September Pickups Thread
Since one hasn't started up yet, I thought I would get a "pickups" thread going...
Here is a Joe Jackson Mini Decal Bat, which was incorrectly touted as a Ty Cobb Bat on Ebay. Also a Turn of the Century Austrian Plate, which will match a large Pitcher I have from the same series. Many thanks to Mike H for making me aware of this one! Both pieces (surprisingly) came from ebay at "recession era" prices.... |

Wow...nice stuff Mark, I missed this thread when you started it.
Nothing big here, just a rppc of a night game in the Nebraska State League from the 1950s. The team that played here was affiliated with the New York Yankees. This is the first time I've seen this postcard though so I think it is rather uncommon.

Rob...
Hate to be "premature" with the congtats (and certainly don't want to jinx anything) but IF that thing arrives as it should, that's a magnificent pickup. Very nice price, too... since these come along maybe once every 4 years, you did amazingly well... what a beauty! Could there possibly be any Indians Pennants remaining on your wantlist? |

That was the last one on the want list. |

John,
The team was actually named for Napoleon Lajoie. |

This is one of those things I've wanted for quite a while but have held off as these are usually found in quite poor condition. This one is far from mint but about as good as I've seen. Given how these were used I figure there probably are not many floating around in really nice shape so I was happy with this one.

Picked up a couple exhibition programs at Wichita of the Cards vs White Sox and the Red Sox vs the Cubs. Also picked up a football which is kind of baseball related.

A Net54 Success Story!
A week or so ago, "thekingofclout" started a threat about Ohio baseball items. An early responder was "jantz", who posted a 1920 photo of an Indians player and he noted the player's black Ray Chapman memorial armband.
At a paper collectibles show yesterday, I spotted a stack of 17 unidentified vintage baseball snapshots on a dealer's table. He didn't know anything about them, but the Indians player in the top photo was wearing one of those black armbands! The other photos included shots of fans entering the ballpark, stadium views and field-level shots of several ballplayers and the opponent's dugout. Needless to say, I purchased the stack. And now, as Paul Harvey would say, "the rest of the story"...I knew as soon as I saw the images of the portly manager of the Indians opponent but the truth was confirmed when I resized a shot of the scoreboard. The visiting team was Brooklyn. The snapshots are images of the 1920 World Series! Thanks to my net54 comrades in helping make this wonderful acquisition! |

Excellent score Rick, how about a few scans of the photos? My favorite baseball photos are fan taken snapshots.

Nice find! Little surprises like that at a show can really make collecting fun. Do any of the photos show any other recognizable players? Jantz |

I'll start a new thread and see if members can help with the IDs. I'm pretty confident about Wilbert Robinson and Tris Speaker but would appreciate the confirmation of others.

Close's Candy Tin
I found this Close's Candy Tin while traveling the back roads of New Hampshire yesterday. I'm sure a E94 collector might have some interest in trading for it. The tin is approximately 8 1/4" tall with a 5 1/4" diameter.

Picked up a cool colorized 8x10 photo of Husker slugger Ed Kotab...on the reverse is a cutout from the Lincoln newspaper of a drawing of the same photo.

Dan, that's a great photo. Colorized photos from that era must be fairly rare. I wonder if they made them for the whole team?

I sure haven't seen very many colorized photos from that era. I think this must have originated from Kotab's estate at some point (found it on ebay from a Kansas seller)..About 6 months ago I lost out on a charm from his conference champion team.
