Shoeless Joe Jackson Museum


If you move it closer to the baseball stadium, they will definitely come. That was the theory behind dismantling, relocating and reconstructing Shoeless Joe Jackson's former Greenville home, which now contains a small museum next to Fluor Field. On display are records, artifacts, photographs, film and other paraphernalia associated with the star outfielder and his monumental career.
