August Pickups

Al, I was very much tempted by that orange Tigers pin when I saw it listed recently. It's a real beauty. Hughie Jennings is one of my favorites — just in case you've never seen it, here's actual footage of him doing his famous dance in the third base box. It's 43 seconds in ...

Thanks Chris! I was a little surprised it didnt go higher! (But it would have cost somebody) Nice to see you did a deal with Scott G. I have the Blackwell and if I did have another it would have gone to Scott... Glad he got one! And remember Im still in the market for the others we talked about!
