Brooks Robinson and the Baltimore Orioles

[quitcrab]

Ezrine is definitely an Orioles sponsor. I can remember Chuck Thompson promoting them during his broadcast. I might be wrong with this but (it has been 40 plus years ) I feel Chuck would even give an address or a street location. Something like “ visit Ezrine for all your cars needs on Loch Raven Blvd “
Really unique photo Mark. Thanks for posting it and bringing back memories.

I just did a quick google search-no Ezrine on Loch Raven...only on Baltimore National Pike Belair. Maybe they had one on Loch Raven and closed up shop.

I enjoy collecting game used Orioles bats from the 1970's/80's, particularly those from the Bicentennial year of 1976....I'll post one Bicentennial bat a month (until I run out lol):

Here is a Mark Belanger game used bat from his only All Star Season:

Yesterday, I mentioned postcards produced by Mike Andersen. While many of his postcards focused on the west coast teams (A's and Giants), he did a group of 29 Orioles in 1969. These are very well done with very glossy fronts. They have postcard backs and most have "Photo by Mike Andersen" stamped on on the back.

These are the Orioles I still need PLUS Fred Beene, Dick Hall and Brooks Robinson (no photos available). I'm very interested in picking up any of these.

Never seen those before Alan. Didn’t realize there were so many Orioles items I knew nothing about.

Alan,

I’m not familiar with this set. Can I see a picture of the backs?

Mark,

Here are scans of the backs. Most have a blue or black stamp. A couple
don't have any stamp. All have the name written on the back.

I definitely don't have any of those. Just so cool to see something I've never seen before. I figure by now I've seen most Orioles items, but surely I haven't. Thanks for posting the backs as well.

Man, you've got a great collection. I love the Bicentennial bats even though I only have ONE. Of course Belanger is a favorite.

The Frank example might look even better than the Brooks square cut... Great looking proof.
