Very cool! I'm currently looking for a nice Berg as well.

Thanks Phil! I have a few others as well. I find they tend to sell for a nice price, but still display very well.

I'm no expert on these, but I think they don't produce them anymore.

Cheers,
Blair

Here are my March additions courtesy of Jim Stinson.

Cleaned up! Nice stuff.

Congrats on all the stuff you are amassing. Great collection. I am not sure about the 2 latest Pujols. I have refrained from buying him. Hard to know

Thank you. I agree on Pujols being tough to judge. I purchased them from a collector that I trust and does a lot of in-person stuff. I definitely wouldn't purchase from ebay blindly though.

One last new addition for the week

Really nice Ichiro!

Carl Erskine triple signed check
 

Not a difficult signature overall, but definitely a cool check, IMHO... :cool:

Here is a TRIPLE signed Carl Erskine personal check to add to my collection of checks signed by no-hit pitchers.

Oisk threw two no-hitters, one in 1952 and one in 1956 for the Brooklyn Dodgers. Carl Erskine is one of the nicest former players on the planet, bar none!

Erskine is awesome. He called me one time after I sent him an old photo to sign. He looked up my number and wanted to chat about that picture.

Scott, I'm not a check collector but am a huge Erskine fan. I have obtained a few autos through the mail from him and he was by far the nicest and most complimentary person ive gotten. I wrote him a thank you letter and told him it wasn't necessary to write back. He hand wrote me a 3 page letter back thanking me for remembering him. He included a lot of personal information in it as well (ie, he wears his 59 WS ring, has 9 grand children and 4 great grandchildren, never kept any baseball things except rings, etc.)
Really nice piece. Congrats!
Drew

Nice Rizzuto!

One of my all-time favorite players.

Thanks Drew!
BTW, your story really illustrates what a cool guy Erskine is. Thanks for sharing that with us.

Thanks Kyle! I especially like the Miguel Cabrera.
What a terrific early Miguel sig!

Branch Rickey
 

Got this wonderful Branch Rickey & George Weiss signe newspaper photo from Jim Stinson. Thank Jim!!! as always much better than I expected

Cool part about this is that it has an article on the reverse by Dan Daniels regarding Hack Wilson's Death so the photo has to date from late 1948...

Yeah, that is a great piece for a hundred bucks Jim charged. wow....

#210-Liked the vintage Ruffing signature, but purchased for the signature below it. Originally sold by Jim S.

Beautiful Ruffing and Mr. Lazzeri;)

Just picked these up from Scott. Can't wait to get them in my hands!

Wow, those are sweet!

Oh, 'me' Scott :eek:

I was looking for a Lobert signature and ended up picking up a bunch of others.

I really like the Cobb letters.

Really great pieces. I have always liked Wagner checks because of his ornate handwriting, and Cobb letters because their content is always interesting.

Just arrived today. "The Boys Baseball Book" by Mickey Owen and Frank Farmer autographed to Lou Boudreau by Owen

Ted Williams Signed Rookie Pic
 

Pretty excited to Add this one to my son's Ted Williams collection... And I have loved the image ever since I first saw it...

Some of you may have seen this photo... PSA/DNA uses it as an exemplar for its autographfacts site, and I have used (a copy) to display with one of my vintage Ted album pages...

In any case, I was trolling ebay the other night and saw that it was up for sale... I contacted the seller (Who purchased the item in 2009 from Leland's) and was able to make a deal at the Wilmington show yesterday...

Cool Vintage Ted sig and photo, Mr. Presale.

Nice pick up! I was watching that and thinking of getting it since it was signed on my birthday! ;)

Great Tony Larussa. Most famous FSU law school alumni.

Did you win the lottery? The amount of acquisitions over the past few months is amazing.

Figured I would end the month with a bang

BOOM. Awesome:)

That is a nice CJ.

Very nice! I did get one more this month, but I won't even post it! I love the Cracker Jack.

Don't be shy. I love to see people's new stuff!
