Keep 'em coming, folks!

Here's a mid-1930s General Mills premium photo featuring WLW (Cincinnati) Radio's "Toy Band". Did you recognize young "Uncle Red" Barber, who didn't see a major league baseball game until he broadcast it for the Reds on Opening Day 1934?




You old-timers will also remember Durward Kirby, longtime sidekick of Garry Moore on his CBS television program.

Could not get it all on the scanner, but here is the Chesterfield give away record album cover of Russ Hodges' most famous call from the greatest game in baseball history. I bought it signed by Bobby Thomson and added Willie Mays' autograph.
Record is a 78 rpm though and I can't play it

Default "Bill Stern, the Colgate Shave Cream Man, is on...the air"

Never one to let the truth get in the way of a good story, Bill Stern was one of the most popular sportscasters of the 1940s. His radio program, "THE BILL STERN SPORTS NEWSREEL", was an NBC fixture for many years under the sponsorship of Colgate Brushless Shave Cream. You Woody Allen fans will remember his parody of Stern's improbable tales in "RADIO DAYS".

A few pinbacks.

H&B game bat made for Jocko Maxwell, the first African-American baseball radio broadcaster -- he should really be in the Hall of Fame.

Might be the only one with an entire set named after him



And the best of all time, about to wrap up his 60th season for the Dodgers.

After Harry Heilmann's career ended he became a Tigers announcer from 1934-1950.
He died at age 56 in 1951, and was inducted the following year to Cooperstown.
A shame he didn't live to see that honor, he had a .342 career average & should have been inducted sooner.

Picked up this neat piece on the B/S/T board and had it matted & framed.
It sits above my bar.

Knickerbocker Beer Ad with Russ Hodges, again too big for the scanner, but a very colorful and neat advertising piece. Heavy duty cardboard.
