History of the Bombers

The St. Louis Bombers were a professional basketball team based in St. Louis, Missouri, that played in the National Basketball Association (NBA) from 1948 to 1950. The franchise was founded by businessman and former NBA referee Harry Hannin, who purchased the rights to an expansion team for 25,000 dollars from the league's owners at its inception in 1948. The original roster included players like Bob Davies and John Logan, who became all-stars with other teams after their time with the Bombers ended prematurely due to financial issues within two years of existence.

During their brief stint as members of NBA they managed some success despite having limited resources available compared to other franchises at that time; they even made it into playoffs during 1949/50 season but lost against Minneapolis Lakers 4–2 games series which eventually became known as first ever championship title won by Lakers’ George Mikan led squad before moving onto Western Conference divisional finals where again fell short 3–2 games series against Rochester Royals; this marked end of Bomber’s story as franchise disbanded shortly afterward due lack funds needed for further operations or relocation elsewhere when attendance dropped significantly towards end season too low levels which would not sustain business model anymore making it impossible continue playing under current conditions any longer without additional investments being injected into club itself first before anything else could happen again properly later date if situation changed drastically enough benefit them once more future point down line somewhere along way afterwards perhaps someday soon thereafter maybe…

Overall experience gained while part league helped shape what today is a proud symbol of the sport locally, nationally, and worldwide. Since then, many generations have come and gone. Yet, the legacy remains the same still, just like always, and has never been forgotten no matter how many times changes around here, passing through different eras and ages over the course long history going back far beyond the beginnings of the late 1940s when everything began taking form to begin journey becoming something bigger better than anyone expected possible those days now recently celebrating 70th-anniversary milestone achieved only few can say accomplished a such feat so congratulations everyone involved helping make dream reality!
