March 2011 pick-up thread

One of my most exciting pick ups in awhile. Probably, my favorite mini bat ever. 22 inch "small signature" Lou Gehrig. It came out of the Legendary sale with some real nice mini's that I'll be selling.

Great pickups guys.
I added a few pieces to my Eagles collection recently. The first is an early Philadelphia Eagles gamer, being worn by Ernie Steele during the 1946 to 1948 era. Shows fantastic use, with huge team repairs. The next piece is an Eagles oddball piece: its a Johnny Hero doll in its original box dressed in a Philadelphia Eagles uniform.

Kjjavic,

I just wanted to comment that I am by no means even close to liking the Eagles(Steelers fan), I really love seeing your collection, it is awesome.

Special Kudos on your sports room.

Thanks for the compliment J.McMurry, much appreciated.

The following three Indians postcards, circa 1954 (the calendar in the second PC shows August of that year), are interesting to me. Though I'm not a fanatical collector of team-issued Tribe PCs from that era, I will pick up ones that interest me. The backs of these are identical to those of the team-issued variety, but I don't think they fall into that category. I've solicited opinions from a couple veteran postcard collectors I know, but we've been unable to reach a consensus. I'm still trying to figure out the identity of the guy in the suit. I have ruled out Joe Jackson.
