1904 cincinnati reds stenzel rooter pins
 

Does anyone else have or collect these?

It’s amazing you’ve found ten of them. Are there others?

Rob, there are a total of 18 so I've got a ways to go... I'm hoping I can find some more by posting on here. Anyone???

Perhaps try Nick Senzel?

Sorry... couldn't resist. Seriously, I have never owned one. They must be soooo rare. Great looking set, and best of luck finding more to add to your collection. Maybe Al (or someone who can truly add value) will chime in.

Great stuff!

Boy those look great all together like that Chris!

There are at least two copies of Noodles Hahn out there.
Here's mine that I've had for many years -- another just sold in the latest Hake's auction (maybe we'll see that one posted here too!)

It must be quite a rush to find one you don’t have....assuming that ever happens.

Frank "Noodles" Hahn 1906 Stenzel's pinback
 

Noodles Hahn pitched the 1st no-hitter in the 1900's.
Guilty as charged.
I recently added him after a rather long search.

Great work Chris! Good luck finishing the set!

Stenzel's Rooter Pins
 

I finally got my two pins in. Nothing compared to what you guys got but I'm happy!

I had a couple of interior and exterior views of his Exchange to accompany the pins....

This one is from the great flood of 1913 when downtown Cincinnati was flooded into the stadium and surrounding community.

I also have a nice little note from his great-granddaughter.

AWSOME post!~ Love the pics

Amazing those are so cool! I am not far from Cincinnati so I'll have to keep my eyes open for them when treasure hunting at estate auctions and in antique shops. You never know what will turn up in the oddest places where you would never expect it.

Treasure Hunting...
 

Cool! Good Luck! I'm in!!

Love the photos John.

That's great John. Thanks for sharing!

I wonder what happened to the 40 mounted photos of boxers behind the pool table? Gazette supplements? Cabinets? They look larger than T3s.

I have some stuff from his estate, a mini-bat that was his son's, a couple pieces of pottery and trophies and a bunch of family photographs, but no rooter pins.

Stenel Estate
 

That's neat Rhys! I'd love to know what that entails? Is it all listed in your store?

Boxer Photo's
 

I can't tell you how many times I've looked at that image under magnification looking for anything from his playing days. I can't understand why there isn't really anything baseball in the cabinet? Maybe boxing was popular at the time with the patrons? I love the depth of the image, however! I've always assumed that was him behind the bar closest to the camera?
