January Pick-Up

[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.

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".

Picked it up in Fla. Today. Guy I got it from got it as a gift when he was 9. He is now 50. He got it from a lawyers wife after he passed away. Used to sit on his desk. Did my research and it's light to the feel and the pin is on the bottom from when it was formed. It is immaculate cond. For 1910. It is very dark in color from the photos. Thanks for the help in a previous post... if someone could turn the photos that would be great.

Trophy from 1944, the year prior to the formation of the National Girls Baseball League, a rival to the AAGPBL. The two leagues shared many players from year to year. Emery Parichy was the founder of the NGBL.

Nice item. I've got some photos, etc of women who played on the 'Parichy All-Stars' out of Chicago, back in the early 1940's.

If they are originals and you can't use them you know where to find me!

my first true exposure to baseball was the 1986 redsox... Growing up, I lived about 45 miles from Pawtucket so in 87 my parents took me to a couple of games per month... I was a young autograph hound, and I used to chase players after the game to get their graphs (pro cards team sets in tow). 1988 rolled around, and I was excited when the new schedule showed 4 rookies from that 1987 team... Recently picked up this John Mariano rookie era
Gamer that completes my 1988 collection: Marzano, Greenwell, Benzinger, Burks, & Horn

One of my first programs that I picked up more than 20 years ago was a 1908 Cornell/Penn football program. It's one of my favorites and got me really into collecting. I've been searching for a game ticket to accompany it for years. Last week I picked up a ticket stub to that game, and low and behold by luck this week I picked up a full ticket.
