For my women in baseball collection.
Usually I stay with pro/semi pro type of teams and players, but this one is just...I mean....I am equal parts intrigued and horrified as to just WTF is up with this image. Tom C |

These are a first for me. I never thought I would see a confirmed tintype of an Olympian until I got these two in a lot of items. I have gotten a good group of items in several purchases related to this athlete. A real estate investor purchased his son's home which probably passed in the family. Isidore "Jack" Niflot won a gold medal in wrestling at the 1904 Olympics in St. Louis. He also competed in the 1906 Intercalated Games in Athens which the IOC refuses to recognize as Olympic Games. He was an AAU champ and later turned pro. He was a long time wrestling referee and coached at City Athletic Club in New York City, Columbia and Penn. In these two he is standing in one and seated in the middle in the other. The word on the jerseys is Balmers. I do not know what that is.

Picked up this nice JF Hillerich and Son bat. On the handle you can see notches for grip.

Picked up this large 1907 UVM vs. Holy Cross game scorecard with three players listed that had distinguished Major League careers:
Jack Barry of Holy Cross (Philadelphia Athletics, Boston Red Sox), Ray Collins of UVM (Red Sox), and Larry Gardner of UVM (Red Sox). Barry was part of the Athletic's "$100,000 Infield", and Gardner and Collins featured prominently on Champion Red Sox Teams. In 1915 Barry, Collins and Gardner played together on the same Red Sox team (with a young Babe Ruth), winning the World Series.

From the BST on net54, just picked up this original 1916 photo of Brooklyn Robins no-hit pitcher Rube Marquard.

Nice pickup. And that is quite the window pane uniform that team wore. Photos from that era are so cool.
