Seen this?

Yup, one of my faves in my collection, Dr. Mark Cooper's personal copy. Sorry for the poor iPhone picture

Mdmtx · #3 02-23-2016, 07:35 PM

It looks awesome but has a pretty hefty price tag. Would love to have one. Maybe someday...

Major League Indoor Baseball Game. Here are some links to past auctions.

The game has been discussed a few times over the years on the memorabilia side.

It's an early board game. I found the one I posted originally on eBay. Looks very cool. Wish I had the molah to own one.

vintagesportscollector · #9 02-23-2016, 10:12 PM

I believe the game goes for about $3,000 on average.

Is this or the Mathewson Big Six game rarer. What is considered more coveted?
They are both gorgeous IMO.

Joe's estimate is roughly correct, although a largely complete example in very nice condition sold for
just under $1,000. on eBay as recently as a year and a half ago, so there are still "bargains" to be had...

Jon, it's a close call with both questions, but from the sales we've recorded over the years, we'd say
Big Six is tougher to find in decent and relatively complete condition, but Major League Indoor,
a more sturdily constructed game, has commanded slightly higher (as well as lower) prices.

The Big Six game is easier to find but SUPER tough to find in higher end condition (with side aprons intact, accessories, etc), the MLBB board game is the more coveted of the 2, IMO. The Heritage one is an anomaly because the auction listing didn't even show the lid with the Horner portraits and was a literal bargain!!

Freaking awesome display all the way around. Thanks for sharing!!

I was happy to take the chance and be the lucky recipient of that bargain!

Hey there Greg!,

Is that "Matty's Traveling Trunk" as well?
Sure looks like it...
