You would think i would ahve a great chance to find one of those Peach posters considering i live 10 minutes from Gloversville but i come across nothing dealing with the company, only thing i know is where the old factory was.

Thanks Mark -- it's fun finally being able to show some stuff.

Here are a couple of ad pieces from sporting goods stores. The Mays bat is a giant bat (appropriately enough) -- well over four feet long.

I went to school in Johnstown (which is about 2 miles from Gloversville) and never came across a Peach poster either although I always looked. Also, I co-founded the Fulton Montgomery Sports Historical Society (the museum is now in Gloversville) and we did find some information on Peach but no equipment to display.

Jon,
I went to the museum two weeks ago to see the baseball stuff. It was good to see different baseball things from around the area.

Home Run Cigarettes Circa 1910... the 12X18 version.

The Colors are incredible.

Anyone ever notice that the T206 Johnny Evers With Bat, Chicago on Shirt has the EXACT same background as this Home Run poster?

Great Home Run poster -- I like the fact that you have it in an antique frame.

in remarkable mint condition. I recently found hundreds of scans from my last laptop. Earlier in this thread I posted the front of the catalog only. Here is all the goodies inside. Enjoy...

Pretty sweet considering it will be one hundred years old in just a few more months!

Hi Jacksons,
When you say "the 12x18 version", does that mean you know of another size that was produced?

FYI, I featured that Home Run Cigs poster on my Sports Antique of the Week May 31st-June 10th 2009. Below the link if you haven't seen it already.
