Many thanks to board member ThomasL for the heads-up that several of these from a recent REA lot had been listed on eBay!

Congrats Nate! I'm glad you finally landed one of these.

Thanks Scott! Just wish our run at that REA Lot had been successful!

Thanks for the comments on the Giants ad poster Scott, Marc and Carlton.

Amazing stuff posted by all this month, that pool table is off the charts.

I hit up two flea markets this weekend, and found a handful of things. My favorite was an umpire shirt from John Kibler -- he was at first base for the Mookie-Buckner play.

I've been waiting years for this cap at a price I want to afford and finally nailed it at Hunt Auctions.

I've been collecting these premiums for about 15 yrs - have a few not displayed like the game and the photo of the Babe.



Here's the display I have on the premiums - the one you can't see is the charm bracelet which I'm guessing would not be real popular with the guys...sorry for the lousy pic.



A few of these are very hard to find like the club membership card and the "Infielding" pamphlet I believe.

Cool display!
