Boston Braves no-hit pitchers
Here are some items related to two pitchers that threw no-hitters for the Boston Braves:
- Jim Tobin ticket and snapshots from his no-hitter on April 27, 1944. I recently posted this, but it fits this thread. I also have added a Burke PC of Tobin while he was a member of the Boston Braves.
- Verne Bickford no-hitter tickets (two different variations) from August 11, 1950 and his 1952 Bowman rookie card. I also have a 1949 snapshot of Bickford while he was playing for a northern CA affiliate of the Braves in 1949 prior to his call up to the bigs. There is a terrific signed magazine cut as well as a vintage fountain pen signed GPC of Bickford. BTW, both Jim Tobin and Verne Bickford's signatures are very challenging to find as they had earlier death dates.
