I picked this up in, of all places, Niagara Falls, on the Canadian side. It is a tie with pictures of Kalamazoo Bats, Yum Yums, Old Judges (regular and cabinets), and Mayos. I thought you folks might get a kick out of it.

You would think that if you got it at Niagara Falls it would have pictures of Ed Delahanty all over it. Kinda cool though!

If I think that is cool, does that make me a complete baseball card geek? Just asking?

Only if you would wear matching socks.

Abbott and Costello also did a great Niagara Falls, with Lou of course getting the brunt of it.

I never saw the Stooges do it. Does anybody know what movie that's from?

I would wear it if it came with matching shoes and baseball cap.

The Stooges short is "Gents Without Cents" (1944)

It's funny, whenever I hear Niagra Falls I always hear the Stooges play in my head.. 'Step by Step, inch by inch...'

I never thought this idiocy of mine was shared by others...  I am not alone!

Paul,

Are you going to try to soak all the cards off?

Heck with the matching socks...where are the matching boxers?

I completely forgot about the Delahanty connection. I don't think he is anywhere on the tie, but I'll have to double check when I get home.

I don't think I'll soak this one. I haven't heard of anyone having success soaking silks.

Will GAI grade the tie?
Seriously-- Where did you get it and where do I call to get mine?

Judson,

I got the tie in a store in Niagara Falls, Canada. It was in the center of the tourist area, very close to the Hershey Chocolate store, on Falls Avenue. There are a bunch of small shops there, all connected together indoors. This store was called simply "the $15 store." They had a lot of similarly themed ties there, picturing old cars, old manuscripts, etc. But this was the only one with baseball cards. I assume they can order more, but they didn't have anymore on hand.

I'd like to order one online if the price is right. Extra Long, as I'm a tall guy. Is this a tall order?
