September pickups
3 Attachment(s)
Great stuff from Clean Sweep last month. Here are a few faves I picked up.
1) Ernie I've been waiting for for a while. I was hoping for one with the periods like I use, but this will have to do:) 2) How can you not love the name Phenomenal Smith?? 3) For my WWII collection, Robin Roberts' discharge papers. Think someone lost a pile flipping this from Hunt. |
Great pickups Ken. I was able to secure a couple of great items from them as well.

NYT T. Kepner

An oddball item i'll tuck in here...
Family friends with the Kepner's, whose son, Tyler, is the New York Times' national baseball writer. In the late 80s/early 90s, he self-published his own baseball periodical, to which my family subscribed. Hard to tell you how many of these I *ruined* as an elementary school student. Several years ago, when promoting his book "K", he was gracious enough to sign several surviving copies... |

1939 Lefty Grove signed GPC

I just picked up this HOF Lefty Grove 1939 signed GPC.
This is the nicest signed Grove GPC that I have ever come across. Grove beautifully signed the GPC in fountain pen using his better signature that features really nice flow with flourish. IMHO, the extra added typed bio on Grove and picture put it over the top. :cool: |

Dutch Jordan

Excited to add a 1908 letter from A.O. "Dutch" Jordan regarding a former teammate Phil Sitton who played with him in Atlanta. Dutch had a brief major league career from 1903-1904 but is included in the T206 set.

One of my most expensive purchases ever. The 2nd picture I have had for awhile and might think of trading for a signed card I need of equal value. Possibly a autograph not on a card of a HOFer I need but I have most of the easier ones. I'm keeping the double signed one
