Day 70 (March 10, 2020 – 070)
Here we have a 1970 Baltimore Orioles player matchbook by Universal Match. I have a few matchbooks of the Oriole players, but don’t have all 24 in this set; may have to track them all down one day. The Brooks matchbook cover uses a familiar B&W photo of Brooks surrounded by an orange circle with Baltimore Orioles contained within the circle. I'm sure this has item has been posted before, but I really like the setup on these matchbooks.

The Orioles used this same image of Brooks on a lot of items. Here’s a 1969 Orioles picture pack using the same photo as the matchbook.
