Baseball Magazine supplements : 2017 different.

[doug.goodman]

I bought a new Ruth caption variation on ebay yesterday, I'll post pix when it arrives.

This will be my 22nd different Ruth m114 (involving 7 different photos)

My new Yoggi Berra, and below it is a comparison of the four Berra m114 issues that I am aware of.

Added another Joe Medwick m114 today. I now have 7 different using 3 different pictures.

First photo is the new one. Second photo are all 7 supplements, highlighting the differences. Third photo are the 4 caption versions of the one I got today.

Alan Kleinberger and I have now cataloged 1,350 different m113 & m114 issues (it's possible that same of them don't exist), this is the 1,275th that I have.

It's been an eventful last month.

I finally got the Fred Lindstrom that I have been close to a couple of times, but never managed to snag (from sellers who probably still haven't sold).

I added a Billy Terry with a photo that neither myself or Alan Kleinberger knew existed.

And, I snagged the 1912 Giants team that the catalog said existed, but I hadn't previously found proof of. Due to it being matted, I wasn't sure how much it may have been trimmed when I bought it, I was concerned that some of the caption may have been gone, but once I received it, and removed the matting, it's all there.

I've also added a few font variations.

I'm up to 1,282 different m113 and m114 issues.

It has been pointed out to me (thank you Bruce) that the 1912 Giants team poster features a picture with uniforms that are not from 1912. I date the posters based on their release dates as defined by their first appearance in advertisements in Baseball Magazine. This is sometimes kind of complicated.

This poster is first mentioned in the Sept 1912 issue, and then shown in the Oct 1912 issue of Baseball Magazine, so I define it as a 1912 poster, although it might not be the 1912 team.

Edited to say that : a few minutes on the Retrosheet site shows that the picture must be from 1909, because of the presence of Arlie Latham (at the age of 49!).

It has been kind of boring in m114 land recently, except for one that got away in the H&S auction, until I picked up a Doc Steen collection Rudolph York from a board member (thank you Paul!) which I received today.

There are three different York pictures in the m114 set that I am aware of, one with him batting (4 caption versions), one with him in the dugout (3 caption versions) and one with him in a catchers pose with his name as Rudy. The Doc Steen version has his name as Rudolph.

So, here is a scan of my new York #1,295 in my collection, #1,369 in the catalog.

The second scan highlights the caption differences.

Take a look at Brockelmans current auction Doug. It will quell your boredom for a while.
