Will do, thanks Mike!

Am very happy to add this tough Roger Maris piece from 1964 still unopened in it's original packaging.

Now, together with the Mantle I picked up last month, I've got bookends of the M&M boys!

Lots of great stuff -- Jimmy love the Babe slide and Jeff that Cardinals postcard is terrific.

Here's a couple of things I picked up -- A nice original minor league photo of Don Dysdale, and a salesman's handbill for a great Exhibit-type machine from the Advanced Machine Company.

Thanks Greg. Terrific pick ups for you as well. That's the earliest image of the Big D that I've seen. Also, that handbill is a killer companion piece for your machine! Well done Buddy.

BTW... It looks like you and I both, don't fully understand the whole "downsizing" concept.

I was able to add this neat little clip of original film to my "Pride of the Yankees" collection...

I also picked up this scarce original letter (with terrific content) and envelope from Sid Bernstein, the promoter of the Beatles concert at Shea Stadium in 1965.

According to Beatles Guru Perry Cox, there really can't be more then a handful of these out there...

Finally picked up a 1960 Gm7 World Series ticket. Uneven tear on one side but otherwise in great condition.

I don't have images of them but going through his old stuff my father recently found (among piles of other things) about 45-50 1964 world's fair hall of sport autographed programs including multiples of Brooks Robinson, Yaz, Allie Reynolds, Mudcat Grant, Bill Russell, Jerry West and Rocky Graziano. He also turned up about about 30 3x5 autographs from the Jets including 3 "Joe Willie Namath" autos and an autographed Jesse Owens postcard. On top of all that he found a shoebox full of world's fair advertising giveaways (pins and the like). Not a bad find for thanksgiving.
