Vida Blue no-hitter ticket
One of my favorite pickup from the 2019 National was this really nice example of the super scarce Vida Blue no-hitter ticket on September 21, 1970.
Many thanks to long-time hobby friend & dealer Mark Macrae which found this for me. This upgrades the one I previously had in my collection that took me 44 years to locate. Only 4,284 people attended this game making this absolutely one of the most challenging no-hitter tickets to find post WWII. BTW, the 2019 National in Chicago was a blast! I had a lot of fun hanging out with many hobby friends. It was great running into Carlton, Graig Kriendler, & Tim Carroll from net54. Last edited by Scott Garner; 08-03-2019 at 06:41 AM.

Awsome Vida Blue ticket Scott. I have been here two days and have not found one 1971 Pirates ticket. I did pick up this Clemente memorial item which originated from the Clemente family. I'm getting my Reggie Jackson gamer signed today and will fly out tomorrow. I attended the Net54 event last night and met a few people. This has been a great experience. Sorry I missed you.

Great stuff guys!
Mike might appreciate this addition to my low end Giants collection. The postal district, rather than ZIP code, dates it pre-1963. Alas and alack, it did not light up when I installed a fresh "N" battery.  Has anyone seen similar light up pins for other teams?

I totally agree. Both of them were very meticulous. I had heard bad thinks about Reggie being unfriendly. He was quite the opposite with me. When I handed him the bat he held it in his hands and commented to his assistant that it was the real deal he said it was a gamer. He stood and took a little swing with it and said. "Wow this one feels so right". He smiled and asked me where I got it. He signed it and then rolled back and forth on the table before handed it back to me. He shook my hand and was delightful. It was interesting watching him admire the bat like a craftsman. I suppose that is what makes bat collecting so enticing. He certainly was not the ogre I have always been told he was.
