great Campy Ticket Stub. My Grandparents attended that night and I have cherished them since the 70's. They are box Tickets with a $3.50 price point. My Grandparents must have been loaded!

I've recently picked up an interest in the 1974 Dodgers team. I obtained the videos of Games 1,2 and 3 of the '74 Series. A couple of months back I picked up an autographed Dodgers '74 team ball. When I purchased the ball, it had 23 autographs. I've since obtained 4 additional signatures (not shown in photos) with plans for a couple of more this weekend at the Stadium.

If Jimmy's going with Koufax, then so am I!!
The first painting depicts Koufax before throwing the last pitch of his no-hitter against the Phillies in 1964. Pinch-hitter Bobby Wine would strike out on four pitches to end the game. Also in the frame is Dodger Willie Davis in center field, who only handled one fly ball the entire evening. The second image is the moment after Koufax struck out Bob Allison to end the seventh game of the 1965 World Series, with the Dodgers overcoming the Jim Kaat and the mighty Twins for the title. The scoreboard in right thanks the Twins faithful for being the "greatest fans in the world", as the boys in Dodger blue file into the dugout and clubhouse without the fanfare we've all become accustomed to. http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b1...ax1964-RGB.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b1...orldSeries.jpg |

Wow... what a thread! Something tells me this one will go forever. I have way too many to photograph/post, but will throw up a few items which I've already saved to this computer.
Here are some Pennants.... The Batter pennant is modeled after Ruth (and dates to the mid-1930s period in which he joined Brooklyn). Interestingly, there was a Yankees Pennant with the same exact graphic (formerly in REA). The Jackie Robinson is an extremely rare variation The 1952 Scroll Pennant is a somewhat rare phantom.... |

Seeing that pose above of Pee Wee Reese makes me wonder if any of the old time ballplayers ever got injured posing for photos. Pee Wee has a lot of great "posed" action shots, his 1953 Bowman being the most famous. Notice how you never see "posed" action shots any more ...

Is that the Mick sliding into PeeWee in Loucard's photo?

Fantastic Dodger stuff guys! Let's see some more.
Quote:
A few quotes about him... "What a great team player he was. He'd hit behind Maury, take pitch after pitch after pitch. And when Maury got to second, he'd give himself up by hitting the ball to the right side, even with two strikes, which most hitters won't do." - teammate Jeff Torborg, describing Gilliam as the ideal #2 hitter. "He didn't hit with power, he had no arm, and he couldn't run. But he did the little things to win ballgames. He never griped or complained. He was one of the most unselfish ballplayers I know." - manager Walter Alston "Father, friend, and locker room inspiration that will never be forgotten." - Davey Lopes, Dodgers second baseman from 1972-81 |
Help finding out where this print is from
This is a two sided print of Roy Campanella and Elwin (Preacher) Roe. Does anyone know anything about this print and where it came from? It measures 7 1x2" by 4 3x4" and doesn't look like it is out of a book. Thanks D.

I'm about 99% sure those back-to-back pics are out of the 1952 Dell Annual Baseball Facts & Figures book w/ the Stan Musial cover.
I sold my 1950-51- & 52 issues about a yr ago and I recognized them immediately. Here is a listing for the issue w/ your 1951 pic. Each issue had 8-12 B&W pics of the previous yrs Stars & Award Winners. http://cgi.ebay.com/1952-Dell-Major-...d=p3286.c0.m14 |
Fred nailed it. Just checked my copy of the 1952 Dell Major League Baseball issue and Campy/Roe is the first page inside the cover.

Thanks for the kudos on my project. Actually thought about having you paint the boys, but since I already have pictures of them I decided against it. I saw your work before the National and considered getting one. I did see them at the National as well and I must say you are quite talented. Keep up the great work. I am sure many collectors will be proud to display your work. I may as well someday. JW |

My compliments, Streetsideguy, on your foresight and exceptional execution...that will be a treasure for you kids will never forget.
I didn't have a baseball uniform for my son when he was little, but fortunately he fit nicely into the toy suit of armor that his old man wore back in 1960 when defending the neighborhood against countless dragon attacks. Since this is a baseball board, let's just "Natural-ly" classify this under "New York Knights" memorabilia... http://s915.photobucket.com/albums/a...x/SirRoger.jpg (My most sincere apologies to the Board.

From a day at Dodgers Stadium a few years ago
A charity win that my brother in law had and he invited me to go along since I am the baseball maven in the family. That's me with Manny Mota, me with Don Newcombe and a 1961 Union Oil booklet that Vin Scully autographed for me. Newk also signed several cards for me and made a video greeting for my father, who was a Brooklyn Dodgers fanatic.

I have to find it but I have a stub of a three way round robin exhibition game between the dodgers, giants and yankees. If I can find it i will post it but don't remember ever seeing another one. Has anyone else seen one or have any idea if it has value (condition is only fair).
