That Orioles plate of the final out of the '66 World Series ended on Ebay last night. Did anyone on here purchase it?

I just picked up this collection of Orioles Advocate paper ephemera from 1964-66. It includes meeting minutes, several blank birthday cards and envelopes, and invitations to various events, including Brooks Robinson Night at Memorial Stadium in 1964.

It all seems to have been in the collection of one of the board members of the Orioles Advocates.
Bill,

That is a great grouping of items. The Brooks Robinson Night at Memorial Stadium in 1964 was held on my birthday, September 18th. You may remember, but quite a few years later thy had “Thanks Brooks Day” at Memorial Stadium on September 18th as well. Very cool items you posted.
