Thanks for all the pictures and thanks, especially, for the recap of the Spalding's Foot Ball box. I don't personally believe this, but some folks say if you WIN an eBay auction you are just a sucker who paid more than anyone else in the world would pay for a particular item. It's always easier for me to come in third!

Thanks a lot for the kind words about my booth Carlton! It was nice chatting with you, and I am glad you ended up with the Rugby bottle. When I first picked it up, I thought of you first, so I am glad that is where it ended up. Great job with your photo coverage too.

You're welcome...yeah that Spalding box phew!...what an artifact...

It was nice to meet you, Carlton. I agree - Keith J's booth was a great one. I also really enjoyed William P's booth that he shared with a buddy (yikes-I forgot his name! my sincere apologies). It's amazing what William is able to do with his bat creations, and that super-glove! I apologize to these guys for not coming by at the end of the show and trying to deal for one of their 100+ yr-old gloves, but it would have exceeded my sales! (and have been worth it)

Carlton -
Amazing photos, as always. Thank you for posting them!

One item caught my eye that I knew I had read about before. It was the 1896 Football Calendar pictured near the top of Page 5 of your photos, in the right column (it's in the lower left corner of the photo frame).

I keep an archive at home of informative articles I've read over the years or pieces that I'm particularly interested in and l flipped through it last night.

Sure enough, I found the article I remembered, and it turns out that you wrote it! It's from the June 13, 2003 copy of SCD. Hopefully the scans can be read.

Below is your photo, with the scans I attached of the article you wrote. I wonder what booth this was from or who is selling it?

Thanks!

Hey Brad, Good eye...Thanks for posting photos of the SCD story...that was a long time ago!...SCD edited out the original ending for their print version...which of course I think took away from the story...above is a link to the full version...Yeah John and Priscilla Ross had that...
