Default March pickups

A couple of things for my low end Giants collection. The hat was nothing the Giants sold but something a lady fan put together in the early 60's. The pin on the back has been attributed to the 1962 World Series. The poster is huge. 25x38. I had planned on resizing the frame to fit exactly but decided "screw it; I only wanted to preserve it and have no wall space anyway."

Poster looks sharp in the frame. The white backdrop helps it pop.

Thanks, guys. Funny (possibly boring) story on the frame….I had planned on the ultimate el cheapo poster frame. On those, the little clip on edges are plastic. Cut the cheapo “plexi,” cut the back cardboard, snip the clip on edges and, voila, you have your new size. Michaels was out of those frames, even tho they said they had 3 in stock. I used a 40% off coupon and got this much nicer frame for the same money ($25). I was gonna cut the corners with a metal saw and reattach them with some flat L shaped things I found lying around (drilling required; no big deal). Then, I realized the plexi is glued to the frame and the back is actually masonite, not cardboard. In the end, I coulda done it but decided to leave as is. Maybe someday; maybe not.

Rob,
That fan hat is cool but I love this pin/button! I've never seen one before. Is this something the Giants released, or a fan made as well?

I like that one, too. Kinda of rare but not exceptionally so. There is a similar Twins example in Paul Muchinsky’s book with a 1965 WS ribbon attached.

That's a great looking Oaks piece, Chris.

Here is my most recent pickup. Giants snow globe. Oooribay says this is only the second one he has ever seen, and I think he said he saw a Dodgers version for sale in a 1969 catalog maybe?

I bought what is supposedly Barry Larkin 1995 Topps Vault items. No Topps certificate. I've been looking for items like this for a while.

Wow that Giants Poster is really nice! I remember going to see a couple of games in 71 as a little kid. Willie Mays was at the tail end of his run as a Giant but at least I can say I got to see him play.

Yeah, four HOFers on that poster. There is a nearly identical one for 1972 but Mays and Perry were gone. Both posters are pretty rare and I’ve never seen a 1972 for sale. In any case, I’d rather have the 1971 - better players and Division winners for the first time since 1962….and the last time until 1989. It was tough being a Giants fan. It’s getting that way again.

That's a great flanel. It's only bettered by the players name. Are there many better player names than Angel Bravo?
