Been wanting a game 5 Brooks commits robbery autographed card and found it with this other grouping of cards. So I guess now I need a game 3 if anyone runs accross one.

Day 176 – 25 June 2024
How many of you as a kid made it to Memorial Stadium for Camera Day. I am showing you a couple pictures from camera day in 1973, Camera Day 1971, Camera Day August 29, 1971,and an album from camera day on August 28, 1970. I have quite a few of the photos but none from 1970 to go in my “album.” I really enjoy seeing the signs the players appeared next to.

Day 177 – 26 June 2024
Today I am showing you a 1992 Magnum Comics Autograph Edition #1 limited to 3,000. This is #184. The comic book is pretty cool and so are the pictures or post cards provided. These are not rare but I enjoy the Photo of Brooks and his comic photo. I have another one signed. This one is sealed and came along with Duke Snider.

How many of you collect random photos or non-team issued photos of Brooks Robinson. I have quite a few. Not sure what year this is but here is Brooks advertising for Schottenstein’s Department Stores.

Day 179 – 28 June 2024
Here is another random photo of Brooks Robinson Advertising himself with Busch Beer. I wonder if Brooks was a beer drinker. Pretty nice photo. I also picked up a Miller Lite beer dispenser with a ball signed. I need a way to display the dispenser.

Nice snapshots! Really enjoy these type of items.

Back in the day I picked almost any type of different poses of Brooks on a photo.

Day 180 - 29 June 2024
For the next 2 weeks leading up to the All Star game, I will show you some items I have collected over the years celebrating Brooks Robinson AS games along with the two years (1958 and 1993) Baltimore hosted the game. 1958 All Star Game was the first AS game in Baltimore at Memorial Stadium. The 1958 AS game had Triandos behind the plate who went 1 for 2. The AL won 4 to 3. Today, I am showing you two pennants from the AL team (both very rare and expensive), a pin back, the program, ticket and press pin.
