7/15- Today in History - Christy Mathewson Show 'em

[deadballera]

1901 Christy Mathewson becomes the first rookie in the modern era of baseball history (post 1900) to throw a no-hitter. The 20-year holds the Cardinals hitless in the Giants 5-0 victory at Robison Field in St. Louis.

Jim B: I didn't think T205s came that nice. What a beauty!
One of my faves:

Those of you who don't stray toward the Memorabilia side, you don't know what you're missing. There is a kick arse Matty thread going on right now. Check out Graig Kreindler's artwork. Awesome! Plus a great array of rarely seen goodies from Jimmy KingofClout and Steve Jacklitsch and others. Joe D.'s classic Astoria postcard is there, as well as a bunch of my favorite Mattys.

Thanks David. I love that postcard you got there.
