Holy Cow Droppings!
Posted By: Josh Siegel
Does anyone live in the Baltimore area? I just stumbled across an auction in Glen Burnie, MD that features the estate of Josh Johnson. Here is the link. I hope someone lives in the general area |

Holy Cow Droppings!

There doesn't look to be a single thing that looks to be an original item used in a negro league game. The original period photos are not baseball related...some of it is interesting, but I'm wondering if some of the "good" items were held back or are being sold elsewhere. |

I'm thinking of making the trip south from New York to bid on the "Josh Johnson Personal Marble Collection." |

I saw that auction too, and thought there might be some gold mines, but after looking at the list and photos, it is almost all new and reproduction stuff. Very few vintage items. My guess the family is probably keeping anything of true vintage importance. |

the auction is close to my work so i stopped by afterward to see the items in person. the paper lots were mostly newspaper articles and photocopies. none of the original photos contained any baseball content- the baseball photos were all recent copies. most of the autographs were bleeding heavily and the multi-signed balls were facsimile sigs. that's the ugly part. the good part is that there a couple of nice football and basketball photographs, a beautiful vintage football sweater and some nice awards and trophies presented by a few colleges and mlb teams. i also some northern league and mid-west league baseballs. |

I ended up winning three items from the sale. The photograph is from the 1939 Cheyney State Teacher's College football team. The unidentified person is obviously Josh Johnson. The ribbon and medal were given to him from the Braves. |
