Default FIRST APRIL PICKUP THREAD

Posted By: Keith

Sweet Display case Carlton and nice pickups guys.

Here are a few of my more recent pickups.

First is a 1929 Spalding Melon Football that is a trophy ball from a game between Haverford College and U. of Delaware. The neat part is that the ball has written on it To Coach, From Team, and the whole team signed it.



Next is a sweet Draper and Maynard Football that is a trophy ball from a game between Rome Academy and Utica Free Academy in 1929. The ball is in amazing condition.




I picked up these neat football helmet tonight at an estate auction. It is composed of leather with a harder shell top, and has a Spalding logo present (difficult to make out, but definetly Spalding) on the inside crown area. I also picked up a pair of football pants from the 1920's era.



Last, I picked up this Louisville Slugger minibat in a box lot; it is a Bob Johnson signature bat. Do these minibats have much in the way of value. Bob Johnson played for the Philadelphia Athletics in the 1930's.
