Another cool October pickup.
Here is a neat original photo of Sal "The Barber" Maglie being carried off the field by youthful HOF'er Don Drysdale and Ray Campanella during the celebration following Maglie's no-hitter in September, 1956.

This weekend's finds...

- Large 1903 football pennant. Sadly, the felt "0" has fallen off over time.
- Cover of the Canadian Illustrated News from 1874 featuring a woodcut of the
famous international match between the Harvard and McGill football teams.

Just completed the restoration on this Original Yankee Stadium seat I acquired a couple months back. This was my first time restoring a stadium seat and I am very happy with how it turned out! All wood and screws are original and I also left the screws unpainted so you can see their age. Custom built a home plate to mount it to for added support. Thanks to Al for the advice during this project!
