LOL...not likely but as abysmal as my Orioles are even a nearly sixty-year fan like me can get tempted.

I was able to add the final piece of my 1936-1941 Reds scorecards set. Those late-30's - early 40's teams are my favorite and I find it a shame that the 39-40 team that won back-to-back pennants and a World Championship are always overlooked when it comes to great teams. You have to think that it was quite remarkable that the Reds, being a small market team even back then, were able to assemble a team consisting mostly of players from their farm system and some low-budget castoff veterans, that was able to beat the Giants (back-to-back pennant winners in '36 and '37) and the Cubs (pennants in '32, '35 and '38), not to mention a plucky Dodgers team that would win the pennant in '41. Add in there the Cardinals with their bottomless farm system and the Pirates who almost won the pennant in '38. Though most of the '36-'41 Reds are footnotes today, they had the 1938 batting champ and NL MVP in Ernie Lombardi, the 1939 NL MVP with Bucky Walters and Frank McCormack, the 1940 NL MVP - three straight league MVP's! Walters also won the pitcher's Triple Crown in 1939 and led the NL in wins again in 1940. Then of course you had Vander Meer's back-to-back no hitters in 1938. Anyway, the '36 to '41 teams are my favorite, and I'm glad to have a scorecard from each season now... |

Thanks for sharing!!
What fun to see all the Cincinnati material! Here are a few pieces. There's Joe Morgan's visa application for the Reds' trip to Japan. Kind of an odd piece.
Then there's a letter from Bob Howsam the architect of the Big Red Machine. Howsam congratulates Warren Spahn on getting inducted into the Hall of Fame. The third piece is a letter from then-Reds GM Warren Giles to Bucky Walters about his 1943 contract. About three years ago I finally made a website for my collection. The links there for the players direct to their pages on the site. If you have a favorite guy he's probably got a page too. It was really neat to see everyone's Reds' related material. Thanks for posting. |

Bullpen phone & board
Picked up some 10+ years ago the bullpen phone and attached board used at Riverfront Stadium from 2001 / 2002 season (wife was not happy). According to board 4/24/2002 was the first time Sully every farted. Pieces of chewed gum other stuff, interesting piece. Hooked up the phone and it works.

Very excited, I just purchased my first game used memorabilia. Eugenio Suarez hat, from the September 8 ball game featuring jerseys from 1995. Hit two home runs that day, 43 & 44. Wanted to buy one all season, finally dove in and picked one up after he set the Venezuelan HR record and NL third baseman record. Very excited.

Thanks. I wanted to pick up some other items from their various throwback uni's but just couldn't pull the trigger. Those blue uniforms they had early in the season were my favorite.

Ewell Blackwell's personal trophy ball from his 16th consecutive win in 1947
This is Ewell Blackwell's personal game used trophy ball from his 16th consecutive win in 1947, which was 2nd only to HOF Rube Marquard's ML standard of 19 consecutive wins in 1912 .
The game ball is also vintage signed by "The Whip". 1947 was a historic season for Ewell Blackwell. After hurling a no-hitter on June 18th, 1947, Blackwell almost tied Johnny Vander Meer's ML record of pitching back-to-back no-hitters. He went 8 2/3 innings before finally giving up a hit. After 72 years nobody has ever gotten closer to Vandy's double no-hit record... Last edited by Scott Garner; 10-10-2019 at 03:11 AM. |

Scott,
Just curious what's your most prized Vander Meer piece, and what is your yet to be obtained dream piece of his? Paul |

Most prized Vandy piece
Paul,
That is a tough choice, to be honest. That being said, I have a few pieces that are favorites. They are: Graig Kreindler Vandy original painting Vandy's personal copies of both of his 1938 contracts from the year he pitched his back-to-back no-hitters. I successfully reunited these guys from two different sources after many years Lois (Stewart) Vander Meer's (wife of Vandy) personal scrapbook from 1937-1943 that includes her ticket from Vandy's historic 2nd consecutive no-hitter 1939 Goldsmith Vander Meer endorsed mitt & box featuring Vandy artwork The 1938 signed baseball that I showed a couple of posts ago in this thread The circa 1938 Vandy pennant that I own (Many thanks to net54's Chris Gamble for allowing me to add the last two items to my collection) 1938 NY Sunday News color Vandy poster that I framed with an original celebration snapshot from Vandy's 2nd consecutive no-hitter (1st night game @ Brooklyn Dodgers) Vandy items that I would love to be able to add to my collection at this point: Anything Vandy game used from the Reds (Holy Grail: Vandy rookie jersey) Vandy double no-hitter pennant from 1938 (it exists, but I don't own one) A scored program from Vandy's 1st no-hitter on 6/11/38 @ Cinci A ticket with a printed date from Vandy's 1st no-hitter Both of Vandy's personal last out balls from Vandy's back-to-back no-hitters Probably untouchable now that Rush's Geddy Lee now owns them, BTW.

The Graig Kreindler Vandy original painting is probably my favorite that he's done. Love everything about it. BTW, I think your assessment is correct about the last out balls. I think the only way to get those out of Geddy's hands is to hope he goes bankrupt (not likely) or that you have something to trade that he really needs. |

Might be my favorite of any of his masterpieces. The Vandy is truly brilliant. He did a Jackie Robinson Painting that (for me) is right up there as well. Those are my two favorites. Oh, and the big Red Machine starting line-up panorama is right up there as well. And I almost forgot the incredible Matty from the Conlon image. And what about the amazing Honus Wagner with the stadium backdrop? That's one is just as spectacular... Ok, so it's impossible to pick just one. But the Vander Meer is just as great as any of them. Great stuff, Scott! |

Super excited to share this: 23 players, 25 cards of the 1938-39 Cincinnati Reds W-711 team issued set (2 cards are the variation year W-711-2). A large lot came up on eBay that I purchased, and it added about 10 cards to my collection including McKechnie and Vander Meer. I've been looking for the McKechnie for 2+ years.
Ps: I'm selling the duplicates on BST. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using Tapatalk

unusual piece?
There's probably not a lot of memorabilia associated with the Reds' Red Lutz.
He spent the whole 1922 season with the Red, but he had only one at bat. He got a double, and his mlb career was over.

I had no intention of buying anything for the next few months (or even year). I've got a few health bills rolling in. My wife told me she'd kill me if I bought anything. But this came up.
I saw it 4 or 5 years ago for the first time - a little cheaper than the BIN I just paid. I missed it then, though, and I said if I ever see it again I won't be the loser again. It'll be one of the top items for my 1939 and 1940 Reds collection. Super excited that it looks so presentable. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using Tapatalk

It is well placed! Next to my world series program, wheaties back, and Louisville slugger ad it should make quite a presentation. I could even put in the Ernie Lombardi bobblehead. Or I could find the Lombardi bronze statue that was a give away at the stadium a few years ago.
