Thanks and a tip of the McDonald hat to Anthony N. for these swell A&G's.

Picked up these odd circa 1920's Japanese menkos. What is a menko, you may ask? Beats me but here is a reference that might shed some light on these "battle-scarred gaming pieces" (check it out if only for the Fatty Arbuckle menko): http://www.dking-gallery.com/menko/


(Death on the Basepath)

Don't think I posted these yet. Picked up a couple of Buchner Gold Coins as type cards.


Last but not least is the Boston American postcard of Jake Stahl which Adam B. offered up for auction recently. Scan is at BST Auction thread: http://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=113178
