Your Best Pickup of 2012

[jthorst75]

My most recent pickup is my best pickup this year. (Please refrain from lipsticking this one Scott) It is a Horner photo of Ed Reulbach and
was used on several of his cards like Colgan's Chips, T204 Ramly and Fan Craze to name a few. The reverse has the Horner-Jordan stamp.

This pick up was the highlight of 2012 for me.

Nice pickups everyone!

I don't buy much memorabilia, so my choice was easy.

Sorry, but I don't know how to take an auction lot pic and make it appear in a Net 54 thread.
Happy collecting to all in 2013,
Val

without spaces to get:



The image will stay up in Net54 as long as it remains in its original location. It will also appear the same size here as it did in its original location.

Boy, congrats to all of you. Those are some terrific pickups! This is one of my favorite threads of the year.

I literally picked up these two items last week, yet they certainly are my favorites of 2012. They came directly from the 1974 California Angels ballboy Paul Hirsch. Perfect provenance makes these two items my favorites. They originated from arguably one of Nolan's best years-1974. In 1974 Nolan struck out 19 batters 3 times, threw a 1-hitter, his third career no-hitter and fanned 367 batters for the season. Quite a year!

1) The game ball is from Nolan's 15th K in his AL record breaking 19th K game (9 innings) on August 12, 1974 at Anaheim. He passed Bob Feller who previously had struck out 18 in 1938.

2) Nolan's 1974 Angels locker tag from the Angel's clubhouse.
Accompanying photo is of Nolan w/ ballboy Paul Hirsch in the Angels clubhouse in 1974. If you look carefully you can see other locker tags above the lockers in the background which helps provide a photo match...

New to the Forum and Net54 but enjoying it immensely. My aunt was a big
Brooklyn Dodger Fan and I inherited some of her keepsakes when she passed.
Thought I share some with you. Comments welcome, particularly about the
Home Coming 1951 Diner which she attended and had some of the players sign the program.

Hope they came through.

Thanks,
