Major collection of Northwest baseball material stolen today in Seattle WA (Dec 18th)

[AndrewJerome]

Hello All,

For those that don't know, there are several display cases at Safeco Field in Seattle filled with antique and vintage baseball memorabilia, mostly related to Northwest baseball. Early this morning the cases were broken into. Many items in the photos below were taken. These items taken are irreplaceable museum-quality, one of a kind items that will presumably be very hard to sell. A partial list of stolen material is included below. There will likely be a few more pieces added to the list.

Again this happened today, so keep an eye out on eBay, Craigslist, antique / second hand stores, and other venues. A police report has been filed. If you find any potential material or leads, please contact me, and I will put you in contact with the owner.

Thank you,

Andrew Jerome
