Let's see your RMY Auction wins!
I managed to pick up two cool ones that match my collection well:
1) Louis Van Oeyen Type I of HB Dutch Leonard in 1916 This is a perfect compliment to my 1916 Dutch Leonard no-hit game ball that I own. 2) An iconic 1940 photo taken of Bob Feller showing his fastball prowess in a speed test involving a Cleveland motorcycle cop racing past him at 80 MPH. Feller was successful at throwing his fastball through a paper target well ahead of the motorcycle in the speed test. Not too scientific, but it was the only way to effectively measure speed back in 1940. Radar was still 34 years from being effectively used to measure the speed of a baseball. Interestingly, Feller threw his "fireball" fastball while wearing dress slacks and heavy dress shoes... Last edited by Scott Garner; 10-07-2013 at 02:49 AM.
