So I recently acquired several items from the estate of Vincent "Wee" Devitt
Wee is a member of the USA (ASA) softball hall of fame... He is best known for his time with the Raybesto (also an employee) brakettes and Cardinals (men's team)... The Brakettes are arguably the best Women's Softball team in the US, and Wee's managerial record of 370-39 netted him a hall of fame bid... he was an employee of Raybestos and Sikorsky aircraft and managed both teams... This lot consists of the following 1-Vincent's 1912 birth Certificate 2-A pretty cool ceramic Baseball ash tray with crossed bats 3-A metal baseball glove that is losing some of its gold paint (probably another ashtray)but perfect for holding a baseball 4-Shellacked baseball dated may 30, 1949 with 9 legible signatures including Wee Devitt, & Bill Simpson (who I believe to be the same Simpson who founded the Raybestos Brakettes) 5-I think this is the coolest piece of the lot... a cool folk art paperweight made of wood Marked "Roofers" ... the base is solid wood, above it their is a spool, one side has a thermometer (clearly doesnt work as it hasn't been 70 in ct in about 6 months and the other side a clothespin) -There are various phrases written on this one and it is dated 8-30-60 -Some of the Phrases include: "If you can't bash it leave it alone" "If you can't hit, cross them up bunt Another Cool Lot $40 Shipped-or I would be happy to entertain offers on the entire collection |
