I really enjoy seeing all of the oddball items and I'll have to post some more Brooksie junk if no one posts (since that's all I got).

Rob... Know you gotta have some unique Giants items to post.

David... Those Brock odd items are awesome; got some more?!?

Al... Keep 'em coming!

In the meantime how bout a pic that screams the '70's.

Default Ryan Proof

Bob,

Forgot to mention that I really liked the Ryan proof. Can you provide some detail on this one?

Been enjoying this thread - I have lived in the oddball baseball world for a long time, so fun to see the posts! Been meaning to contribute, but work and life stuff always gets in the way!

I really like the H-O Oatmeal records. Picked one up with the original envelope and order form quite few years back. Nice combination of a color and a b&w image on the front and back.

I agree on the H-O Oatmeal. I picked up my only one at a National several years back when it just caught my eye on the last day as something that was a perfect buy for leftover cash. Also have the order form but no envelope. Too bad they didn't have a larger player selection though.

Nice Campy, Todd! I am guessing that it was probably a NYC and surrounding area thing, given the Brooklyn address of the company, and the selection of 2 Dodgers, 1 Yank (Allie Reynolds), and 1 Giant (Whitey Lockman). I have seen them listed as 52 or 53, but the envelope is postmarked January of 55, so I am guessing 53 or probably 54 is more likely. I would suspect that the record has them speaking and giving tips, but I have been hesitant to drop a record needle on mine!

I really like these records as well and especially like the way the B&W portion has the player displayed with the cool looking field background. Thanks for sharing.

I know the O's had a few over the years; here's a pic of one...

Cool Babe. He "made" home runs.

Default Yaz

I don't think you can get that much more odd-ball than "KIELBASA POWER"! Love it... Thanks so much for the pic; VERY cool.

Also, that Yaz patch is NICE!

Thanks you guys for posting some oddball stuff; you'd probably get tired of seeing Brooksie oddball junk if you didn't.

Thanks, that patch is a 1978 Penn Emblem player patch. It's currently at PSA. They grade the set, but have never graded the Yaz.

The first is a self explanatory unlicensed item. The second piece was made to keep your cigs from getting crushed. There is a 1951 schedule on the back.

Here's a coffee percolator presented to Ira Blue when the Giants arrived in SF. My buddy has one presented to Eddie Murphy (presumably, not that Eddie Murphy). Also shown is a coffee decanter. Here's the lowdown on Ira Blue:

Rob,

Thanks for sharing! You pretty much know that someone has to have great odd-ball items when they have (no cards) in their signature.

Love the items!
