Please know I've posted 444 photos of the 2011 National Sports Collectors Convention on my site SportsAntiques.com, link above. Pickings were a little slim this year, although I still did pretty good...picked up five items...photos of two below...The Ratch Peerless sign is reverse glass printed...First reverse glass sports related sign I've ever seen....the flat top football helmet had me!...the basketball trophy is a Spalding trophy made by Dieges and Clust..has the Spalding mark front and center. -Carlton 14 1/2" wide x 12 1/2" tall 16" tall

Great pickups Carlton, That sign has an amazing look, and the trophy is great too! Thanks for posting photos. I'm already angry at myself for not getting out there, as in the first group of photos, I saw something I likely would have bought. By chance do you know who the dealer was in the first group of photos you putup (the photos with Corey Leiby in the booth) - the booth had a silver basketball trophy in the case (possibly the one you bought). Is that Bushings booth?

There were very few trophies this year...very few good advertsiing signs....It was tough this year but I did good...and Ryan Sims found a lot of stuff...He bought a Harvard vs Exeter track broadside I ended up buying off him...I went over to his hotel room to pick it up and you should have seen the haul he made...I mean like 20 or so items....good uniforms and equipment posters...I can't beleive I sat there talking to him and forgt to take a photo of it all spread over his sofa...Below Ryan with the Harvard Exeter he sold me. It's an interesting poster...Exeter, a prep school...competing with Harvard a college...I'm assuming it was Harvard's freshman team...I've only had time to do some cursory research but I was able to pull up an Exeter sports history page on the internet that supplied a little info... http://www.exeter.edu/documents/Exet...portsPages.pdf If it was the Harvard freshman team, who would be the class of 1916...I guess that would make the poster from 1913...I think....and the page in the link above references a Coach George Conners below who apparently had a heck of a track team 1915 Coach George Connors and his dominant Exeter track team win a sixth straight New England Interscholastic title. I also found this interesting clipping from the New York Times 1909 that references the Plimpton grounds mentioned on the poster Wish I had the time to research more By the way....plug for me....if anyone gets a braodside like this one for sale please contact me...for most any athletic sport...especially 19th century college ones....baseball, football, rowing, lacrosse, etc.
