Most prized Vandy piece
Paul,
That is a tough choice, to be honest. That being said, I have a few pieces that are favorites. They are: Graig Kreindler Vandy original painting Vandy's personal copies of both of his 1938 contracts from the year he pitched his back-to-back no-hitters. I successfully reunited these guys from two different sources after many years Lois (Stewart) Vander Meer's (wife of Vandy) personal scrapbook from 1937-1943 that includes her ticket from Vandy's historic 2nd consecutive no-hitter 1939 Goldsmith Vander Meer endorsed mitt & box featuring Vandy artwork The 1938 signed baseball that I showed a couple of posts ago in this thread The circa 1938 Vandy pennant that I own (Many thanks to net54's Chris Gamble for allowing me to add the last two items to my collection) 1938 NY Sunday News color Vandy poster that I framed with an original celebration snapshot from Vandy's 2nd consecutive no-hitter (1st night game @ Brooklyn Dodgers) Vandy items that I would love to be able to add to my collection at this point: Anything Vandy game used from the Reds (Holy Grail: Vandy rookie jersey) Vandy double no-hitter pennant from 1938 (it exists, but I don't own one) A scored program from Vandy's 1st no-hitter on 6/11/38 @ Cinci A ticket with a printed date from Vandy's 1st no-hitter Both of Vandy's personal last out balls from Vandy's back-to-back no-hitters Probably untouchable now that Rush's Geddy Lee now owns them, BTW.
