Hi Mike, thanks for the info on that now-ancient auction of National Pastime. It's weird that we (at that time obsessively tracking eBay auctions of
tabletop baseball) and the entire membership of our games forum completely missed that one, since the eBay auction in May of that same year for
a complete example of National Pastime in outstanding condition was the subject of much discussion in our forum. Do you recall the final price
on the example on which you bid and Mark won?

Crap, forgot one...

1991-92 Barry Larkin game used bat

Butch I went to my files and found the pages I copies for the National Pastime auction that both went off in May 13,2003.

The game was listed by scatmansworld showing a Seattle-Tacoma location.

My final bid was $507.77 and it was won with a $517.77 winning bid.

There was also a copy of the game in what would appear to be wonderful condition that went off January 8, 2003 by heartofohioauctions. I did copy all the game part photos from eBay but did not copy a final bid page.

If others have appeared on eBay I have just missed them. I usually search APBA but no other games.

Got these two items today. The last Nebraska Indians card that I need (of the ones I know exist), The Sam Miley card is 4.25" x 5" and before today I did not know it existed...a customer of mine walked into my store today with these and sold them to me.

I love that Sam Miley Night card Dan -- very cool to make a new discovery like that!

Ca. 1916 Red Sox Pennant
 

Picked this up today 😄 always wanted a Ruth-era pennant.

I don't post much on this forum because I usually don't find much in the way of memorabilia, but I did happen across this glove today at a local flea market.

Mike, thanks again for the additional details on the National Pastime auctions.
PM sent.

Picked this up a few days ago. Most likely it is a 1918 piece since that is the year Chase and Archer were on the Reds together and the company is from Cincy as well:

Vandy pickups
 

Here are two original Johnny Vander Meer photos that I just picked up related to the game played on June 19, 1938 At Boston.

The significance of this game is that it immediately followed Vandy's record setting back-to-back no-hitters. The cool panoramic shot is from the 9th inning. In the 4th inning, light-hitting Debs Garms lined a single to end Vander Meer's consecutive no-hit innings streak at 21 2/3 innings. Vander Meer and the Reds did go on to win this game 14-1, with Vandy allowing only 4 hits.

Recently I also found an interesting streetcar pass to Vander Meer's 1st career save on Sept. 29, 1940. The pass exhibits neat graphics and color, which I found unusual for the 1940's, FWIW.

Scott,

I've never seen an original of the panoramic shot - congrats on landing one!!! Your Vandy collection continues to rule the roost.

Graig

Thanks Graig!

Picked up another scorebook, this one having games from 1884 - 1886. Several of the big names of the day: Anson, Kelly, Sunday, Clarkson, Radbourn, Hanlon, Brouthers.

Randomness
 

No idea what posessed me but grabbed the following:

2013 Game Used Spring Training Cap (Dan Johnson)

20?? Game Used Alternate Cap (Eric Hinske)
http://www.collectorfocus.com/images...-braves-hinske

Just have to figure a nice way to display these...

C ' mon Matt - use your head! :p

Hi-
I picked up all of the items posted below at the Wilmington MA show a few weekends ago. The Dewitt's guide is rough, but the price was right at 50.00 for something so historic.
The check is cool, as the person who signed it was one of the players referenced in the Mills commission report as playing in the "first" game in 1839 at Phinney's farm. This check is signed by Elihu Phinney, the son of the farm's owner at the time.
The stereo view is labeled residence George S Mitchell Magnolia Mass. On the back is the name Chelsea Wattago? as well as the year 1879.
Magnolia is part of Gloucester on the north shore of the state. There appears to be three people holding bats (they are also wearing uniforms but I cannot tell much about them).
I also got a cool scored program from an 1889 game between Lowell and New Haven (Atlantic Association). It was a good show for nicely priced, oddball 19th century items in my opinion!

Great stuff Alan!

clarkson cigar box
 

http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item...d=321259911475
Picked this up today. I would say very scarce. Cant seem to locate another. I collect baseball cigar boxes and I'm thrilled with this one.it appears clarkson ran his own cigar shop at the turn of the century in michigan.

That box is AWESOME Kevin. Congrats:)

Thx scott. Dont think another exists.

More randomness...
 

I really need to get back to picking up some vintage cards...autographs...something...though I really like David Phelps and expect big things from him this season...

...and the jacket fits me great which will help when my wife kicks me to the curb...at least I'll be warm!

Just got these two items so I can mat them together. Who can forget the great Jose Canseco mis-playing a fly ball into a homerun off his head? I found a full unused ticket from the game and then found this great signed photo of the event. I have searched for the ticket for a while now so I was excited to find one.

Great Nebraska pick ups Dan!

DOH!! :)
Great pickup, Randall!

Bob Feller Popsicle promotional mechanical pencil
 

I just picked this neat Bob Feller Popsicle promotional pencil from Louis a net54 board member. Many thanks to Louis for allowing me to add this to my collection.

Happy Birthday, Lou!

Nice! I have a ticket from the game he pitched in Boston when he injured himself for the season. Fun-loving guy, or idiot?

Picked this up last week on eBay...art work is silver inaly on glass...Maker not given but I speculate may be by WMF from Germany...prob c1910...anxious to get in hand to examine!...eBay photos not great.

LOl yeah I got one of those also. Maybe he was a little of both. In the long run he is probably most responsible for cleaning up baseball!

This one arrived in the mail today. It is a 1966 original news photo of Tom Seaver during his year in the minors. I haven't seen may photos of him from that time period. Which means that I will find three more tomorrow:rolleyes:

Great Seaver photo

+1 sweeeet!

Seaver
 

Wow!! Love the Seaver photo! I hope three more do show up.

Beautiful Seaver photo, Mike.

Mike, thanks for posting the Seaver photo. I had seen it on eBay (my snipe didn't even register), but I'm glad to see it again without the huge watermark across it. Nice snag!

Seaver
 

Mike,
Great photo. I love early Seaver pics.
You're lucky I haven't been on ebay much lately as I probably would've sniped higher than what you won it for. At a minimum, you would've paid more for it.
Congrats on adding it to your collection.
Mark

Mark, I too like Tom Terrific. Growing up I always thought there was an intrinsic cool about him. I was honestly surprised to get it. I bid 100 with seconds to go and won it for that exact amount. The under bidder was actually 99.99. Normally under such circumstances I am the one left out in the cold.

Just got from Mike, 71 Buc, LOVE THIS PHOTO. Vintage Yogi

Nice one, Scott!

1951
 

Just picked up this 1951 Rockford Peaches Program....trying to get one for each year....still looking for a 1943--46--47--48--and 50 if anyone has any. Also have another 1951 to trade if anyone is interested. Thanks.
