Default Not necessarily new pickups in the month, but recently back from the framer...


1952 WS Game 3 piece (DiMag throws out 1st pitch) signed by 9


Pair of Yankee-related stock certs


And my personal favorite, an original snapshot of the Babe and a couple of young autograph seekers.

Not very old, but I just picked up Holtzman Signed Sports Classics series copies of "The Long Season" by Jim Brosnan and "The Boys of Summer" by Roger Kahn. I have not read Boys of Summer and now that I've really dived in to those great Dodger teams, I'm really looking forward to it. I read The Long Season back in the 70's, and remember it as being one of the best baseball books I had read at that time. I think it will be worth re-reading.

Default 1938 Carl Hubbell and Johnny Vander Meer fountain pen signed cards

I just picked up two high quality fountain pen signed 2 1/2" x 3 1/2" cards of HOF'er Carl Hubbell and Johnny "Double No-Hit" Vander Meer from 1938.

These both originally came from a New Jersey collector that put together a beautiful 1938 scrapbook of top stars and personalities from the period. They will make nice additions to my personal collection of no-hit pitcher signatures.

BTW, my collection includes the signatures of over 250 different no-hit pitchers dating back to the 19th century.

Nice pickups Scott. I love the old style Hubbell. By the way, do you know how many different pitchers have thrown no hitters? How many more do you need?

Mike,

Thanks for asking!

According to Wikipidia there have been 272 "official" no-hitters that have been thrown since 1875. In addition to that there are other "unofficial" no-hitter games that have been thrown in the major leagues that no longer make the cut since the rules defining a no-hitter changed in 1991.

I have been collecting much longer than 1991 so I continue to collect tickets and signatures of all major leaguers that have thrown either an official or unofficial no-hitter in the major leagues dating back to 1893. For those of you that don't know, 1893 was the year that the mound distance changed to the modern standard of 60' 6".

A few of the names that I need are either completely out of my price range or virtually not available in the hobby. (Vic Willis, Addie Joss are two for example). At present, I need 21 signatures to complete my collection.
Not too bad as I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

I just got about 10 cuts of each of those. I will be printing certs from the "print a cert factory" tonight and I can make you a great deal on them

Thanks Graig & Mike! This is a nice example of his early autograph, way before he had the unfortunate stroke later in life.
