Just picked up this c. 1923 Yankee Stadium box chair. (If anyone is interested in purchasing a Yankee Stadium 1923 folding slat-backed seat, please let me know.)

Very nice seat Dave! Going along with the seats. I picked up a Briggs/Tiger Stadium box seat from 1912. The red seat is from Engel Stadium in Chattanooga. Babe Ruth, Harmon Killebrew, Satchel Paige and Negro League teams have played there.

^^^ Love the stadium seats!

I was finally able to cross a long sought after item off my wantlist. Mike Egner (the pennant guy; Lefty147 on the board) picked this up in Missouri and sold it to me. After some hard fought negotiations , Mike got about 60% of what he was after and I paid double what I wanted . Mike is in Boise and I'm in Salt Lake...he didn't want to ship it and I didn't want to drive six hours and burn $125 in gas...as it so happens, I have a Las Vegas friend whose son lives in Boise. He had a trip planned anyway, so he picked it up and hand delivered it to me. I spent some time cleaning it up and put a new 15' cord on it with an in-line switch. I think it ended up where it was meant to be . The two shown in another picture are two I already owned. I think there's one more...

I love the one on the wall in the bottom picture. Never seen anything like it. The design is exquisite.

Thanks. It kind of screams "1960's," doesn't it? I forgot to mention, my new acquisition also contains a San Francisco 49er's team photo and 9 other, non sport screens. They scroll manually by using two knobs on the right hand side.

WOW! That is an awesome piece. The other two are just such cool items as well. You have a great Giants collection and I really like the way you have your collection displayed.

My only flea market find from this morning. The bat in the photo is a nice Spalding Gold Medal. Also picked up a Ebbets field postcard.
