March Pick Ups

[daves_resale_shop]

Picked this one up a few weeks back and got it back from the framer yesterday...

Cut piece of Paper signed by Mark Roth: The New York Scribe who was credited with naming the Yankees (first used in print in 1904 & later stuck in 1913)... Years later, Roth was hired as the Yanks travelling secretary by Jacob Ruppert and held the post into the Dimaggio years... I also read in a recently published Yankees book that Hotel Concierges would frequently mix up Roth & Ruth's room reservations while on the road... Mark often found his key leading him to a penthouse suite, which the Babe didn't seem to mind because he never slept!!!

I found the oddly shaped photo of the 1929 Yankees with Roth second in from the left on the second row (Gehrig has arm around Roth)

Far from a yankees fan, but happy to pick this one up given its baseball history

Very pleasantly surprised at the hammer price.

Signed by artist and subject, 23" x 29"

Picked this up from a board member. It has changed hands a few times in the last few months. I can assure you it won't be changing hands again for quite some time. I absolutely love it!
