Todays Card Show Report (2 of 2) (Fighting Phillies)
So this dealer was helping an estate sell off a Phillies collection. And there was some cool stuff, but I know nothing about it. One of my fellow OBC trading buddies (Josh) is a Phillies collector, and he knows his stuff. Josh and I have been swapping cards since 1991!
PROBLEM it's 9AM in Florida, and 6AM out west where Josh lives LOL! I bought a few of the items, and then Josh called me. He confirmed the stuff was legit, so I went back inside and bought most of what remained. Many of the items were from Philadelphia newspapers, and the total price paid $85. First up, three cool decals. Do kids even know what decals are anymore? Dated Sept 29, 1950 and measures 12X19. 8X10 cut from a newspaper and very fragile. "Exclusive Bulletin Sports Pin-Up". 19 total with Robin Roberts and Richie Ashburn. Cool Team picture with some back damage from being removed from scrapbook I guess. Another team photo this one is in better shape. Large 12.5 X 19 Philadelphia Inquirer 1950 World Series insert 15 pages has small individual pictures of both the Phillies and Yankees hey there's Joe DiMaggio! Undated Spring Training scorecard scored Phils vs Pirates Bowa Schmidt Luzinski etc etc Richie Ashburn auto on the back cover Matchbook with Phillies schedule inside 1950 Inquirer Fightin' Phillies 9 different in fine condition with these two included Another Inquirer 30 page insert with cool photos of the As and Fighting' Phillies All twelve pictures are here Last item I really like the seating chart on the back These are boxed up and headed out west Josh, and know you will give them a good home!
