November Pickups

[Scott Garner]

Thanks Mike, Joe & Bob!

Bob. I saw the 5th night game light bulb ticket in the auction. I'm glad you won it!
I really love the look of these die cut tickets from this era.
Here's my ticket from night game #1; Vandy's famous 2nd consecutive no-hitter.

Great pin, Mike!

Ken - I had completely forgotten that Miggy played for, and won a WS with, the Marlins. Does anyone know why "Wilson" is on a SAM Bat?

Dan - love the game. How is it played?

and Scott - yet another great pickup for the #1 Vander Meer collector.

From A Wikipedia page:

Sam Bat is not owned by Wilson. It was founded by Sam Holman in 1997 and was owned independently by him until 2007 when it became owned by four individuals, none of which have any association with Wilson. The confusion probably derives from a distribution deal Sam Bat had with Wilson some time ago, in which Wilson had their logo added to the bat, although Wilson never played any part in the ownership or manufacturing of the product.

I'm not a boxing collector, but saw this and picked it up.

Scott, the WaJo game was first advertised in late 1929 and was on the market through about 1940.

Turn of the century(?) Harvard Baseball Association passes or something. Not quite sure. Thought they were neat.
