I hate getting underwear for Christmas.

I was actually pretty happy with it . Had one of these about 15 years ago with underwear in it and sold at the National .

Who was the poor sap that got your underwear? Did he pay a premium??

Edit: For real though, awesome graphics on the box!

Great find, Kenny! You've reminded me of one of my favorite hobby memories of my dad ~ I purchased a full box of these at an antique shop back in the 1980s. I called my dad and said "Hey, I just found a full box of Babe Ruth underwear!"

Ever the skeptic, he replied "How do you know they were his?"

I told him they smelled like hot dogs, and we both had a great laugh about it for years.

This c1890 Mettlach bicycle stein was a nice p/u...just came today off eBay...in my subjective opinion I think it's one of the top thee bicycle steins...I've done features on the other two, see links below...I'll disclose the three sided shot below is a different example than mine that I put together during the week prior to to get a good look at it...It's identical to mine except for the metal thumb lever is different...I prefer racing scenes but the art quality is there...I have other sports porcelain but I think this is the first traditional German beer stein I've ever owned.
