This program was special because it was commemorating the opening of the new football stadium. What was REALLY special about it though was the game was against Michigan and Red Grange scored six touchdowns that day.
I found a stack of at least 30 B33 blankets for $3 dollars a piece. Variuos colleges and universities were represented as well as various sports (including one basketball). All the blankets still had their fringes attached and had no stitch marks from being sewn into something.
As far as baseball goes, not as much luck except for this pencil box which I paid $23 dollars for.

Hey David,
Nice pencil box! Did you know Barry Halper had 3 of them in his famous '99 Sotheby's auction that sold for almost $2,000?
