a team lived up to its nickname, it was the Hollywood Stars, of the Pacific Coast League. In 1938, the San Francisco Missions moved to Los Angeles and became the second version of the Hollywood Stars. An earlier Hollywood Stars team existed from 1926-35. Offered is a game worn late 1950s Hollywood Stars jersey. In '39, one of the team's owners, Robert H. Cobb, owner of the famous Brown Derby restaurant, decided to spark interest in the team by involving real Hollywood stars as part owners in the team. Some of the many Hollywood stars or celebrities who owned a small interest in the team: Gary Cooper, William Powell, Barbara Stanwyck, Robert Taylor, George Burns & Gracie Allen, Gene Autry, Cecil B. DeMille, and Bing Crosby. During the 1940s through the early 1950s, the Stars had Major League affiliations with the New York Giants, Pittsburgh Pirates, Chicago White Sox, and Brooklyn Dodgers.
