Thanks Mark....I think it would have to be the piece of Dick Perez original artwork I acquired about 10 years ago via an in person auction at the annual Ripken Aspire Gala .

just a heads up that Brooks is the cover subject of Beckett's latest edition of their "Vintage Collector" magazine (nice article inside about his cards & collectibles)...My subscription copy got a little beat up so I'm going to pick up a fresh copy at Barnes & Noble...

Happy Thanksgiving!

Understand why that would be a favorite. Really like the background on this piece as well; kinda exudes the Perez vibe.

met up with a buddy to share our annual holiday season meal as well as to trade some items & I picked up from him this Country Time Lemonade drink mix from '93 which shows Brooks on the box & promotes the card set they put out in conjunction with it...

Hi - I have over 110 PSA graded Orioles (mainly commons, some stars) from 1954 to 1983. I am looking to trade with anyone that has other PSA graded O's cards - as I have many holes in my O's team sets to fill. Please let me know if you need any of these and we will work something out. Thanks!

while perusing eBay this morning I noticed this 1972 Red Sox program which shows a couple pictures of Brooks in the upper left corner & while I don't recall ever seeing this before, I thought some people may be interested in picking this one up.

I did pick this Red Sox example years ago. I thought it odd that the Red Sox would put, not one, but two images of Brooks on their program.
