I actually bought these in April but just received them. It was a good month. While I haven't seen this Rose pinback before, I've seen similar style pins of the Expos from the same period. Welcome any info anyone may have about it. While not in great shape, the Pepsin pin is my first from the set. |

Rhys - those are some great letters. Agree I probably paid too much, but I was getting tired of getting out bid on every Pepsin pin. The main focus for my collection is Reds pins. I have about 600 Reds pinbacks and lapel style pins. Obviously the Pepsin ones are one of the toughest sets. That said, if you have something comparable for trade I'd be willing to talk. |

Dan B. was sold me this awesome photo. I hope to repay the favor with an equally awesome Nebraska baseball team someday. |

Oh heck Rhys. You did say that. Duh. I kind of missed it because it was in the same email in which you were talking about the two versions of the Bain photo where one has the NY Female Giants written in and the other didn't. I went right to that part and missed the part where you explained the Bennett background. |

Joanne, I watched that Bennett on eBay and would have fought Rhys for it had I not just purchased some outstanding letters (from Rhys) and a Tomlinson Bennett cabinet. It could date from anywhere in the 1880s (1881 - 1888) although the final year, 1888, was played with a striped uniform. |

I'll post here since there is no dedicated REA auction thread. I can now consider myself more than a card collector Best Regards, Joe Gonsowski |

That is a great Pete Rose button. Does anyone have any of the Minnesota Twins players available for sale or trade from this series? I am looking for either the small or large size in this series. |

One of the lowest-priced lots from the REA sale, I thought my consolation prize was pretty pathetic until I saw earlier today that the candy container sold for $1035 in 1999 (Halper/Sotheby's)... |

Can't get enough of these. The Yanks have the Gehrig kid, Ruth, Pennock, Hoyt and soon to be benched Wally Pipp while the crosstown Ginats have a young Hack Wilson, Frankie Frisch, Stengel, Hugh Jennings, McGraw and Bill Terry. Trainer Parker in a big league uniform. |

Picked this up with a BIN on ebay - the seller didn't know it was a baseball team and I only stumbled upon it accidentally as there was no mention of "Baseball" anywhere in the title or body of the auction. |

I picked up this beat up cabinet photo recently. It shows a KSNS Football Player who is holding an 1899 trophy football. KSNS was the Keystone State Normal School which later became Kutztown College then University. The neat part about the photo is that the player is ID'd on back as something Salajas of Havana Cuba. |

Very excited about this new addition. This coin-op penny arcade game has been on my want list for a while, and a nice example with a very decent price came up on ebay yesterday with a BIN. Luckily seller lived near by me so I saved on shipping and picked it up today. It really exceeded my expectations. It’s larger than I imagined and the sharp colors, 3-D graphics, wooden case and metal lever and coin mechanism are pretty sharp. It has really nice details – even the ping pong balls have stitches painted on them to resemble baseballs. 22”H x 16”W x 6”D. |

Terrific pickup, Joe! I have admired that particular game for a long time as well (ever since I saw one at Cooperstown). Yours is a beauty... very rare to find them that nice! And what a bonus, to find it locally and avoid shipping! |

Thanks Mark and Mike. It is kind of fun and easy to play. I put in my penny and gave it a whirl. You have to hit the handle pretty hard to get the ball to fly around fast enough to hit a homer – the first couple times I was too tentative and “walked” for fear of breaking the thing. It is built very sturdy though. I wouldn’t play it too much as the balls could wear away at the painted graphics on the inside of the outer glass. |
