Phil,
It looks like you found the photo match to my vintage signed Nolan Ryan Jacksonville Suns newspaper cut.
Nice!!

Thanks, Scott. I thought that image in your collection looked familiar, nice auto as well.

Some Tom Seaver stuff from 1967 Mets publications for your amusement... first, a few scans from a 1967 Mets program (sold and scored during the 6/14/67 game)...

Page 15 - profile of Tom Seaver...




Page 25 - "Meeting The Fans" including a photo of "Rookie Tom Seaver signing autographs before recent game"...




Page 30 - can you find the Tom Seaver tie-in on this page? Don't worry if you can't, all will be revealed in due time...




And now, from the 1967 Mets yearbook, Tom Seaver's bio...




Tom Seaver making a guest appearance on Bill Denehy's page, along with Don Shaw, as spearheaders of the 1967 youth movement...



Did you guess that Bill Denehy was the Seaver tie-in from page 30 of the '67 Mets program? But Seaver's appearance on Denehy's page was not the only place where the two appeared together... chew on that for a few minutes, while we present a final, non-"Franchise" delicacy from the 1967 Mets yearbook...

Page 9 - Wes Westrum's bio, including a photo of the manager with "prodigy" Nolan Ryan...




And for those of you who may not have figured out the other Seaver-Denehy connection, Bill Denehy was "the other guy" on Tom Seaver's 1967 Topps rookie card...

My meager contribution.... I have some vintage pennants, but nothing rare or special enough to show here.

She's got nice legs .
I have the Mr Met but did not know there was a female version.
Thanks for that pic.

Yeah... she's pretty hot

Keep an eye out on ebay... she tends to turn up maybe twice a year (either with or without Mr. Met). Also, Inside the Park Collectibles seems to get these about once a year. VERY tough to find her with the original Pennant (it is usually missing or a repro).

Here are a bunch from '69, including a few I actually got within the past week. The one blue pennant is really strange ... originally it was made to say Eastern Division Champs but apparantly the pennant company wanted to better utilize what was leftover after the series and painted over it with what looks like part of an orange crown. It is really heavy paint, clearly done at the factory.

You have to read Street & Smiths-and other guides as well- about this guy George Seaver in the Mets farm system.

In 2012 we are celebrating 150 years of Mets baseball. According to this T-shirt, officially licensed by Major League Baseball and sold by the official online shop of the New York Mets...



...the Mets were "Established 1862."

I am sure that this is the first of many embarrassing moments this season. It is going to be a long one.

I had thought they were established much earlier...there's that song written in 1814 that begins "Oh Shea can you see..."
