Keeping in mind "It ain't Over til it's Over", 2014 still has a couple weeks left. But here are my "Top 5" to date (subject to change )

1. Muller Baseball Clock
2. Early Teens NY Giants Oversized Champions Pennant (thank iPhone for inverted image)
3. Red Schoendienst 1957 Milwaukee Braves Jacket
4. Willie Mays Chesterfield Easel-back Ad Sign
5. Pristine 1910 Baseball Trophy with engraved Batter
I just checked....44% of the adult population smoked in the 1950s. I'm not aware that Willie did. Does anyone know? At least Willie's testimony was "These Chesterfields are great." Some of the earlier ads claimed cigarettes were actually GOOD for you!
