March pickups

[Joe Hunter]

I picked up this felt patch with along with a group of other 1920's-30's items relating to the St Louis Cardinals. It measures 8"x6" with very intricate stitching. Of course it commemorates the Cardinals appearances in the WS in those years. There are no manufacture's tags so it could be homemade. Anyone ever come across something similar?

Picked these up at a local consignment shop today... Both seats are mlb authenticated, and were removed from Busch in 2005... They'll fit nicely in ky sons room as these seats were present at Busch when the sox beat the cards in game 4 to win their first series in 86 years.

Cool seats Dave.

Picked up this neat broadside, anybody recognize any of the names written on the back?

Did you get a good deal? The Giants/Niners are asking $800 for a pair of similar Candlestick seats...which is ridiculous.

Many thanks to Brock for allowing me to add this beautiful scorebook to Monte Pearson's historic 1st no-hitter ever pitched at Yankee Stadium. Pearson no-hit the visiting Indians 13-0 in the 2nd game of a doubleheader on only 2 days rest. The scorebook came with several NY vintage newspaper clippings from the following day recapping the doubleheader sweep of the Tribe.

Ironically, this scorebook and clippings originally came with a ticket from this game as well and was offered in the SCD in the mid 1990's, but another collector beat me to the punch. I was able to subsequently work out a trade with the collector and have owned the ticket to this game since the 1990's. By picking up the scorebook and clippings, I have kept the original lucky patron's memories of the game intact, after an amazing 20 year separation. Pretty cool!

Great job Scott!

^^^ nice, Scott. To what do you attribute the differences in the autographs? Age progression, like with Mantle and Mays?

They look like they belong there.

How do you find stuff like this all the time? They look great, just like the family and the room.

FINALLY made a pickup!! The pot metal bottle opener on the left is new. I have had the SF Giants version for awhile, but had never seen the NY version. Both were sold by Abercrombie and Fitch. I believe they were made by Loyal Products but A&F must had a batch made just for them. If you've ever handled one of these, you know they're HEAVY! The SF version is most likely 1958, in that the hat emblem is actually that of the Seals. You will see a lot of stuff from the Giants' inaugural west coast season with the Seals logo...it was all most likely produced before the SF team finalized their logo.
