This site, THE NEW YORK GIANTS PRESERVATION SOCIETY, is a new on-line venture, one in which “the history of the New York Baseball Giants is remembered, treasured, and preserved.”

Our goal is to make this a place where followers of the past can congregate with others who have similar yearnings to remember a a time in their life that was removed when the Giants moved to San Francisco for the start of the 1958 MLB season. We want to keep the flame burning so to speak. We hope all followers of the Giants (both NY and SF) find this a site that they will frequent often as we try our best to provide you with as up to date information on the NY Baseball Giants as possible.

We will be continually trying to add new things to make this your home for anything having to do with the NY Baseball Giants. “We’re calling all fans, all you Giants ballfans”!!
