October Pickups

[Scott Garner]

It seems like I continue to pick up unusual Charlie Robertson related items in 2017.
Many thanks to net54's Jeff Potter for selling me this unusual playing day autograph cut of CWS perfect game pitcher Charlie Robertson.
Charlie was obviously having some fun when he signed this ledger or team sheet most likely sometime between 1922-1928. Instead of Charlie, he instead signed it "Many Hit" Robertson, which is an obvious wink that prior to signing it he hurled a no-hit, no-run game that was the first game to ever be called a "perfect game" by the newspaper scribes the next day.

I put together a "little" display of ephemera I got with the Loraine Day banner I picked up earlier this month. Included in the display is a scan of an invitation to a dinner party hosted by Leo Durocher and Loraine. The invitation is notarized by Ima Rooter, Killy Umpire, Trow D. Bumout and Sek N. Gesser I have no idea where I'll display the display.

You need to either get a bigger room or start the overflow into another room. I guess you can go full hoarder and start stacking on the ground to ceiling...😳

I just picked up a large group of memorabilia from the estate of Robin Reed (google him, he may be the greatest amateur wrestler who ever lived). Included in the lot were his 1924 Olympics badge and belt buckle, framed photos of the Olympic team, a menu from the Olympics signed by everyone who was at his table, a large poster publicizing a world champion match against Jack Reynolds and a scrapbook filled with good stuff.

Wow, Dan, what a haul! Congrats!

[ksfarmboy]

Very cool Dan. Do you know where his gold medal is?

[yankeesjetsfan]

Awesome stuff guys. Rob, love the Giants additions!

Not full hoarder quite yet. I "cantilevered" a couple of shelf brackets off the side of a bookcase. Full hoarder is not far off.

I know I am going to regret this, but I am falling in love with glove boxes..
