Joe D and the Rook wirephoto (I have a Type 1 of this from Joe D's estate - always nice to pair the original with a wirephoto sample)

Hope you did well.

What did the '26 Yanks go for? It's one of the best IMO of all the Yankee Team photographs.

I missed that Maris at the Babe's monument. Would love to add that one to my Maris collection.

Like you, I also like to match a TYPE III with the original TYPE I. I think they present wonderfully together.

Although I do have an incredibly clear TYPE III (wirephoto) of Joe & Mick, I don't have my hopes up too high that I'll ever find a TYPE I. Good luck to you tonight as well. Sincerely, Jimmy

Jimmy - The '26 team went for less than $500 - I was surprised, really. Thought I'd lost that one. (I had a mutual friend help to give it a 90% accurate Type 1 status, just based on the scans. The U&U stampings lead me to believe it is a Type 1. )The 1923 went for 3-4x more.

I have quite a few original team photos of the Highlanders/Yankees, but missing many from the late teens, 20'-22', 25', '27 & 29'-'31. Don't care for them beyond 1932 or so.

Didn't know you collected Maris. Will see if I can part with that one

Great stuff, Jimmy. There are quite a few Maris shots in this auction left. I loved the one from the perspective of the on-deck circle, the one with his follow-through and the #9 on his back.

I have a game-used 1960-1961 Maris bat - the 016 model, I think - the one he stopped using in April of '61, and a wirephoto from LA of the standard swing photo.

What a collection you have.

I picked up one photo last night, the 1936 Cal Hubbard (Umpire) photo. Went for the minimum bid price of $100 which may have been a little bit high but it fits nicely into my collection as it pre-dates his 1955 Bowman Rookie Card by nearly 20 years.

i think i got a good deal on this Gehrig (c.1935)...it has some condition issues, but is a type 1 example.

p.s. i am told by Legendary that the white "streaks" are much more subtle in person.

Hey Phil, not sure if you are aware of this or not, but there is a 1920 Chillicothe Business College football team photo postcard that pictures Hubbard on it. I used to own it, but I sold it to another Net54 member (can't remember who I sold it to though). Of course maybe you don't care for his football career, but I'm guessing it has to be the earliest appearance by Hubbard.
