Show me your displays and memorablia rooms

[Archive]

Posted By: Clint

Well Joe and Dan called me out last night about my displays. I have many things in storage so I had to find some things which was no small task. I'll post images as I get them ready. The first photo is of my Wichita Indians minor league collection from the 1950's. There's also a tiger figural that came from the estate of Ralph Winegarner who managed in Wichita and also played for the Cleveland Indians. -Clint

Dan, I think this may be a mammoth mount. The photo in front is about the size of your new Nebraska Indians photo.

Great stuff Clint...and of course you had to show off that Wichita v Lincoln Athletics item...that is awesome!





This room no longer exists in this form here, but I like this shot.

Thanks Dan. I'll try to post some more pictures tomorrow. I see you've added a couple more dolls. I'm guessing Shoeless Joe and Christy. I wish I had the room for displaying that you do.

Clint - Tell us about that ring bat..looks nice.

Dan- I think I haven't seen that image of the bookshelf with gloves, very nice. Do you have all your stuff in one room or do you have some in other rooms as well?

Here is a link to my site where you can see many photos of my memorablia room.

Joe, I have stuff all over the house. I can decorate anywhere I want except our bedroom and her kitchen. Maybe tomorrow I'll take some pics around the house....I have a wall in my family room that is filled with gloves/photos/equipment...and I have most of my bookshelves down in the basement. I also like to change my displays from time to time.

Clint, good guesses on the dolls you got them exactly right. My mom is going to make a Nebraska Indians doll for me next.

Joe, there's actually two ring bats. The yellow one is a Spalding, it's very light and I believe made from willow. The second one is a JF Hillerich and Son. It has a dark green band on the end and gives an early address before they moved, something like first st. The center markings are stenciled on and it's big and heavy.

Dan, one day if not now, those dolls will be your most treasured items. Your mom does a fantastic job.

Thanks Dylan. That pennant is not rare, although I like it a lot. Mike H has the same one (you can see it in his photo). Goes for about $75-100.

Mike H. - Is your email down? I sent you two emails that got kicked back.

Max,

Did your wife do the painting of the Seattle pitcher? That's one of the coolest baseball paintings I've ever seen!!!

Great stuff Clint....I see that Fun And Frolic book. What is the poster item in that top photo?

Posted By: Clint

Dan, it's a supplement from a newspaper. Eddie Plank is on the right and the guy on the left I never heard of. I liked it because it's in color.

Sorry for the water marks but I don't want anyone using my images on ebay or anywhere else. I know it takes away from the pictures but you can make them out ok. I will be taking a few more pictures soon.



























More to come soon. I am glad to see this board and many other great collections. I love it when I can see other people like the same stuff I do.

Trevor,

Great pieces. You have a legitimate concern for using the water mark. My dad and I were co-authors of a book on Brewery advertising a few years back. There have been more items (ranging from buttons, to clocks, to t shirts) that show up on ebay which were made from copying items from our collection than I can keep up with. I've emailed these sellers of junk and occasionally something gets retracted, but I guess that's the internet for you. Thanks for posting your collection.

I know Max. They are using the auction photo from the one I own to duplicate them too. I wish auction houses and others would water mark there images. I know it could be photoshoped but at least they would have to work a little harder at it. Image theft pisses me off!!!

Trevor - Thanks for sharing. Your pieces are amazing. I look forward to seeing more. Your den looks like quite a special place. Can you take wider angle photos of the room? Would like to get a sense of how the whole room lays out. Txs!

to collect and put my rooms in order. Here is a pic of 3 of the 4 sizes of Heubach and a peek at my clutter. The rooms you guys have shown here are quite special. I have a new camera and will try and take a shot or two when I figure out how to work it.....
