Description
This nostalgic watercolor captures the iconic Buckhorn Baths Motel—birthplace of Arizona’s spring training tradition. In 1947, Ted Sliger welcomed the World Champion New York Giants to his mineral-rich oasis, outfitting locker rooms and hosting legends like Ty Cobb and Willie Mays. For 25 years, the Buckhorn was their springtime home, sparking the formation of the Cactus League. Today, over half of MLB teams train in Arizona—but it all started here.
