October Pickups

[71buc]

I added a pin and these five color slides to my 1971 Pirate collection. The quality is low as I scanned the slides rather than generating prints. The Clemente was shot during Game 2 of the 71 World Series in Baltimore. The Murtaugh image was used for the cover of The Sporting News and was shot by Emmons. Fellow member Joe (icollectDCsports) directed me to the pin. Thanks Joe! Based on the colors and the sellers San Francisco location I believe it is attributable to the 1971 NLCS.

So glad you won the pin, Mike! When I saw it, I immediately figured it to be from the '71 NLCS and thought of your collection.

Not in the same league as the great items you guys always post, but I picked up this cigarette case from Joe DiMaggio's Grotto from Andy Sandler's last auction. Neat little item, though not de facto baseball, other than it was Joe's place.

I am curious as to their size. Most of these I have seen are small around 5x7 at most. These smaller size photos were produced from the late 30s into the 40s and were sold by mail order. Most are unquestionably made from the original negative, but I have never seen one that could definitely be labeled to an exact time frame. I have also never seen any labeled as type 1. All the large size versions of these photos I have seen were modern reprints.

Thanks Mike! Mark they're 4 x 5 1/8 inches, and they look like they're from the original negatives. I know I've seen a couple of the images before. Especially the one fielding Gehrig.

That sounds about what I am familiar with. I am not sure who sold them, but it might have been the Yankees themselves. I have a couple myself. They came slabbed by Beckett as type 2s, but look no different than any of the other I have seen.
