Here is a wonderful aerial view of Comiskey Park during the 1959 World Series between the White Sox and Los Angeles Dodgers. The Dodgers would beat the Sox in six games and shortly after new owner Bill Veeck would make a few cosmetic changes to the ballpark including painting the exterior red brick facade to all white.

Take note of the people on the roof.
