1949 Padres signed ball
2 Attachment(s)
Here's a 1949 San Diego Padres (PCL) signed ball I recently acquired. The eBay seller listed most of the signatures, but somehow he missed both Minnie Minoso and Luke Easter in the description, so I got it for a song. Bucky Harris, Max West and Jimmy Reese also signed it. Since I'm a Minoso collector, I was thrilled to pick this up ...

Ted Lyons no-hitter scorecard & stub update- HOF Yankees HOF Tony Lazerri's ML debut!
Quote:
To my surprise, in addition to the Lyons no-hitter, there are some other really neat games in the Score Book. The 15 year old patron scored the 1926 Fenway Opening Day game that was played on 4/13/26. The Red Sox hosted the Ruth/Gehrig led 1926 Bronx Bombers. In this game, Yanks HOF'er Tony Lazzeri makes his major league debut and also records his first hit and scores his first run. :eek: Other games that were scored included a game vs. the Philadelphia A's in which HOF greats Ty Cobb, Jimmy Foxx and Eddie Collins all appear. Way too cool! Prior to this find, no play by play existed for ANY of the games scored in this book. Retrosheet.org can now knock off 10 new games from 1926 and 1927. What a fun pickup!! |
Another restoration project
A big thank you to Matt for allowing me to purchase his Hartford batter figural that had been painted by what appears to be the same little artist who painted my Chicago pitcher. It cleaned up very nicely and completes my set. As you can see in this photo, the pitcher has already begun to darken and I expect the same with the batter.

Looks great. Enjoy it. Matt |
Bat pickups
I picked up a this group of bats at an auction earlier today. I am more of a football guy, but I really love the look and feel of the spalding ring bat. The others in the group are a Spalding P3 bat, a Goldsmith bat with ring on the end (is it proper to still call this a ring bat or does it post-date that term?), a Reach Burley decal bat, and a thick handled bat with no visible maker mark but does have something marked/written on the barrel. I posted a closeup of the writing; Can anyone make it out? I am guessing its the original bat owner's last name. I am posting a seperate post about the Spalding ring bat, with some closeups, questions.

I just picked up two cool Johnny Vander Meer Type I photo sequences on eBay this week. Both of these were taken shortly after Vandy had thrown the second of his back to back no-hitters in 1938.

April Pickups
I picked up this group of items at an antique show today. First is a Draper & Maynard - Converse shoes bat. Then a group of 4 early baseballs; the first one is a two tone red and tan figure 8, the next is a possible 1890's figure 8 ball which is not completely round, and then 2 other balls I don't know what to make of yet. Lastly is a 1927 Golf Tournament trophy Reed & Barton Cocktail pourer.
