Picked this up from John Rogers out of his Sporting News Archive. The Lincoln Chiefs Princess of 1953 as voted on by the players.

Also picked up this Exeter vs Dorchester, Nebraska postcard...A few years back I found some Exeter baseball postcards in my great grandmother's stuff...It's possible that I have relatives in this photo.

I found this neat work order from the construction of the original Yankee Stadium that opened in 1923. It's from the Osborn Engineering Company (the architechs) to the White Construction Company(the builders of the stadium). It involves the mezzanine of the Stadium.

12 inch tall

Picked up this table lamp a week ago at the Sacramento Antiques Fair...The figure is a hammer thrower about 12" tall....Interesting lamp....the figure appears to be stock, i.e., not an add on deal...the way the lamp post is attached looks pretty well done and as old as the figure...and everything matches...patina and all...found by flashlight...gave a whopping....drum roll please....$20.00...and it works, just needs a lamp shade...the top part where the switch is is shiney, but with a shade it won't show...Photos are kind of lame, took on the fly...looks better in person

I bought this great store model glove of 'Ol Cy from fellow board member Kevin Mize over the weekend. It looks great for being over 75 years old and will be a nice addition to my no-hit pitcher collection. Thanks Kevin!
