Ross Barnes, a focal point of my collection, was player-manager of the Tecunsehs and I'm happy to finally get a piece from that team.

Great piece Gary, Congrats !!

I was the underbidder on both DiMaggio Zeenuts

Thank, Joe. I've been looking a long time.

Gary, very happy you got that ball. In a very short period of time you have found two needles in a haystack.
I picked up a small piece I am looking forward to trying to research. The oddball “close of the ball season”, photo/drawing. Some of the images seem very early and there is even a photographer and an artist pictured.
Also surprised that Live Oak music did not sell, but the stereoview was very nice.

[GaryPassamonte]

Bruce-The Live Oak stereoview was a different team, although I'm not sure where they were from. The Rochester Live Oaks were gone by 1861 or 1862, I believe.
I have been fortunate lately on the collecting front.

Gary, incredible ball! Congrats! Would love to see some more CDV’s or stereoviews.

Good to know that I was losing before I even started.
