April pickups

[vintagesportscollector]

Picked up this large 1907 UVM vs. Holy Cross game scorecard with three players listed that had distinguished Major League careers:

Jack Barry of Holy Cross (Philadelphia Athletics, Boston Red Sox), Ray Collins of UVM (Red Sox), and Larry Gardner of UVM (Red Sox). Barry was part of the Athletic's "$100,000 Infield", and Gardner and Collins featured prominently on Champion Red Sox Teams.

In 1915 Barry, Collins and Gardner played together on the same Red Sox team (with a young Babe Ruth), winning the World Series.

From the BST on net54, just picked up this original 1916 photo of Brooklyn Robins no-hit pitcher Rube Marquard.

Nice pickup. And that is quite the window pane uniform that team wore. Photos from that era are so cool.

I love that plaid uniform too, that is pretty rare to see.
