Many thanks for posting those photos, Greg...

Do you recall who had the game-used Reds Jerseys?

I have the name of the dealer with the Reds flannels and knit jerseys at home, and can provide it tonight. They also had some great Reds bats, including a 67 Rose Adirondack, several mid 60s Cardenas AS bats, and others ( I have one photo of a few of those on my website -- baseballbasement.com -- I can post another tonight).

Thanks Greg... would love to get that dealer's name/contact info if it's not too much trouble. Thanks again, and hope you are having a great trip!

I cant believe I am not in that photo digging through the SPORT Magazine archives. I bet I spent 12 hours there between the 2 days. Going through those things was one of the more enjoyable experiences I have had at any National. Really great guys and amazing stuff!

Wow, you own that Cooperstown sign? That is an incredible piece!

Thank you for taking photos and sharing with those of us who could not be there.

Ted,

Here's a photo of my sign -- the flash from the camera makes the sign look a little strange because of reflective metal in the paint, but that's not the way it looks in person.

There were four or five of these signs made and posted at the main entrances to the village, three are known to have survived. Mine is not the same one pictured in the wire photo, because mine has the arrow attached.

I'll be posting more photos and video from the National later today at baseballbasement.com

This stuff makes me jealous, but is why I love this stuff so much. AWESOME sign indeed and thanks for all the other great pics from Baltimore.

Greg - I know the Doubleday Cafe in Cooperstown has a Centennial sign but I always thought it was a reproduction. Where are the surviving signs?

[sayhey24]

Hi Tom,

I think the sign in the Doubleday cafe may be the same one that hung in the Pepper Mill restaurant in Cooperstown for years (but I am far from sure about that).
There was also a sign sold by Hunt's Auctions about five to ten years ago.
The one I own hadn't left Cooperstown for nearly seventy years until I acquired it two years ago.
