January Pick Ups
 
8 Attachment(s)
I couldn't resist the opportunity to have the first pick up thread of the new year:D Last year I picked up a fairly extensive collection of amateur slides of the 1971 Bucs season to include the World Series. Over the last couple of months I have been slowly picking up a number of professionally shot slides of the 1971 Series. Today I received the last of them. The first slide is actually the Bucs celebrating the 1971 Pennant after defeating the Giants in Game 4 of the NLCS. The shots of Clemente crossing the plate were taken following his Game 7 Homer in Baltimore. I think its always cool to see previously unpublished images of famous events in baseball history. For obvious reasons these make me very happy.

Absolutely gorgeous, Mike. Congrats on starting 2018 on the right foot!

Scott Garner 01-03-2018 04:31 AM

Wow, Mike- great photos for your Bucco collection!
Congrats & Happy New Year to you and everyone on net54.

pherbener 01-03-2018 04:58 AM

Great stuff there Mike! Way to start out the new year!!

Dewey2007 01-03-2018 01:11 PM

Great pics Mike. I love Al Oliver's jacket with his nickname Scoop on the back!

texmrsport 01-03-2018 01:45 PM

Awesome photos. The Sanguillen swinging photo is my favorite. I also love the "Scoops" Oliver jacket.

71buc 01-03-2018 02:46 PM

Thanks for the kind words everyone. The Scoop jacket is so 1971 Pirates. If you look closely at the first photo you can see Dock's No-No jacket in the middle of the group. These guys were such a smooth and diverse team they were the very epitome of cool for the 9 year-old version of me. They were baseball's version hip hop before there was such a thing.;)

parker1b2 01-03-2018 04:21 PM

Awesome Mike!!

YankeeFan 01-03-2018 04:29 PM

Adding my congratulations Mike. Very cool to have these unique items relating to your favorite team.

Marc (bocca001) was nice enough to give me this in a somewhat lopsided trade. The SF Giants played an annual exhibition game against the Santa Clara Broncos from 1963-1974. I am now missing only the 1963 and 1973 scorecards. Thanks, Marc!

Mike,

These are very neat slides even though we were on the losing side of the Series. I like them all, but my favorite slide is the Davey shot; very cool!

I was glad to help fill a gap in Rob's collection and happy to get this nice Giants vs. Santa Clara University baseball ticket for my modest SCU baseball display.

Also picked up this NY Giants pennant from Erik C. I figured that I could pretend that it was an SF Giants pennant given that it doesn't actually say New York on it.

Good stuff guys:)

I continue to be amazed at the stuff just sitting out there waiting to be found. I mean this piece was found a few months by a homeowner under his house:eek:

Outstanding acquisition, from a collector's standpoint and from a fan's. I especially like the slide of Clemente following through on a swing. It's not only beautiful in its own right, but it shows Stargell kneeling in the background. It reminds me of how reassuring it felt to see Clemente in the box and Stargell on deck. Congratulations!

71buc 01-06-2018 02:37 AM

Thanks Mark(s) and Michael that sign.... speechless. That is one hell of a pick up kudos to you. You must be thrilled. That's a story we need to hear. Please share the details and congratulations!

1941 Bob Feller "Clovergram" Newsletter
 
1 Attachment(s)
Neat Bob Feller item that was just too interesting and odd to pass up!

Pictured is a 1941 "Clovergram" newsletter published by Clover Farm Stores, advertising their upcoming annual convention slated for Oct 1941. Special guests included Bob Feller, who was to be interviewed by Ed Bang, presumably in front of all the attendees.

Measures about 8-1/2" x 13" and is in overall VG-EX condition.

This was part of a 50 Clovergram newsletter lot, all from 1941. If anyone is interested in the other 49 NON-Baseball newsletters, let me know!

Just picked up this mid 90s Trevor Hoffman GU bat. Not many out there. Hopefully I'll get it signed this year in Cooperstown.

Bill Rayburn 01-08-2018 05:56 PM

Great pickup Ron, good luck with the autograph.

Thank you Bill.

Paul, I am going to have to get one of those shirts for Cooperstown. Good call on the shirt!

ruth-gehrig 01-09-2018 07:08 AM

Thanks guys on the Old Gold Ruth piece. So this piece came from a guy in Portland Oregon who found it in the crawl space under his house. The piece was missing the right panel which I knew would be an easy project for Tom (Art of Restoration)

yankeesjetsfan 01-09-2018 07:29 AM

Sweet Hoffman bat!

From ebay, a spectacular 1928 Yankees-Cardinals World Series Scorecard!

Beautiful scorecard!

Old Gold is a fitting name for that Ruth ad, it's spectacular.

I've always loved those embossed postcards. The copper plate used to make the batter \ catcher one is very cool.

Just picked this up off etsy, it is a early 1950's brooklyn dodgers bum doll with the #4 on the back. I also picked up a autographed bat with Frank howard. More great things for my dodgers collection.

From The Mattingly Charities event earlier this month. Game worn June 17th and 18th, 2017, versus the Braves. Marlins lost both games.

What happened to this? I was going to look at it closer when I got home as it was a ruth item I had never seen. Is this a movie poster?

Glass Slide Projector and Slide

A little before the time of being able to throw in a DVD or stream a game live from MLB. While these glass slide projectors and slides are not all that rare, finding slides with major league baseball content is sort of tough.

It's what is known as a window card. These would be placed around town to promote either the current or upcoming offering at the local movie theater.

The most common size is 14x22 though there are less common mini window cards at 8x14 and jumbo window cards at 22x28 (same size as a half sheet). The window cards were generally on a cardboard stock and often had writing on the top, which was a blank space used by the theater to promote dates and times of the showing.

Last evening I had the chance to meet Bucky Dent at an area Banquet and had him sign some things from my collection...

A Visiting Player hand painted locker nameplate from County Stadium in Milwaukee (from his White Sox days):

The program from his infamous HR game in Boston (he suggested the inscription):

and a 1978 World Series ball:

Those are awesome pieces. Bucky has been so nice anytime I've ever met him and I remember that game as if it was yesterday.

Happy to have picked up this 1904 Boston Americans program/scorecard from the game played in Boston on July 16, 1904. Cy Young pitched for Boston and got the win. Addie Joss for Cleveland. Interesting 3rd Base/Nuf Ced McGreevey ad on the front. Has a nice Boston team composite and Carl Horner ad.

Excited to have these arrive today.

'61 season pass - only missed one game, #60. What a great summer that would have been.
