Very nice.

Got this in the mail today after sending it about a week before the regular season started. I had the woman at the post office weigh the return envelope with the book cover and figure the postage for it. For some reason she figured it wrong and Goose was kind enough to add the extra 1.10 to it when he mailed it back. I will be sending him a couple buck to cover it and a thank you letter in the next few days. One more HOFer off my list.

Sean, those Monty Python signed figures are very neat. Congrats on finishing the set.

So much great stuff that has been auctioned off lately between Heritage, the outfit that sold the Steen items and many others. I was excited to get the one that I really wanted.

I've finally matted and framed my 1960 Pirates team. This was a labor of love as it's my birth year and my favorite all time team. It took several years to get this one together, mainly because Pirates trainer Danny Whelan was so damn hard to find. Oh sure, I found a few on basketballs (he was also the Knicks trainer) but who knew he'd be so hard to find on something I could matt.
Anyway, this I believe, is one of if not they most complete 1960 Pirates around. It has both the major owner (Gailbreath) as well as minority owner (Bing Crosby), it has everyone that was in the team picture including traveling secretary Bob Rice, special asst (and HOF'er) George Sisler, and every other player that wore a uniform that year...with the exception of the batboys which I just don't collect, and I was also able to pick up both Bob Prince and Jim "Possum" Woods.
Special thanks to Jim Stinson for helping me get the Clemente and the Olivo, Bill Corcoran for the great (and surprisingly hard to find) Lenny Levy, and our own Scmavl (Jarrod) for turning me on to the fact that Jim Woods was the second announcer.
Now this one is to bed, I will be working on my 1934 Cardinals and the 1919 Blacksox.
