I'm a middle school teacher who is in search of radio broadcasts of 1930's Yankee games (the earlier in the 30's the better) in MP3 format.

We are studying the Depression in a two week cross-curriculuar unit and would love to have some baseball broadcast games for entertainment.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I imagine the need is now past but just FYI, as far as I know there were no Yankee broadcasts on radio until around 1940-41 or maybe later. I read that the then-three N.Y. teams would not allow their games on radio. I think the owner of the Dodgers broke the ice by hiring Red Barber. Further input, anyone?
