Three words: Yelberton Abraham Tittle. Everyone else is considered a common although current NFLer Rex Grossman's dad is one of the players.

Also very rare are any card that have a large "E" in the box on the back. If you collected cards that spelled S-I-L-B-E-R-S you could redeem them for a prize at the bakery. The bakery greatly restricted letter "E" cards so not too many people would win.

Wow Dan!

Absolutely beautiful stuff on your web page!

I could look through that all day long!

From the Mayo cards to the Vintage Photos! Its like going back in a time Machine!

I was especially taken by the colorful art on many of the items. Just beautiful stuff Man.


A couple of favorites I'll note were the Rose Bowl Tickets. They were absolutely gorgeous pieces! The early to mid seventies were my favorites. The color and the graphics are just eye popping!


I would encourage everybody here to take a look at the items Dan has amassed in his collection. Beautiful pieces of history they are!

I gotta go now. I have to go back and take a closer look at some of these splendid items.

Thanks for Sharing Dan!

Thanks everyone!

I am quite fond of the Flikr site for ease of uploading and organizing items and highly encourage folks to use it. I was using photobucket for this purpose and found that it is only good for inserting links in to web forums, not for displaying.

If anyone comes across unique Ohio State items, please let me know.

I am searching for the schedule that is in my avatar, OSU vs UM tickets, 1921 Rose Bowl ticket, any OSU pre-1925 tickets, and Chic Harley stuff.

The schedule is a 1924:
