Day 133 (May 12, 2020 – 133)

Coming off a World Series victory in 1983 the O’s were anticipating another great season. Here we have a large 1984 Orioles Schedule Calendar put out by Lowenbrau. As you can see, they used Magnum PI to do the batting pose for the cardboard calendar. Also, love the Orioles Walsh Bird logo with Baltimore Orioles World Champions; haven’t seen that in quite some time…

The year 1983 brings back some great memories. Here’s a small cardboard sign to get a FREE Orioles bumper sticker. Does anyone happen to have the bumper sticker from 1983?

Here’s an O’s pocket schedule for 1984 with a Brooks Busch ad on the back. I happen to have a scan with both the 1984 and 1985 pocket schedules, so you get two for one.

Was this the same situation with 93 set only with different players?

Alan thank you. I love the Oriole road flannels and Need to get one someday.

Bill thank you. Do you have any Cal Jr minor league jerseys? I’ve seen one from Rochester in an auction and that’s it.

Mark, love the photo matching the dust jacket. Very cool.

Clint:

No Cal's unfortunately, but I do own Bill's home & road Rochester tops from 1987 (plus a couple other MiLB ones).....I'll post more down the road:

Bill,

That's a great looking jersey!

Nice Bill! Rochester had some great looking jerseys throughout the years.

Another cool Witchita piece. A 1955 Witchita Indians duffle bag used by Steve Molinari.

Good morning Tim,

As far as I know, the six standard cards in the 1993 Nabisco set are all that were issued. I've never seen nor heard of a live appearance-only card from 1993.

Below is a 1963 Post Cereal card of Jerry Adair. He is one of the short-printed cards in the '63 Post set. I believe he is one of the players found only on the Bran Flakes box (not exactly a kid-friendly brand) but he's also pretty hard to find in the 1963 Jello set as well.

Very nice and seldom seen.
