Connie Mack

Gorgeous uniform, Dave. And, as always, great stuff being shown here.

I saw this in an antique mall in south NJ a while ago. I didn't buy it because it was priced to high for me But it struck me as being such an unusual, "one of a kind" item.

I especially liked the full name signature. How cool it must have been to say that your business was the "American Baseball Club of Philadelphia".

Here's a cabinet photo with player/manager Mack & the 1897 Milwaukee club.

Incredible items from Mark S. (uhhhh....not shocking), and terrific items from others, including Jeremy's stellar 1897 cabinet.

Mack's A's played Spring Training games with PCL teams in the early 1940s, at Anaheim and other California spring training locations.

Here he is with:

1. "Kewpie" Dick Barrett, Seattle Rainiers
2. Arnold "Jigger" Statz, Los Angeles Angels (Thanks again Dan B.)
3. Joyner "Jo Jo" White, Seattle Rainiers

Also, an A's team ball, and a 1943 Mack-autographed program.

Wonderful artifacts and images. I may have to start threads like this more often.
