Some amazing pickups by people here this month! I like mine although it set me back a few dollars. This is probably next months pickup as well!
If you can't read the center of the trophy because of the reflection from the camera-- it says---Rockwell Silver Company Trophy Annual Baseball Game Peacock Vs Hyman and Co. 1913 Won by Peacock's 18-6 L.Perlman Mgr. The interesting this is that surviving on the backside are pieces of an article about this game/trophy as well as a picture. The trophy has never been removed from its case as far as I can tell. |

Thanks. This piece comes from the estate of C.D. Peacock........Charles Daniel Peacock....whose father started a jewelry company in the early 1800's in Chicago Illinois and I think are still in business to this day. The Rockwell Silver Co. started in business in Meriden, Ct. in 1905 and was founded by Lucien Rockwell and James W. Mackay.

That's a beautiful and very unique style of Trophy... I agree that the newspaper photo makes for a tremendous complimentary component.
Congrats! |

I picked up both of these items at separate times but wanted to combine modern with vintage for display purposes (the drawing was created by Scott Silvers). I just got the piece back from the frame shop yesterday and it looks great now that I have it hanging up
Overall dimensions are 45" x 30".

I picked up a great Herb Pennock George Brace photo. It's an 8x10 and is currently for sale if anyone is interested. (The scratches are on the plastic sleeve it's in)
