November Pickups

[Hot Springs Bathers]

Wow, Mike down to two on the 1934 Gashouse Gang is impressive, funny but I started them about the same time as the 1927 Yankees and have had not worked too hard on it, I had the Dean's and Durocher already.

I am starting a much more modest 1978 Yankees & 1982 Cardinals project along with a color 8X10 postwar Yankee project along with a color 8x10 1960s Packers. You can tell when I grew up.

Mike, the 77-78 Yankees are also a project I'm planning on working on, but it's kinda on hold as other projects like the 61 yankees need to get finished as well. Check out www.mab-celebrity.com. They are having a show in Jan with 61, 81 and 96 yankee reunions, but the 81 team had a few of the 78 team members on it.

Will do, thanks Mike!

Am very happy to add this tough Roger Maris piece from 1964 still unopened in it's original packaging.

Now, together with the Mantle I picked up last month, I've got bookends of the M&M boys!

Lots of great stuff -- Jimmy love the Babe slide and Jeff that Cardinals postcard is terrific.

Here's a couple of things I picked up -- A nice original minor league photo of Don Dysdale, and a salesman's handbill for a great Exhibit-type machine from the Advanced Machine Company.

Thanks Greg. Terrific pick ups for you as well. That's the earliest image of the Big D that I've seen. Also, that handbill is a killer companion piece for your machine! Well done Buddy.

BTW... It looks like you and I both, don't fully understand the whole "downsizing" concept.

I was able to add this neat little clip of original film to my "Pride of the Yankees" collection...
