February Pickups

[Scott Garner]

I recently picked up this cool original photo from the 1941 season.
It features Johnny Vander Meer photographing HOF greats Grover "Pete" Alexander and Tris Speaker on the field before a game that included an Old Timers celebration of sorts.
The photo measures about 7 1/2" X 8".

BTW, I'm uncertain where the photo was actually taken. If anyone recognizes the stadium I would appreciate you letting me know. Thanks!

Nice pic Scott. Now you have to find the pic he took 😜

Picked up this Mets jersey, and got some opinions from you experts (thank you!) last month or so.
But I finally got it in a frame, and found a similar photo on eBay to go along with it. I think it looks pretty good on the wall!

I picked up these rolls of stickers today. I have no idea what purpose they served. Nonetheless, I have never seen them before and that's a pretty good barometer for me to add something to my 1971 Bucs collection. If anyone has interest in the roll of Steelers stickers please PM me.

Great image Scott! Nice pickup!!

Scott - Very neat photo.
I think it is Doubleday Field in Cooperstown. The Reds played the Indians in the Hall of fame game in 1941.
It looks like the stands of Doubleday field in the background and the context makes sense too.

Thanks for the info Jack! That does make perfect sense about the HOF game being the venue.
