Thanks. I've got the Plow Boy and the pin back, but hadn't seen the Conlon photo before. That's a great shot. It's also neat because Billy Sr. invented that chest protector he was wearing.
I've seen the Breisch before but couldn't afford it. It's also exactly the same picture as that used in his T206 and Sporting Life cards. The banana bat is an interesting story. Evidently my grandmother gave it to one of her caretakers at a nursing home before she died. Billy Sr never actually used the bat (it was given to him by a fan) so I wasn't as interested in bidding on the auction (which got out of my price range, anyway).
Here are some links to my collection
