Is Manhattan in between the Bronx and Brooklyn?
Kind of...but no, not really. The Bronx is the only New York City borough that is attached to the mainland of New York State. Manhattan is an island that is located directly below The Bronx. The two boroughs are separated by the Harlem River, which flows from the Hudson River, down over the top of Manhattan and the bottom of The Bronx, and into the East River.
Brooklyn, along with Queens, is located across the East River from Manhattan. The East River flows from the bay known as the Long Island Sound, down the east side of Manhattan and the west side of Queens and Brooklyn, and into the Atlantic Ocean.
Queens is located on top of Brooklyn; the northern border of Brooklyn is the southern border of Queens. Queens and Brooklyn both occupy the western end of Long Island. Long Island is huge; you can't miss it on the map. It's the largest island in the continental United States. It's located just below, and directly to the east of, the bottom point of New York State.
The bottom point of New York State is where The Bronx is. So, Queens (and below it, Brooklyn) are located directly below and to the east of The Bronx. The northwest side of Queens is across the Long Island Sound from the south side of The Bronx.

An independent city until its consolidation with New York in 1898, Brooklyn is New York City's most populous borough, with 2.5 million residents,[1] and second largest in area.
If the borough were a separate city, it would be the fourth-largest city in the United States. Since 1896, Brooklyn has had the same boundaries as Kings County, which is now the most populous county in New York State, and the second most densely populated county in the United States, after New York County (Manhattan).[2][3]

What is the value of a Brooklyn Dodgers 1940 pennant?
A 1958 Los Angeles Pennant is worth about $75. - $125. in excellent to near/mint condition. Even minor flaws will bring the price down significantly. Common flaws with pennants are missing ties, pin holes, frying, creases, and "crackling" on the printing. Sometimes people will trim down a pennant to rid it of the frying or other flaws like a flat tip (point) Caused by being pinned up and ripped off. Any of these flaws will degrade the pennant significantly. Doctored pennants - A term used to describe a pennant that has been altered to cover up a flaw, is a practice that is frowned upon among the collecting community, and could sell for less than a pennant with the flaws it was meant to cover up. Vintage pennants are difficult to date to a specific season. Many pennants were for sale at the ballparks for several years in a row. Team logo's and artwork could help in dating. Often team will use the same artwork on other souvenirs like programs, and yearbooks making it possible to date to a specific year.
Most pre 1970 full sized (12" x 30") felt pennants sell for below $50.- $100. Photo pennants, and scroll or roster pennants listing team players, Championship, and World Series Pennants are more desired by collectors and will sell for more. Premium mini pennants offered by candy companies in a special offer for example could also sell for more. As with all collectibles condition is important.

How did the dodgers decide on the colors blue and white?
In the teams first years they were nicknamed the Brooklyn Bridegroms by the fans (7 of the teams players had gotten married over the offseason). The White in their uniform is called "Wedding Gown White" and the Blue is from the old wedding superstition "Something old, something new, something borrowed, and something BLUE!" So there you have it! Wedding gown white & borrowed blue. Go Dodgers!

What is the value of a 1953 Brooklyn Dodgers yearbook?
From the 56 years span between 1950-2006 there are 119 different New York Yankees yearbooks. There are 85 different just in the 27 year period from 1956-1982, and there are three or more different for virtually every year in that 27 year stretch including five different from one year. Different publication include Jay publishing Co., official Yankees first editions, 2nd editions, 3rd editions, and revised editions. A 1963 New York Yankees yearbook is worth between $60.00 - $90.00. The second, and third editions (revised printed on the cover) are worth slightly more topping out at about $105. The third edition does not indicate that it is the third edition. The way to know is by checking the roster page. Dated Sept. 3 and added names like Jake Gibbs, and Tom Metcalf. First editions in the case of yearbooks normally sell for less because they are sold throughout most of the year, and more are available. The added editions are printed at the end of the season, and are more rare. I have included a link to a New York Yankees check list, and price guide. Keep in mind that condition is everything in putting a value on an item. With publications minor flaws could degrade the value a lot.
