Post card to Mother
 

Holy cow! What a neat piece. Is it for sale Kenny?

Wheat
 

Thanks Kevin. It isnt for sale.

Kenny never sell it :)

Wheat
 

Thanks Octavio..

Who's the "third baseman" with Wheat in the postcard?

Neat stuff!

Wheat
 

Thats a good question, someone a lot smarter than me can probably figure it out. I think I have a letter where he talks about the third baseman but it may be from a different time period. I will take a look at it.

Any photos of Wheat with TY COBBS?

Wheat and Cobbs
 

I'll play along..Wire is Wheat Cobbs and Boley..

Cobbs letter to Wheat
 

Here is a Cobbs letter to Zach.

Kenny,

Absolutely Beautiful!

Wheat HOF Induction with Cobbs
 

Here is a photo from Zachs Induction, Cobbs is next to Zachs Daughter.

Cobbs
 

Thanks James.

Cob
 

Its not Ty Cobbs its Ty Cob. This one belonged to Zach Wheat.

Awesome Kenny, I don't know where you find this stuff.

Wheat show-and-tell?
 

here's my Zack Wheat item from the 1900's...not as cool as any of Kenny's stuff, but definitely not your run-of-the-mill item either!

He is pictured with his younger brother, McKinley "Mack" Wheat, who also played MLB for Brooklyn. I presume the youngest in the photo is another sibling.

Wheats
 

That is his brother Curtis. He also played a little but never made it to the big leagues. Nice piece.

Wheat Rookie
 

Derek, here is Zachs true rookie card.

I'm mildly disturbed that you even own that "card". You think a TPG would slab that thing? Where's our facial expert when you need him? The ears are all wrong!!

I'm trying to figure it out, thought it might be Pryor McElveen, but it's not. I would love to know, anyone have any thoughts?

Wheat
 

Derek, it came from the same place that yours did. I think you were kidding.

Yeah - I'm kidding (my sense of humor doesn't come out well in written form). I was going to state something to the effect of the baby looking more like Mack than Zack...

Also, was Curtis nicknamed Crack to join Mack and Zack??

In all honesty, where were these items introduced to the hobby? I was disengaged from the hobby for a 7-8 year span.

Wheat
 

They came from me.

Nice stuff, Kenny! The depth of your collection never ceases to amaze me!

That's incredible!!! One would think there was a large Wheat family estate sale w/ all the quality and one-of-a-kind items you have!! Very nice!

Does anyone have any idea who the 3rd baseman next to Zach is?

Zach Wheat game bat -- it's the third from the bottom in both photos. Sorry the closeup is a bit out of focus.

Greg

Nice bats..

Great items. Seeing that baby photo of Wheat brings back a bad 'missed deal' memory: I spotted a cabinet of Willie Hoppe as a child, and thinking it would slip under the radar, bid fairly low to avoid getting bitten by shilling. I lost :(

Anyway, great Wheat collection.

Nice Conlon Scott. Thanks.
