Missed Connections: Whoever bought the Tip Top Phillippe from Stan at Strongsville!!

[dbussell12]

I was about to purchase from him this same weekend. If you are at all amenable to potentially letting me buy it from you, I'd of course pay well; throw in a sweetener like a type 1 or a poster or a Deadball era magazine.

Its for an academic essay I'm writing on early Industrial America! the Phillippe in particular is a crucial connecting point for me as a historian.

Thank you kindly if you see this!

My best regards,
David

Out of curiosity, do you have a sentence or two you could share on this?

i'll share a substack link when its done if you're interested! i'm a media and cultural theorist + historian with current emphasis on american industrialization; the movement from regional + localization of industry to globalization + its stakes and trajectories. early regional sets like tip top speak to this very clearly in my opinion! its a different vision of communality + the stakes of a city's unity in manufacturing and sport

Sure. It'll be interesting to see what you pull together.

If you were about to purchase it, why didn't you? Sounds like you had first shot at it and passed on the opportunity!
