August - Pick Ups

[Topnotchsy]

Really excited about a couple of pickups from the latest SCP auction.

Both are from the Dodgers farm system and both are from 1946, the year before Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier on the Major League level. The 1946 Montreal Royals ball was probably the #1 item on my want list.

I wasn't familiar with the Nassua Dodgers having Roy Campanella and Don Newcombe on the team or I'd have been hunting down an item from that team as well. Looking around online I haven't seen any signed baseballs from the team (although I haven't explored all the different auction site databases yet...) I love the fact it has signatures from every person in the picture.
