According to The Sports Collectors Bible, the BF stood for baseball felt, and the PM stood for baseball miscellaneous. The number was the category.

BF = Baseball Felt...Check

PM = Baseball Misc...??? I guess BM was already taken.

I picture Rob wearing these as he plays with his pins and pennants...

If you already have them Rob, make sure you let Marc know so he can pick them up. :D

I meant pins misc.

Thanks for the laugh, Rob...

It brought me back to my favorite moment at the last National (back when we were allowed to attend those types of things...)

The pics tell the story:

1. My wife miraculously gets permission to hold the Honus Wagner T206
2. She gets a brief rush, knowing she's holding a few million dollars in her hand
3. She quickly grows disenchanted, as she realizes it's just a boring baseball card
4. She moves on and finds a booth that's selling those same Baseball Keds... and she immediately tries them on
5. Miraculously, they fit and she is euphoric. Her experience at The National is now complete!

Sorry, but I don't understand your post. I see no explanation on the premium offer, but I am an old man whose eyes are failing...

My eyes are equally bad...

Did they really refer to them as BF3 Premiums during the time of issue? I can't see it anywhere within the text of the Offer.

Questions?
 

Saw both of these online.

I assume the Boston Yankees is a repro?

Is the Culver Cubs related to the fast food chain?

Thanks!

The Boston Yankees looks good to me. ca. 1944-48.

Love the pics. That's funny...and I could see my wife doing the exact same thing. If she would even go to the National. I mean she'd go...but she'd be as patient as I am when we're at the mall and she wants to "run into" Sephora. :)
