Not a depiction of a particular player, just representative. That series used the same head with the big dimples for all teams.

Thanks. Nice pick up by the way!

Not my primary collecting focus, but two things that I really like are unusual pennants and boxes.

The Curse of the Goat
 

From the last time the Cubbies participated in the Fall Classic. Thrilled that this is a starting position player who had a pretty good World Series. I have seen rings from the Cubs 1938 appearance, but not one from 1945. Would love to know if there are others out there as well.

Dave Grob

I had always heard them referred to the "Gordie Howe" series

Great looking ring Dave!

Jack Quinn, who appeared in both the Goudey and T206 sets:

I had not heard that term so I googled and found the following from 2014 Huggins & Scott auction for a set of three of them:

"Synonymous with the sport he so thoroughly dominated, Gordie Howe was not only portrayed on the Detroit Red Wings 1967-1968 Gold Base bobblehead doll, but was the likeness on dolls for the remaining teams in the set, as well!"

I see that term is used by The Nodder Exchange, too. Although I really don't see the resemblance, great to know as another search term as I try to find the Blues blue sweater version.

Thanks!!

Here's a cool 1922 Toronto Baseball Score Book and a Chicago Cubs vs Cincinnati Reds Folding Scorecard (Stanley Hack Photo) from the 1930's

Added a Comiskey Park stadium seat to my seat collection. The top is painted white. I read that this marked the different sections of seating? Does anybody know if this is true or does anybody remember going to Comiskey and seeing these? Thank you for any info.

Belated Jan 2016 pickup
 

I have to catch up on my pickup sharing so I apologize For bringing up old threads. I have pretty much hit my limit for 2016 in spending already so I thought I would share. After all, I enjoy bragging and this is the only chance I get This year.

Attached I have added a very high end Gehrig photo to my collection. It is one of the earliest examples in a Yankee uni and by the master, Charles Conlon to boot(1924). It fits into my early Gehrig Type 1 photo collection. The early ones are the toughies(especially of the top photographers).
