Here are my favorite pickups of 2015
Outstanding pickups, Bob! Congrats.
Here are my favorite pickups from 2015:
1) Game used ball from Nolan Ryan's 2nd career no-hitter 7/15/73 at Detroit. This was Nolan's most dominant no-hitter out of his 7. He struck out a ML record 17 Tigers and spun a performance that was so overpowering that fun-loving Norm Cash stepped to the plate in the 9th inning with a table leg to mock the game's futility for the hometown Tigers. Tigers manager Billy Martin stated that it was the most dominant pitching performance that he ever witnessed and that "Ryan had everything".
2) Circa 1983-1985 Nolan Ryan game used Houston Astros hat with tons of use
3) Circa 1931 Lefty Grove Type I photo and 1931 signed album page paired and framed. I've owned the album page for a few years and finally found it's mate on the BST. Thanks again to Perezfan Mark Steinberg for allowing me to complete this project.
4) Game used Vander Meer 1941 final out shutout trophy ball from his personal collection. All notations on the ball were made in Vandy's own hand.
5) Circa 1939 Vander Meer endorsed Goldsmith box and mitt
