Paid $10. Not a glove collector. One is in good shape the rest are pretty rough. Thought they would be good decorations for my man room.

My first two photo pick ups for August. I was really pleased with the 1942 Greenberg WWII picture. I thought the P-51 Mustang served as a perfect backdrop. The Hodges is from spring training 1953.

Sold as chocolate molds. First one is not mine but was sold on eBay back in June. He's holding a bat. The one in the 2nd picture I picked up at a local antique mall. I'm not definite on it but is it a player holding a ball??

Nice photos Mike. I just recently saw the wire photo of that Greenberg and thought how nice it would be to have the original.

Quote:
1. The motion of the swing. 2. The atire of the figure. Standard turn of the century golfer with the knickers and jacket 3. The baseball mold has a visible handle while the golfer doesnt and wouldn't The reason it does not show a club is because a golf club is very thin and would not last out of the mold. Would be too brittle. The person making the mold would usually add a small wooden club.Also, your mold is not a chocolate mold but rather an ice cream mold. Chocolate molds are generally very thin and made of tin while the mold you have is actually quite heavy comparatively and made of pewter. Are there any markings on the mold like 463 I wish I remember what book my dad found the mold in but it is indeed a golfer. Has decent value though if I remember correctly http://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedi...-time-golfer-1 Heres a link to the same mold that sold in 2006 |

Max Schmeling
Had to outbid an internet bidder, but I prevailed! I don't read german, but I think it translates into "BFF".
An interesting note: There was a Frank Valk who died in 1961 in Lakeland FL, about 45 miles from where I picked this up.

1934 Baseball Graphics Ink Blotter
Nice colorful graphics. From the days when they promoted butter as "Good Food and Good Health" It appears butter makes you a better baseball player

Same size as a standard baseball but really heavy. Made out of cast iron. Nice folk art feel to it.

Thats a beautiful photo of the 1938 Minneapolis Millers. I love the Schuykill Haven pin as well. I dated a girl from there many years ago your pin is far more attractive. These are my most recent original photo acquisitions: 1934 Pirates Spring Training L-R Chas. Lucas, Gus Suhr, Larry French, Pie Traynor, Fred Lindstrom, Paul and Lloyd Waner, 1941 Slaughter, 1960s Cepeda By Ken Regan.
