Heritage winnings anyone?

Coachdude...

I was under-bidder on the Shaving Mug. I think you got it for a terrific price. Normally, I would have hung in longer, but this lot came so early (within the memorabilia segment) that I had to conserve for the upcoming barrage. It's a great piece, and tough to find them in such great shape... congrats!

It's funny to converse with the people who bid above/below you here, but also kind of cool to see who won what

I agree. It's rare to see an 1860s baseball photos from that far west. Usually the East.

Perhaps you could contact a New Mexico historical society or library and they'll publish the photo as the earliest known photo of New Mexico baseball. Would be neat to have published distinction/documentation for your CDV, and probably would enhance to the value.

Thanks, Leon.
David- I will do some research on the image. Your suggestion is appreciated.

I know what you mean about saving money. There was so much in the auction that I would like to have had. I'm going to have too ask my wife for an increase in my allowance.

I was able to win the 1935 WS ticket. Almost all the items are outside my budget, so I have to pick one and hope I get lucky.

That's a great baseball CdV, nicely posed.

A couple of odd 1927 Yankees items, belonging to member of the team. If anyone has a hi-res scan of a real cover, I would love to use it to make a 'new' cover:

• coverless World Series program
• Spring training itinerary with Ruth drawing by player
