Ok, I'll play
Here are few that I picked up at this year's National.
1. 1938 Bob Feller playing marbles with the marble champ from Akron. 2. Louis Van Oeyen photo of Logan Drake. Notice the black arm band in memory of Ray Chapman. 3. 1935 All-Star Game held in Cleveland. Joe Vosmik fell runnng to 3rd on a hit by Gehringer. Pepper Matrin was covering 3rd base. Hope you enjoy them Jantz Last edited by Jantz; 01-16-2010 at 11:58 AM.

Last I checked, Cincy was on the north side of the Ohio River... so I guess Reds stuff will also qualify for this thread. Below is a Turnstyle from Crosley Field, an early Redland Field Mirror (Crosley Field's original name), and a few more Reds' knick-knacks.
Better things to follow, once I have some time to dig out.... Last edited by perezfan; 09-09-2009 at 05:05 PM.

Indians Stuff
Jimmy... those are two pristine autos from mega Hall-of-famers... awesome!
Below is a rare unaltered 1970 Indians Home Jersey that was worn by Ted Uhlaender. This is a single-year style with the nifty 3-D Font. IMO they shouldn't have abandoned this style so quickly, as it's beautiful in person. Big Chief Eerie Doll... tough to find w/original box! Nowadays, they might face legal battles for this kind of merchandising... Last edited by perezfan; 09-19-2009 at 02:13 AM.

Reds stuff...
Tony Perez' Game-used Helmet from 1975. The Letter from Cincinnati Reds says that it's one of two he used that year, so it probably saw action in the World Series, with a 50-50 chance he was wearing it when he clobbered Bill Lee's Eephus pitch high over the Green Monster. One of my faves...
Also a nifty Redlegs game-used Jacket from the mid '50s...

Just uncovered these photos of Crosley Field, which my Dad took in 1969. A magical little Ballpark as I remember it at age 9. With the gigantic left field scoreboard and the incline terrace in the outfield (in place of a warning track) it had some really unique features. You can also see the press box, which sat high above the top deck!
These images brought back lots of memories. I traced one game to July 15, 1969, based on the scoreboard info (0-4 in the first inning, and Britton vs. Clay Carroll) I forgot Carroll was a starting pitcher back then (he later became a premier reliever in the 1970s Big Red Machine days). There was apparently a second game against the Braves, as Johnny Bench is seen batting. Bench was hurt for the July 17 game, and was not playing (Pat Corrales played in his place, as evidenced on the scoreboard...) Just wanted to share, as it was a real "score" to find these ektachrome slides after 40 years in storage!

BEAUTIFUL PHOTOS! Love it when we see angles like this! Thanks for sharing them!
Here's a huge Burger Beer store display featuring Crosley Field in glorious color as well! (measures 38" x 28") I don't know when the color of the grandstand was changed so I can't give a date to this.

1875 Base Ball Program...Cleveland OH
Here is a program from a day of outdoor sports that took place in 1875 on Euclid Ave. in Cleveland Ohio. My image cuts off cuz I wanted to feature the great graphics, but just below the city and state are indicated as Cleveland Ohio....wonder if Brooks School or Euclid Ave. is still there?

I believe that the Reds and Tigers were the only teams to put out these Silk Banners for their championship teams (someone please correct me if that's wrong).
They are scarce, and a bidding war ensues each time one comes to auction. A 1940 Reds one (with major condition issues) recently hit ebay. Just too tattered for my liking, but I do have these three toughies. The 1961 Reds/Yankees Banner always commands a premium, as it is coveted by Yankee fans as well...

Couldn't let this thread go by without posting this one...
1919 Reds Pennant from the year they "defeated" the Black Sox in the infamous 1919 World Series. A rare and historically significant pennant. Also a late 1930s pennant with an incredibly detailed depiction of Crosley Field...

Great stuff Mark. Those silk banners must be extremely scarce as I dont think I have seen any of the three you posted. I've seen the Tigers version several times but no Reds.
Here's a piece to go along with the 1919 Reds pennant you posted. Hopefully I will get around to getting it framed soon.

Shortly after moving to Ohio, a newspaper classified ad led me to an old bar in a small town north of Columbus. The walls were covered with original baseball photos and panoramas but years of exposure had damaged most beyond repair. Alas, I sold this 1919 Reds panorama within minutes of opening my table at the Atlanta National in 1992.

Thanks Jimmy and Brock... This "Ohio Baseball" thread still hasn't received it's proper dues (I had to go all the way to page 4 just to revive it!) So I'll scrounge up more stuff hopefully before too long...
Brock - that piece is amazing, and is begging to be framed. So many options on that one... please be sure to "show and tell", after you've had a chance to frame it.

I previously posted these usher badges in the pickups thread, but after receiving them in the mail last week decided to pop them in here, too, because they're much nicer in hand than what I expected. Pretty heavy and high quality, and bigger than I imagined (although the dimensions were clearly stated in the auction catalog -- am I the only one that happens to?).
The fact the one clearly is League Park is exciting for me, because other than a folding chair and brick, I don't have any items from the actual ballpark. My guess is the other two are from League Park, too, but obviously because of the lettering that's just an educated guess.

Do you Ohio Fans know what Ken Keltner was best known for in the baseball world?

Those are sandals, not flip-flops. Don't you know anything? D., Keltner often is cited for ending Joe D's 56 game hitting streak, with a couple of nice fielding plays.

Jim V B I was going for the Joe D. 56 game streak but I said Ohio Fan. Is Ohio part of Texas?

We lived just outside of Columbus from 1995 to 2005. So I have Ohio "connections". If I have to be a "fan" of the Indians or the Reds, I'm out. Not big on most Ohio teams.

I live in southern Michigan and worked in Ohio at two different places. Was just having a little fun. All of the Big Ten needs to recruit speed so we can get some respect in the polls. Was stationed at Ft. Bliss in the service also. D.

Ohio State and Nebraska have played twice in football:
1955: OSU 28, Nebraska 20 1956: OSU 34, Nebraska 7 I'm proud to say I did not know this but had to look it up in our database. Ohio State football fans might find it interesting: http://www.buckeyextra.com/live/cont...SUresults.html

Reference sites seems to disagree. http://collegefootball.about.com/gi/...rehouse.com%2F Buckeyes 2-0 against Nebraska! (Ohio State may finish this year at 7-5. Perhaps they'll meet Nebraska in the Liberty Bowl or the Weed-eater Bowl.)

Vernon...
Thanks Rob,
For years I didn't know much about these. I did know they had to have been issued for a short time in 1949 because of the others that I have, two of the players overlapped on their respective teams for only about six weeks that summer. Dr. M's guide shows a few that he correctly dates 1949 as well. I've got a handful of Cubs, White Sox and this one Indian. I've also seen a Yankee although it's been a long time. -a
