Now I need the Rempel Brooklyn Dodgers "HoJo" or "Campy the Tramp" from that same era.

Send me a message if you have one of those you might part with

Big Chief Erie is awesome at any price! Nice pickup!
Sweet!!

I posted this in the postcard thread as well, but this just arrived a couple of days ago.

Briggs Stadium postcard, postmarked 1955.

Really excited to pick up this 1945 Jackie Robinson Negro League photo. It appears to be a wire photo. First one I have ever seen.

I'm not certain if this is from his time on the Monarchs or if it was barnstorming with the KC Royals but definitely from that era.
