And I also agree about photos of players signing for kids. There was a nice Babe Ruth one on ebay recently. I think some N54'er got it.

What is especially great about this photo, to me, is the date and information it provides. The day before the club announced Gehrig's fateful diagnosis. I'm sure Lou already knew it, it just hadn't been announced to the public. You can see the concern on his face. Most Gehrig photos show his great smile, but not on this day. So much on his mind, yet here he was still signing for the kids when no one could have blamed him for sitting quietly in the clubhouse.

Not to diminish your sentiment, but the retirement announcement was made on June 21. The way the statement reads it is referring to this being the day after the announcement.

My bad Kevin. Thanks for correcting me in a kind way.
In my quick read, I mistook the period after "June 22" for a comma. Even so, that's something I probably should have known.

Max Kase (American writer and editor) had many successes during his tenure as sports editor of the Journal-American. In 1941, Kase founded the Hearst sandlot baseball program.In 1947, he organized an annual all-star game featuring the best players selected from local all-star games in cities with Hearst newspapers. The national all-star game was played at the Polo Grounds in New York and was called the Hearst Sandlot Classic. Kase solicited Babe Ruth to serve as chairman of the event. The Hearst sandlot program ultimately produced 50 Major League Baseball players, including all-stars Whitey Ford, Al Kaline, Joe Torre, Tony Kubek, Bill Freehan, Mike Marshall, and Bill Skowron > from Wikipedia

Here is an example of a mid '50's jersey and jacket from a Hearst AS Game.

The Giants have a couple of those....pretty rare. At one point, I ended up with flickers of Drysdale and Koufax and couldn't give 'em away. Those LA D**ger guys are cheap!

Picked up this Raybestos Brakettes sign a few weeks back, and just go to clean it up... from the estate of Softball Hall of Famer Vincent "Wee" Devitt & something that likely hung at Raybestos Memorial field in Stratford during the 1960's...

Cool sign that is a little larger than 3' x 1" and makes note of their championship 1966 season 74-4!!!

Today has been a very good day. I'm sitting by the pool at the Phoenix Embassy Suites enjoying a couple of Cuba Libres. I got a bit of a sunburn watching the A's and Reds earlier today. Now I am getting ready to head out for a nice steak dinner. The perfect topper for this glorious day was this Pirate hedonist picking up this full opening day ticket for my beloved 1971 Bucs. I know its not vintage but it warms my heart. I fell in love with baseball in 1971 because of this team. As the saying goes you stay with who took you to the dance. I suppose you could call this my ticket to the dance:D

Separated at Birth?

I believe there is one other known example, but yours is the only one I've actually seen pictured. I got mine about a decade ago. It wasn't cheap, but has remained one of my very favorite figural pieces.

I love the gothic look and gigantic hands (supposedly, Wagner had huge hands). I suppose these could be bookends, due to the shape and flat back sides. But they certainly don't seem heavy enough to support many books. Much more decorative than functional, if indeed that's the case.

I just refer to mine as "The Honus Wagner Statue". Glad to see he has a long-lost sibling out there :D Thanks for posting!

The way that Scott keeps his many tickets is perfect, I'm sure he will show you how he does it.
