Picked up this lighter, ca. 1957.
Apparently, Minneapolis was trying to woo the New York Giants before they settled on San Francisco. Tony Felicetta was a high school dropout turned Teamster Union boss in Minneapolis. From all accounts, he totally fit the bill as the typical tough talking 1950's union boss.

1939 Cooperstown FDC w picture and write up of Edward Grant, only player killed in WW I. I think this is super cool!

Nothing used to make me think of baseball more as a kid than seeing Mr. Baseball.
Not really what I collect, but when I saw it, I just couldn't resist! Instantly, one of my all time favorite pieces. This will go on the wall for sure. "I must be in the front rooooooow!!" |

I am thrilled to have won this Louisville Slugger mini-bat bank in LOTG's April auction, solely because one of the mini bats is Pete Runnels, who was my favorite Washington Senators player when I was a kid. I think this item is from late 1962 or early 1963, based on the stats for Runnels & Tommy Davis, assuming all of the bats are the ones that originally came with this mini-bat bank, which they appear to be. It's been 20 years or more since I've seen a mini-bat bank with a Runnels bat, and I have long regretted not buying one way back then. Whenever I've gone to big shows like the National, there are usually a couple of dealers who have assorted mini bats for sale that originally came with mini-bat banks; I've always looked for an individual Runnels bat, which would have more or less satisfied me, but never found one. I'm guessing that a Runnels bat was produced for only one year of these mini-bat banks, which is why I found it to be so hard to find.

Beautiful piece... love the blue and yellow color combo. So much nicer with the wood bats, than more recent models with plastic bats.
Great pickup! |
