January Pick-Up

[bobfreedman]

Was actually a December pick-up but just found room to hang them. A five piece panel set of Winchester fame with a hunting scene on the reverse.

[JoeyFarino]

Wow!

[Dave Grob]

Can't think of a better hanger for a Brooklyn Dodgers jersey.

[bigfish]

Those ad peices are nice Bob!

[mjkm90]

I'm extremely happy to check this Pinback off my most wanted list

[perezfan]

Mike:
Sweeeet pickup.... Congrats!

Dave:
One of those Blue Satin Dodger Jerseys would look awfully nice draped on that Hanger. You must've had some pretty shrewd search words to find that obscure thing.

Mark,

Thanks.. Search words very simple... "Abe Stark." I am always looking for contextual adds for ball parks and uniforms. For many, searching for "Abe Stark" might have seemed bizarre, until they see images for the bottom of the scoreboard from Ebbets Field. As far the jersey, pretty close guess. This hanger will be used with a Carl Furillo home satin jersey as I suspect "Skoonj" saved Stark a suit on more than one occasion.

Not sure if this belongs in this section or in the autograph subsection, but was pleased to win this in the Hunt Auction that ended tonight.

I've been very slowly working on a collection of line-up cards signed by managers who are in the HOF (regardless of whether they are in the Hall due to their playing career, managerial career or other reason).

This lot includes a Frank Robinson signed lineup card, which fills a spot in my collection.

The lot also includes signed lineup cards from:
Dick Williams (HOF duplicate, so would trade this for another HOF)
Paul Richards
Gene Mauch
Ralph Houk
Jeff Torborg
Darrell Johnson

Thanks Carlton (and everyone else), my wife does not share your's nor my sentiments.

Hard to notice those Winchester signs when you eyes keep focusing on those Tuxedo signs. Great collection Bob!

Picked up a nice lot of M113 Baseball Magazine premiums

Great pickup Dan, if you have an interest in getting rid of Lewis and Tyler, let me know.

[Dave Grob]

Salvaged from Comiskey Park in 1991.

Nice Dave...

You're on quite a roll with the unique stadium artifacts. Not exactly "run of the mill" stuff

I haven't picked up a lot lately, but here's one worthy of posting...

Pete Rose Rookie-era Reds Cap with Wilson Tagging, indicating August 1963 manufacture date. Cap remains in amazingly nice shape...

Hey there Mark, great cap!
....but I'm still partial to what's underneath. 😍

I hope you had a nice New Years my friend.

[perezfan]

Haha.... thanks Brent.

Yeah, that table was just a temporary prop... albeit a pretty fancy one!

[JoeDfan]

A jersey worn by Joe Torre during the 1999 season!

I KNOW you know your stuff, Dave, but how is it you attribute this to old Comiskey Park?

I love hot dogs!

Nice addition to my collection. Hails from Beverly Field in California in 1941. Many future AAGPBL greats played there in 1941. Plaque states "Beverly Stadium Championship 1941".






Tom C

[vintagesportscollector]

That's incredible Tom. I know how hard it can be to find AAGPBL stuff - what a unique and stunning item.

[Topnotchsy]

Pair of 1948 Oakland Oaks line-up cards signed by manager Casey Stengel. Stengel's success with Oaks led to the Yankees hiring him in 1949.

[bobfreedman]

Bought this last night - double sided tin advertising piece

Cool Sign Bob, I like the die-cut design.

[vintagesportscollector]

A few pickups. The first two from fellow N54s Beatles_Guy and smotan-02. N54 is such a great resource for B/S/T. Thanks guys! The tickets are a grouping of early Cornell/Penn games and one Princeton game.

Joe...

Great stuff, and I love the Peck & Snyder Ad Card. The Boater Hat and Thayer Mask are incredible to see portrayed as items currently available for sale.

But two questions....

1. What year is that from (gotta be ancient)

2. What on earth is the doohickey pictured at the lower-right?

[vintagesportscollector]

1882. The P&S add is the back of the trade card in the 3rd picture. The trade card is an 1882 series H804-11 card. I got it because of the great P&S add. I don't know what that thing is on the lower right, and I am not sure I want to know .

[Vintagecatcher]

Congrats Bob on picking up that very cool sign.

The advertising that Colgan's Chips created is top of the line, and visually stunning.

I've been searching high and low for one of these exceedingly rare Tiger ashtrays for years. I stumbled upon this piece in an antique mall in Northville Michigan last week and could not believe my eyes or my luck. If one was going to turn up, I suppose it would likely be in Michigan. It's in pretty good condition and fits in nicely with my other Tiger figurals.

That's a SICK piece. Good job

[ksfarmboy]

Awesome Mike, glad you finally got one!

Congrats Mike!! I can imagine how exhilirating it was when you first saw it. I dream of stumbling upon rare pieces in Antique malls, but rarely, if ever, do.

[ooo-ribay]

WOW!! Fantastic stuff on the last two pages, since I last checked in!

[perezfan]

So glad you found this, Mike! It definitely found its way to the right home

[Shoeless Moe]

Mike pretty cool, any idea on its age....and last ,you sure you want that on the edge of the table like that?

[4scuda]

I got a good selection of World Series programs and ticket stubs. Stubs are from 1917, 29.34, 38, 40, and 45. Also 1947 all star game.

[mjkm90]

Thanks for the kudos fellas.

Paul most folks believe it's 30s or 40s. Here is a thread where it was discussed.

Cool stubs Mark. I like seeing them all spread out like that. Make a nice collage.

[Bushleaguer]

Great find Mike ! Thats why we all keep going to the antique malls,antique shows
flea markets because you never know what you may find,Its the thrill of the hunt!

[ruth-gehrig]

Mike - I've never found anything on my baseball wishlist in an antique store so congrats! I have a hard enough time finding anything worth a hoot that's baseball related in antique malls let alone a wishlist item!

Waited up until 3:00am central time to make sure I could fall asleep knowing I had this piece.

+1
Absolutely stunning!!

[GaryPassamonte]

Michael- Do you know where these teams are from and/or where the game was played?

[ruth-gehrig]

Thanks guys for the kind words! This was in Memory Lane last night. http://memorylaneinc.com/site/bids/b...e?itemid=42275

Hi Gary - From just some quick research so far I believe the "Fultons" are the Fultons Base Ball Club from Fulton Illinois that originated in 1867. They are the only Fultons I can find. I have yet to find any team named the "Jacksons".
