Any new treasures? This is my new favorite pennant (from my collection at least). The milky portion of the image is from schmutz on the lens...darn kids. |

That's a nice one Mike...and one I don't think I've seen before. How many different prewar Tigers pennants does that make for you now? |

There aren't a lot of things that I would say I'm an "authority" on, but I've seen a heck of a lot of different Cleveland Indians pennants over the years. I'd never seen this one before this week, so I was thrilled to pick it up on eBay. Not a great photo; it's the one that was in the listing. |

That makes 4 maybe 5 Dan. Not sure of the date of a couple. They have early characteristics, but who knows for sure unless you see a photo of one that is dated. I am LOVING pennants right now and the Tigers seem to have had a wider variety than most teams. I would say Cleveland is up there options available as well. Does anyone know a collector who is an "authority" on pennants? D. Bushing seems to know almost every niche of memorabilia and has written short articles in MEERS about pennants. I would give my right arm to see the personal collections of some of the premier pennant collectors. |

I just received what may be the single highlight of my collection (and a piece that I've been looking for since I first saw it on the Incurable Collector segment on Bill Mastro way back in 2001) from the recent Sotheby's auction. I'm having a custom shelf built to display it. |

My wife would kill me if I had a "busy month" like that Aaron. That trophy is awesome...and the pinback ain't too shabby either. |

Hi Clint,I had never seen it before either. It was in an REA (or Mastro) auction last year buried in along with 100 or so other premiums. I knew there was a large premium of WaJo without his shirt and the byline talking about his expensive arm, but I never knew about this one. SO I had to pay dearly to get this premium. But it was worth it. Some of the other large premiums have a numbering system (1 - 7) on the left hand side. I just picked up Matty, Wagner and one other like this. Interesting, the Matty is completely different pose from the other large type Matty I have, while the Wagner is the same pose (but different first name listed) as the non-numbered Wagner. When i get some time, I should post the non-numbered and numbered large type premiums. The Federal League large type premiums are also extremely hard to find. Great stuff though! |

Aaron, I have admired that trophy for years. It's changed hands a couple times as you noted. It is stunning. |

Jim, would love to see some more of those premiums if you get a chance. That White Sox one is pretty nice as well. |

But I am attempting to post my first scan & had a question. Does anyone know if this Joe Jackson mini decal bat had the black tape on the handle when it was new? Thanks in advance for any help/info you can lend. Jeremy |

I didn't know you could make a scan that small. As for your question I don't believe I've ever seen a mini decal bat with tape on it. |

I didn't know it could be done either. I'm struggling with this posting scans thing. Back to the drawing board! |

I've seen a few mini bats with tape on them. They have all been Joe Jackson bats. There was a cork grip mini bat of Babe Ruth sold a few months ago also. |

That leads me to believe that the bat did, in fact, come with the tape on the handle when it was made. I was thinking that I saw a Jackson bat auctioned by Lelands some time ago that had the tape. |
