ODDBALL items!

[71buc]

I have lots of odd stuff but will focus on the odd ball 1971 Pirates items in my collection. All of these items are fairly hard to find. Roberto and Stargell coin banks, Roberto Memorial pennant, 1971 NL Championship banner hung during the series, Bob Moose's team issued tie, blazer, watch and his Iron City Beer tie.

That's a lot of great stuff Mike -- I really like the two busts, but I vote for the Bob Moose jacket and the Iron City tie as the most oddball!

Great stuff! Got more?

A few pins I've never seen.

Misc. Minnesota Twins/Vikings buttons. Notice the different photos used for the Harmon 1969 MLB pin. Both of them are difficult to track down but the one still on the card is the most difficult.

Sorry Rob, need some Dodger stuff in this thread. This is something I never show anyone at my house, as they already think my collecting is weird, and this would convince them. It was well established that Koufax had arm issues, and here is a 1964 x-ray of (as Vinny put it) "The Left Arm of God".

Love the x-ray. That will be tough to beat unless anyone has something like a piece of a player (hair, toenail).

This is certinly odd ball. A tag designed to attach with a string to a buttonhole on your shirt or jacket.
This was to welcome back Mass. Native Chick Davies who had made good and been signed by Connie Mack. And in 9/3/1914 returned with the Athletics to play the Redsox at Fenway park.

...and I'll bet it's some of your favorite stuff, huh?

You got all artistic with your photo of the coin banks!
