Photos of my bedroom as a kid

[whiteymet]

Hi All:

Found some OLD photos of my bedroom from when I was a kid. Probably from about 1963 or 1964.

You can see my set of Hartland statues, lots of Phillies stuff, Post Cereal, 50's and 60's Topps, Jay photos, pennants, HOF postcards, Exhibit cards, Salada coins, Red Man's..... funny all the stuff I still like to collect!

Anyone else have old photos of their room when they were a kid??

Very cool.

I don't have photos but do still have lots of the cards/posters/pennants that were taped/tacked to my walls.

Do you still have any of the items pictured?

Awsome pics!! My walls were covered with thumb tacked 70-72 baseball / football. Can still see the posters.. Mantle, clemente, Maravich, Rose. Also lots topps Supers pinned up. Thanks for sharing!!

Very cool Fred. I do not have any pictures to share but only had a few things up on the walls such as some pennants.

I will also ask, do you still have any of these items?

Hi Erik:

I have quite a lot of what you see, however, I don't think I have any of the exact items in the photos. Just replaced most of it through the years.

For instance, I have all the Hartlands now with all the boxes and tags (which of course I threw away as a kid), but none of my current Hartlands are the ones in the photo.

Very cool, Fred.

I might have a few stashed away in a photo album somewhere. I'll have to look.

I didn't have nearly the kind of spread you did, but I kept a series of the hand drawn Milwaukee Brewer posters done by George Pollard on my walls. They were beautiful. Here's the official 1981 poster:



I kept those, and a bulletin board with a lot of Packer/Brewer/Bucks cards. Back then the Bucks and Brewers were good, and the Packers stunk. Now it's the other way around.

That's a lot of fun to see. I had GI Joe toy in my room.

Very cool, I think I can make out topps, post and red man cards from 1955 thru 1963 plus a lone 1961 fleer basketball card in the middle of all of it, Paul Arizin? Thanks for sharing

My dad had one of those baseball holders visible in your photo that sits on a green plastic diamond. His held a Warren Spahn signed ball. What was in yours?
