I recently picked up a few items from Pirate Bob Moose’s estate. They include his 1971 Pirates team travel Blazer with matching tie, and a tankard commemorating the 1971 Pirates World Series Championship. Each member of the team was given a tankard. The wire photo shows Moose (left) and Bruce Kison (right) leaving Memorial Stadium shortly after game seven. In the background of the photo is Bob Prince who had chartered a helicopter to deliver Kison to his wedding which was scheduled that same afternoon. Moose served as the best man. Although it is difficult to see, if you look closely at Kison’s blazer it appears to be similar to the one I purchased. Moose is carrying his own Blazer. Obviously I cannot be certain that it is the same jacket. However, it may not be a strecth to assume so. Bob Moose died tragically on October 9, 1976 in a car accident. He was traveling to a party being held at Bill Mazeroski’s house to celebrate his 29th Birthday.

This is pre-October for me also, it's 9x14 and I haven't been able to locate a scanner big enough to scan, so please excuse the watermark. See if you can pick out the 15 yr old future member of the 3000 hit club and future Hall of Famer.

That's a good one, as long as you're only scanning flat items. Best value I've found for oversized items. My only complaint is that if you are scanning something with "depth" to it (including anything in a hard slab), it doesn't focus well. As long as your photo is flat on the glass though, it works well. |

While I would agree that the barrel appears to be a match, the handle shows a much different amount of pine tar applied. The in-use photo shows minimal pine tar, wheras your bat has what I would call extensive application of pine tar. I would tend to attribute this this to Montero using this bat over an extended period of time before he cracked it. He might have even hit more homers with it than you think, given its use. Food for thought.... Last edited by Scott Garner; 10-28-2012 at 05:38 AM. |

I understand what you mean by the pinetar, but I think it's just the photo. Because if you look closely at the handle in the game photo you can see that it's built up more then it looks. Included a better photo of the same at bat. But I think Montero may have used the bat on and off from mid April till he broke it on May 31st. Also photo matched it to several Singles and Doubles and maybe a third homerun but need to find better photos. |

I brought it to Ben's attention and he said "I've seen that image before... the Lou Gehrig Comic Book!" And sure enough, a quick search on ebay confirmed it. Well, I've sold and traded most of my companion pieces but something tells me I may need to make an exception here. Thanks Ben. You doubled the value of my photo! ![]() Here's my photo and Ben's... 1938gehrig.jpg[bens-gehrig.jpg Last edited by thekingofclout; 10-20-2012 at 09:40 AM. |

I have always wanted an example of this 1949 poster. It features the 1948 Tribe and 11 members of the Baseball Hall of Fame. I picked this one up fairly cheaply due to a few condition issues. They really don't detract from the piece and will be covered when the poster is matted and framed.
