I love how it shows Whitey as a coach. Other than 1955 Billy Herman, no other coach cards spring to mind.

What a pretty 52 card. The Boggs RC always makes me smile-- love the colors on it and I have a vivid memory of a kid named Andrew in my 1st grade class bringing one in and showing it to me.
Stumbled across this insanely centered Ted Williams last night on eBay. Was priced above all 3s but under the 4s so could not resists, as I have wanted this pair of cards in my collection for a long time. 1941 was one of the coolest seasons in baseball history. "56" and ".406." That they both achieved those miraculous feats in the same year, and have two beautiful cards in the same set from that very year, representing the two classic divisional rivals, is just so cool. In having our collections tell the story of the game, I think the 41 Play Ball Joe D and Ted cards are up there with having a Shoeless and Cobb, or a Gehrig and Ruth pairing; some players just have entwined legacies. |

Matt, as strange as it may be, considering how many baseball cards I look at in a given week, I've never seen the Joe D and Teddy Ballgame '41 Play Ball cards together. They're beautiful.
I will own both. Absolutely. And I'll put them next to these: ![]() ![]() All sorts of Man Cave thoughts are rushing through my head, guys. Baseball on one side, movie memorabilia on the other side, and a home theater system to end them all with black leather studio seating in the middle.

Ben, you nailed it! Some people I know think I collect to hoard what they feel is useless stuff. They always have that "why would you pay money for that piece of cardboard or whatever? " What they don't understand is, as you said, the insight and the passion. When any of you guys or me collects, we are celebrating the game and preserving our country's past. Since the Civil War, baseball 's history walks stride for stride with America. My appreciation for the game and its greats grows every year. I love the nostalgia, the logos, the colors.....all of it.

The background on the Eck RC shot is another noteworthy detail. Really pleasing to the eye. Reminds me of the background of the 1975 Ryan HL #5, one of my favorite cards ever.
That Fisk is steal of a mint card for an 8.5 price! I adore both the Joe D and Ted figures and those Life Magazines. What great pairings. The 41 PB's would look awesome next to those! Stache, glad you dig them as a duo. The Joe D 41PB has always gotten a ton of hobby love but when you add the Ted beside it, it's a case of 1+1 equalling way more than two! In showing them to my son they segue perfectly into a discussion of that amazing historic season for baseball. Plus the write ups on the card backs are like a time portal to much simpler era. I will try to scan the backs later. Last edited by MattyC; 03-25-2015 at 03:56 PM. |
