Brooks Robinson and the Baltimore Orioles

Love the farmers bank and trust bank. I need to get one someday.

I have one head bank that just has Baltimore Orioles on the bottom portion.

Really neat looking HOF pin…

The Wooden “Robinson #5” sign I picked up from the Cooperstown Hall of Fame store. It is new but really like the craftmanship. It is pretty heavy and looks old.

Today I am showing you my PSA Registry Complete Set of Rawlings 1964-66 Premium Photos. Some of these photos match the Rawlings Big 8 Glove Box that can be cut down into single cards or 4 player panels. My set is not in the best condition but is #1 on PSA with over half being highest graded. There are 9 different players with three players having 2 different photos. Included is Boyer (Cardinals and Mets), Davis, Groat, Mantle with black undershirt and no undershirt, Brooks with glove at waist and glove on knee, Spahn, Tresh, White and Williams. Finding the Mantle with the T-shirt was the most difficult photo to find and a bit expensive. The Brooks with the glove at his waist is out there but harder to find then the other Brooks.

Day 204 – 23 July 2024
In 1979 the Orioles fell short on winning their 3d World Series. Despite not winning, they had a great team. I have a lot of different mugs, glasses, cups, and steins featuring the Orioles. I found this mug recently with the names of the players and coaches. Of course, Earl Weaver was the manage with Cal Sr. Frank Robinson, Elrod, Frey, and Ray Miller. You see the players listed including some of our favorites Belanger, McGregor, Palmer, Dempsey, Singleton, Martinez, Flanagan and Murray. Nothing fancy but happy to add to my collections.
