Really like that second one Leon!

Yep that second one is so very cool. Love the stands on the 3rd base line.

Look at that backstop! You could score from 2B if the ball got by the catcher.

1908 St. Louis Browns Tri-Fold with Waddell & Wallace. The tail of the "Y" in Whiskey is pointing straight to Waddell. I like the peacoats they're all wearing.

Someone has one with Hal Chase. Please post if possible. Thanks.

A recent pick up....multiple fields. approx 11" x 3 1/2"

Geez, I'd hate to be the left fielder for the team playing on the first field.

What about the trees behind 2nd base on the third field? How do you even play on that field?

No worries, you just have to say what it is if the ball hits the tree, before the game starts. Not a problem.

I knew this one would show up! This is my favorite because I live between the two towns represented.

Another double fold....Oak Bluffs, MA.

[chalupacollects]

Leon,

That park is still in Oak Bluffs and some of the buildings are also!

Leon, interesting postcard...I noticed the batter was wearing a Yale uniform so I did a little research and it's possible that the batter is this man:

Here's an article where the family believes it to be him:

Thanks Dan. I saw the Yale team but didn't do any additional research. Pretty cool...

Here is a day at the game...

This one is from boxing HOFer Mickey Walker's saloon




Not baseball but it is a pretty nice gimmick anyway.

A few more recent pick ups. Incidentally both are canceled.
