Ripkin's cleaned-up rookie card costs $10, and his "obscene" one costs $.10, it's sort of refreshing. I didn't bid on "Joe D's etc" but I sure ran out and bought B. Ripkin's "FF" rookie.<BR><BR>I have Radbourne's "middle finger extended" Old Judge, but the cabinet--don't have it-- is much better. You can hardly see his fingers in the small one. <img src="/images/sad.gif" height=14 width=14> <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><BR><BR>

Posted By: <b>Scott</b><p>I think leon would have some pretty "stiff" competition from the Williams family for the rights to the "used" variation... they would likely want to put that in the cryonics lab along side Teddy Ballgames suspended head. <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>

Posted By: <b>Scott</b><p>Sorry about posting it so large... I magnified the scan 2x to get a good view of "the bird" and must have posted my magnified version and not the original you sent me.<BR><BR>If nobody else has posted it, I'll update the link to put your original image out there...<BR><BR>Sorry about that!

Posted By: <b>Julie</b><p>Seller said he thought the condom pack was from the late '40-early '50s (though he couldn't be sure, since rhey weren't dated), so I won that pack of condoms with the long, lean drawing of T. Ballgame on the front for $104.50!<BR>First condoms I ever owned...

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>I'm not quite sure how to feel about being a little bit responsible for Julie owning her fist pack of condoms <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14> ....seems our little chat board has taken a strange, strange turn......(insert little mystery sound)

Posted By: <b>Julie</b><p>as long as nobody tries to use the condoms--rubber goods from the late '40s-early '50s would be a little--passe. I mean, the gasket on my fridge is already wearing out, and it's only 5 years old...
