National Photos! (and pickups)
I'm back after spending Wednesday and Thursday at the National and have quite a few photos to share.
In this post a few of my favorite pickups:
Purchased from Terry Knouse, a previously unknown issue (at least to everyone at the show), featuring six Atlanta players, many of whom also appear in the T210 set. I'm told another net54 member also bought one. The card is about the size of a cabinet card, but more square and slightly more thick than a T206.
1937 All Star pin with a great banner listing all the players on both teams.
Brass rocking chair presented to Charlie Gehringer at a Mets Old-Timers Game, has his name engraved at the top and on each tiny bat being used as spindles.
A few Colgan's for my empty tins.
Photo of Leon for your viewing pleasure.
I'll also post a couple of photos I bought from the massive Sporting News/Sport magazine collection and include a few observation in a future post.
MANY more photos are now posted at baseballbasement.com
