August pickups

[GKreindler]

KILLER photos, Sean. Seriously. If you ever get them good and scanned, let me know!

Added this handsome (I like the colors) c. 1910 mug that fits well into my Cornell collection. Not especially valuable, but rare in that I have come across many mug/stein types over the years, but have never seen this early version before.

Love those photos Sean!
I've always wanted Wille Mays pine tar, and finally picked up a can.
The programs and 1929 WS photo with Al Simmons and Mickey Cochrane came from a local show.

Nice! I'll assume you saw the Cornell stuff in the Inside the Park auction...?

Just picked up this (not so remarkable photo) on eBay, showing a suspender-wearing man at Yankee Stadium in 1938. He's sitting in a free-standing Windsor chair, identical to the one I obtained last month from Lelands:





But let's look more closely. Notice the twisted-wire added to the chair to tighten up the wooden pieces:



And here's the identical repair on my chair:



Well, I thought it was interesting.

That is interesting. Nice provenance for the chair....and I am pretty sure that is Joe Jackson in suspenders, unmistakeable ear.

Super-cool, David!

Nice... That photo is "gold". Might be worth as much as the Chair itself (given the unlikely photo-match!)
