December pickups
A few sweet finds to kick off December (technically some in late November):
1) Type I Johnny Vander Meer unique candid dugout shot from June, 1938.
This was at the Polo Grounds in NY. Check out the vintage water cooler! Thanks to net54's Chris Gamble for selling this to me!
2) Type I 11" x 12" photo of Randy Johnson's no-hitter celebration on June 2, 1990 at Seattle. RJ has always been a personal favorite of mine and this is a terrific image of the very 1st no-hitter ever in the Seattle Mariners organization.
3) Paul Derringer's personal copy of a George Brace postcard of Vander Meer, Babe Ruth and Derringer talking in the dugout prior to Vandy's 2nd consecutive no-hitter on 6/15/38 at Ebbets Field. From the Paul Derringer estate
