Picked up this ring bat. 7 total rings with a unique coloring to the rings.

Ron- Nice bat with interesting colors. I don't think I've seen blue rings like that before.

Thank you Gary. I’ve looked and couldn’t find one either with those colors. Definitely an early bat. I’ll continue to look on here, there’s some great threads with ring bats.

Just picked up this incredible 1909 Reds Team photo. Love the exact date!

I picked this 2 1/8 inch Pee Wee Reese pin up. Unfortunately, it has some spots, the ribbon's dirty and faded but it's a scarce pin.

Mike and I have already exchanged messages, but others may be interested to know that the first 11 m114 Baseball Magazine supplements
were released in December 1916 and this was one of them.

The others were :
Dodgers Team
Larry Gardner
Charles Herzog
Rogers Hornsby
Fielder Jones

And thank you Doug for your help whenever I have had a question regarding the M114s. I admire the amount of effort you have put into collecting and researching these items. Maybe a reference book could be in the works???👊🏼

Not a huge find, but I found this baseball glove charm for sale. It’s the same ones that you often see attached to vintage pinbacks, so I picked it up.

A couple of additions to my low end Giants collection...a tray with the SF Chronicle headline after they beat the Dodgers in the 1962 NL Playoff...shown with matching mug and a mug with the SF Examiner headline...there is also a glass candy dish and pennant with the Examiner headline. The Examiner headline was better but the Chronicle mug is of better quality. They were sold at Bullock and Jones, a SF store that had been around since the Gold Rush days.

I also picked up a Wine List from the Francisco Grande. The Giants owned the resort and trained there from 1961-79. I have a ton of Francisco Grande stuff.
