Brooks Robinson and the Baltimore Orioles

[Chstrite]

Day 141 – 22 May 2024
Thought I would show some bobbleheads. My favorite is the 3-foot Cooperstown Collection Brooks Robinson. Certainly, this one has been shown before. Bringing this one home was quite the treat. I put it in a car seat. My wife thought I lost my mind. It is by far my favorite.

She’s very observant 😎

I’ve had a couple opportunities to pick up the 3’ Brooksie over the years, but passed each time. While I really like the bobblehead and it makes for a very nice display piece, but the reason I never picked one up is that “I know” I’d ultimately break the thing…

By the way as I’ve said before you have a great looking setup in your O’s room.

Thank you, Mark!

Day 142 – 23 May 2024
For the next few days, I will show you some of my Vintage Baltimore Oriole Bobbleheads. The mini bobble heads from 1961 are very tough to find. Here, I am showing you my 1961 boy face bobblehead. This one has the ball. I still need the boy face with a bat. These are very expensive and hard to find. The two mini bird face bobbleheads (with bat and ball) are hard to find and a bit expensive but not like the boy face, which are impossible to find. These are all three in great shape and display very nice.

Very nice minis! I’ve only seen two examples of the boy Nodder with the ball over the years so very scarce. Your example looks to be in very nice condition. Thanks for sharing these great items…

Hi, Mark. I need the information be with the bat but probably too expensive. Thanks

Day 143 – 24 May 2024
Another rare Baltimore Oriole Bobblehead are the two appearing below. These African American green base bobbleheads are similar but have some differences. I believe they are from 1962. The bird on the hat, ball on top of the hat, the eyes are oriented differently, different size lips and hat bill is oriented differently. These two are not so hard to find but they will cost you.

Charlie,

Unsure what you are asking.
