January Pickups
Figured I would start off the New Year pickup thread. Happy New Years to all the board members.
First I picked up these 2 Eagles pennants that I hadn't seen before coming across them recently. The first one is a green version, that I believe dates to the mid 1940's. The second, is a blue pennant produced by the Ad Flag company of Chicago. I believe the quarterback artistically rendered on the pennant is patterned after the NFL star of the early 40s Sid Luckman (he never played for the Eagles obviously). With the blue color of this pennant, I believe this pennant dates to around 1940-41. The next 2 items, my dad picked up recently, and he was curious if we could get some help here with dating them. The first item is a Reach bat with lathe marks that is a smaller bat measuring about 25 inches long. The bat is marked with AJ Reach Co - 87. The second item is a small baseball cap with no makers mark, with Play Ball and crossed bats on front. Any idea of the age of these 2? Last edited by vintagesportflips; 01-01-2010 at 08:11 PM. |

Finally I have time to show some recent pickups.
First is a c.1960 professional model Pittsburgh Pirates jersey Next a 1939 Reds/Yanks World Series ashtray/dish thingy Next a ceramic Brooklyn Bum figure - looks like a repainted Stanford Pottery Brooklyn Bum but its not a bank??? And lastly a pair of really cool Cardinals bookends. I'm guessing 1950s-60s. |

New pickups
Picked up these two neat (at least I think so) pieces of Yale emphemera with a Walter Camp Connection. They are programs for 1879 and 1880 intramural athletic contests which include many track races, football kicking contests, hammer throwing, bicycle racing, baseball throwing, tug of war, etc. Walter Camp is listed as one of the competitors in both programs, with the running high jump in 1879, and the Hurdle Race in 1880. He is not listed as a competitor in the Football kick though. These have some paper residue on them (assuming from scrapbook removal, but are in otherwise great shape, and are made of a thicker stock paper.

Voit
19" wide x 11" tall x 6 1/2" deep Picked this up a week ago at the Glendale Show...plus picked up some non sport stuff that you can read about here for the long version. It's motorized and it has a stem that sticks out the top that turns to display a ball...so now I'm looking for a vintage Voit basketball...though I'm tempted to stick something on there really old, though wouldn't match the display I also picked up another pretty good piece earlier this month...but it's related to the Bailey plaque, so may post it there.

Just picked up this Dr. Jayne's Expectorant Baseball Folder circa 1910.
The shortstop bottom right looks like Wagner to me. |

This is the reason I love to collect companion pieces...
After spending some time sifting through a thousand or so auctions on ebay, I came across this...
1936dimaggioDEBUT.jpg and I bought this last year, a stub from DiMaggio's Major League Debut... dimaggiodebut2.jpgdimaggiodebut3.jpg this is the first photo of any TYPE from his debut that I've ever seen. Since he started off the year on the DL for a few weeks, no one knew when he was going to start playing, which is why anything from this game is extremely scarce. Obviously, I'm happy as a pig in SH*T over this one. Regards, Jimmy Last edited by thekingofclout; 01-25-2010 at 05:20 AM. |
