Hi Matt...
The two on the ends came from Lelands about 4-5 years ago. They are quite early, and I know nothing about them or their origin. Have never seen another pair.
The two in the middle are from noted Sculptor, Jack Lambert. Carlton Hendricks has written about these on his website. They are circa 1920s-30s, and the one that resembles Lou Gehrig is sometimes seen atop a Spalding Base (in the form of a Trophy).
Lastly, the tiny one is something I found on eBay. Though very small, it has great detail, and appears to be circa 1880s (based on the uniform). I have no idea of its origin, but it sure fit well in that little gap on the shelf!
