April 2011 Pick Up Thread

I think players and friends saved a lot more of Heinie's Bottle bats than other people because it was a novelty. I have owned 2 different (an early reach which was CORKED and a H&B 125). In my opinion there are 20-30 at least known to exist which is A LOT for a 1910's-1920's player. Still should be worth more but Chris is right, these are $800 - $1200 bats but cool for sure!

I picked up this 1970 Minnesota Twins banner. These are pretty tough to come by so I was pleased to add it to my collection.

I'm a Pepper...you're a Pepper... wouldn't you like to be a Pepper too ? (Keep your eye on the ball!)

Thank you! I was very excited to get it as this one doesn't show up to often and to have it be in great condition was an added bonus.

Just got in the mail. Definitely not vintage but has a lot of meaning for me. In this game, a kid (Mason Tobin) that I coached in junior college made his MLB debut. The first kid that I coached to reach the show.
