List of New York Lincoln Giants seasons

This list of New York Lincoln Giants seasons compiles games played by the New York Lincoln Giants. For seasons when the Lincoln Giants were league members or an associate team, only games that counted in official league standings are included. Seasons whenthey had no league membership and played an independent/barnstorming schedule include games against primarily major-league-caliber teams.

Contemporary coverage of games and standings was spotty and inconsistent. Ongoing research continuously discovers unreported or misreported games, while some games are probably lost forever. Therefore, Negro league seasonal finishes will likely remain incomplete and subjective.
