February 2014 Pickups
Ok, so I hate to start the month of w/o a picture (I'll load it tomorrow), but killer score.
First time its happened to me, but if any one else has a great story please chime in. Ever win something, but get something thrown in you had no idea was included. So.......got a gorgeous 1920's John Heydler National League baseball (although shallacked).....but the kicker was that it didn't even list that it came with the original box. No mention of it in the description. Just spoke of the ball. (1 minor negative, the box was in 6 pieces, but I did a fairly good job of taping the inside and put it together and wallah, can't even tell it was once in pieces, original seal too....just amazing). So to my surprise, and the good lord shining on me for some unknown reason. I score a ball and perhaps a $600-700 box ta boot!!!! Last edited by Shoeless Moe; 02-02-2014 at 02:32 PM.

Did you use scotch tape to tape the box?

Johnny Vander Meer WWII Guam team baseball
I picked up this 1945 WWII Guam team signed baseball featuring ML players Johnny Vander Meer, Del Ennis and Connie Ryan.
This is a perfect companion piece to an original snapshot Of Vandy and his '45 Guam Navy teammates and crew that I was given to me as a gift by net54's Clint (KS Farmboy) a few years ago.  Many thanks to net54's Ken Sulik (EarlyWynnfan) that allowed me to go after this ball.

I never thought I'd purchase a ball but I like unique items especially if it's 19th century so picked up this neat cricket presentation ball. It's in great condition for the age and have not done enough research yet to see if I can identify "Mr. Wade" but pretty neat especially if there's a connection with Kennington Oval (part of Spalding's World Tour of 1889).

Victor Base Ball Supplies Sign
I've never seen this one before!! This Victor Base Ball Supplies Sign exhibits fantastic bright blue color! What more can you ask out of an antique baseball advertising piece other than bats, gloves, a catcher's mask and baseball? I'm assuming because it says "For Sale Here" it was originally displayed in a sporting goods store near the turn of the century. It currently measures about 10.5 inches by 13.5 inches. As you can tell the upper and right border have been cut away as this piece was unfortunately used as the backing of a picture frame!

1960's Sandy Koufax inscribed no hitter ball
I picked up this neat Sandy Koufax inscribed no hitter ball. All 4 panels have date and team for each of his 4 no hitters. It came from one of the Dodgers offices from Dodger Stadium back in the mid 60's …My good friend and member Scott G. gave me the lead on this one or I would have missed it.
