Fenway Park souvenir trophy circa. 1950's
 

1949 season pass that belonged to John Dooley, founding member of the Royal Rooters and the man who put the Red Sox on Huntington Ave. He attended every Boston home opener from 1894 until his death in 1970. I'm happy just to get tickets.

What a great piece William!

Here are a couple of pretty cool BoSox Pennants....

The first features their nifty "Batting Sock" Mascot from the '50s... this little guy appeared on cards and programs quite a bit, but is surprisingly tough to find on vintage pennants.

Second is an oversized Red Sox Pennant from the early teens - a true work of art...

Jack McCallister managed the 1927 Cleveland Indians and was a scout for the Red Sox in the early 1930s.

a few
 

I have quite a few but here are some.....This is 1 of 2 Ferguson Bakery D381 with Coupon cards I have ever seen....and the only Red Sox team card with this "Taver" back that I have ever seen......

This is not my picture. Found it on the Web. It's a Library of Congress photo, I believe. Thought it would be apropos for this thread. Shown are: Cy Young, Jake Stahl, Bill Carrigan and one Mr. Michael T. McGreevey at Red Sox spring training in 1912.

Crisp shot. From the looks of things.,The boys really needed the change to Sarasota. Brrrr

Hot Springs is supposed to be very nice, Steve.

Rawn

Great bathhouses, pretty town and very warm people. But it does have a change of seasons and gets snow, which means cccold to this wimp. Heck, even Jacksonville, Fla hits 32* and snows albeit rarely.
Tough for a hardcore Mainer to understand my whining though ;)

Glad your back posting.

It's 106 today and I'll take 32 over this anytime my friend.

Here's a couple things that I haven't shared since the old board.

I never get tired of seeing it. Hope to have it with the other's on the wall someday.

In lieu of today's recent report in the New York Times, here is a pre-2003 shot of David Ortiz. Quite frankly, I'm disgusted. :mad:

Sent by Bill to his brother-in-law. Damn stamp collectors.

Just sold it, I will mis it....

Sans postage and corner. It's still one of the prettiest bosox things here rawn.

Rawn,

Nice postcard.

Here is a photo I have that was supposed to be owned by Harry Hooper

Gansett, that is stunning!

1912
 

Loved the 1912 photo the last time I saw it, Greg. It just keeps looking better. I think the angle is a bit different than the PC.

Rawn

Rawn,

I've seen a few slightly different views of this photo. You really have to do a double take to notice the differences.

Best,
Greg

We just picked this up and I wanted to add it to this awesome thread.

http://www.rrauction.com/RedSoxImmortals.jpg

Here's one to revive this thread too. The same caveat applies: I'm a HORRIBLE photographer, and my basement studio doesn't lend itself nicely to shooting. With that in mind, please understand that it's not a good representation of the painting. Once I get it photographed, I'll post the professionally-done photo.

Another Conlon shot. Those of you who were at the National may have seen me working on it, and perhaps even threw a tomato or two. It's finally done, and after a varnish is being shipped out to its owner.

Oh, and for those of you who are curious, in the late 30s and early 40s, the Yankees would cover the tops of their home and away dugouts with a huge red tarp during special events. In this case, it's Opening Day at the Stadium in 1939, and with the Sox in town, this young man is about to start a brilliant career.

http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b1...ndler/Ted2.jpg

That red background is a direct result of the dozen tomatoes I hurled at the artist, but missed. He's a slippery little guy, but he sure can paint!

Some of a group of deckle edged fan snapshots featuring the Splinter -Sox vs Indians. I believe 1947, the first year of the lights. Also, the year the first Hancock Tower was built (missing, off right field) and a very prominent structure in the early Beantown skyline. I don't have these in hand yet and can't date with certainty and any related comments are appreciated.

Steve, my only related comment is "Friggin' Awesome!!"

I don't have any Red Sox memorabilia.

But this link belongs in this thread.

One of the coolest and most enjoyable photo collections I have ever seen -
I am grateful that the time was taken to put this together.....

Very funny, Joe. The link is for a North Korean gay dating service. Sheesh!
All kidding aside, everyone stop what you are doing and check out Joe's link. There is a fantastic bunch of deadball era BoSox pictures, most of which I've never seen before. Be prepared to spend some time. Thx for the link, Joe D.

Appreciate the 'Nuf ced link Joe.

The Boston Pub. Library site was being retooled for a many, many months -
it was a brutal wait... Ive pilfered many images from this site over the years.

Steve F: Very nice pics of Fenway. And Ditto to Joe for the link on "nuf ced. I spent a good 1/2 hour grazing!

Hey all, here's the professionally photographed portrait of Ted...and still, the reproduction leaves a little to be desired. Argh.

Anyways, hope y'all like it!

Wow, Jimmy, that ring is a beauty. Ive heard that often the little wire piece is broken, due to being fragile. Continued great stuff on this thread.

I've always loved the 1939 Baseball Magazine cover featuring Ted's swing. The 1946 Liberty Magazine isn't as familiar.

Jboosted92: Very nice display. I am guessing that is a nice framed photo of Ted right above the display. And David, thanks for the best laugh I had all weekend :)!
