August Pickups

[batsballsbases]

A nice pickup for me is this pin on the left, it complements the pin on the right. Very hard to find I believe it was for the 1907 or 1908 world series. As Hughie Jennings was the manager and this was his battle cry!

Wow once again a fast summer. Couple minor additions to the collection. 1`st being a St Mary`s Industrial School band postcard. Have 4 now but really like this one because it`s the 1`st with a pre printed note from the school`s administration on the back. The second another one of my collecting interests, type 1 photo related to the 1919 Black Sox(Kerr/McMullin/Lynn) taken just a week before the famous world series.

picked this up at National Show and thought the best way to protect and display it is to frame it
April 14, 1921 Mid Week Publication with Ruth Cover

My recent pickups.
The first 4 are from the National.
1) Plaque that hung in the Ted Williams museum until it closed.
2) Type 1 of the all star team from the 1931 trip to Japan.
3) 1937 photo. I think it could be a type 1, but is most likely a type 2. I had a few experienced photo people look at it and they were not sure.
4)Modern Plate.

5)1942 magazine
6) May 9, 1938 type 1 photo from the recent Henry Yee auctions.
7) 1932 WS with Cuyler at first base
8) Lou being tagged out at second by Bill Jurges.

I just picked up two Holy Grails from my want list in one week. The first is a 1952 game used St. Louis Browns cap — likely worn by Jim Delsing — and the second is a 1952-53 Browns postcard signed by Satchel. Go Brownies!

Al, I was very much tempted by that orange Tigers pin when I saw it listed recently. It's a real beauty. Hughie Jennings is one of my favorites — just in case you've never seen it, here's actual footage of him doing his famous dance in the third base box. It's 43 seconds in ...

Thanks Chris! I was a little surprised it didnt go higher! (But it would have cost somebody) Nice to see you did a deal with Scott G. I have the Blackwell and if I did have another it would have gone to Scott... Glad he got one! And remember Im still in the market for the others we talked about!

I wonder if Dehsing wore that hat when he pinch ran for Eddie Gaedel? Nice.

[Chris Counts]

I would love for this cap to be the one Delsing wore when he ran for Gaedel, but that happened in 1951, and this style cap was only worn in '52 and '53.

Whenever the cap was worn, it is immensely cool to have a real life Browns cap.

My latest photo a Don Wingfield from 52/53 range. What I love most is the stamp on the back of a collector not to far from me.
