Mike, that's an awesome piece!! Can you give us some background on it such as date, composition etc? It's very neat to see the imprint of the American National Game print!

I sold this one a couple of years ago - belonged to Ray Morehart ('27 Yanks) when he was at Austin College.

Bob Feller and Eddie Smith photo 1990
I wanted to thank net54 good guy member Bruce Garland for sending me a neat candid photo that was taken in 1990 of pitchers Bob Feller and Eddie Smith. The two of them were at a show in NJ which paired Feller and opposing starting pitcher in his historic Opening Day no-hitter in 1940 (50th anniversary year of the OD no-no).
Bruce and friends were at the show to help NJ resident Eddie Smith (nickname Gorby). "Gorby" Smith had an interesting career from 1936-1947 (interrupted for 2 years during WWII). In addition to being the LP to Feller's opening day no-hitter, he also gave up the very first hit in Joe DiMaggio's 56 game hitting streak in 1941 as well as being the winning pitcher in the 1941 All Star game. Gorby was known as a Yankees killer and amazingly got nearly 2/3 of his ML victories at the hand of the Bronx Bombers. A very nice gesture indeed from Bruce! I'm happy to add it to my advanced no-hitter collection.

Very excited to add this University of Denver pennant from the 1920s. I am a student here and will be having my third meeting with the Chancellor to obtain a football program that we haven't had since 1964. It is a shame that it was shut down as we played in the first intercollegiate game west of the Mississippi river in 1885 against Colorado College.
Thank you Keith! from antiquesportsshop.com [IMG]  [/IMG]

This is a Tommy Gibbons ad from a vaudeville tour. It is handmade and one of a kind. I'm guessing it was a point of sale poster.

I'm glad you like it George
 These are believed to date from the 1930s. They were made in Italy and this example was sold via Comoy's of London who were well known pipe makers and tobacco distributors (their label is on the bottom) dating back to the 1880s. It's metal with porcelain lining and stands 8" tall. The baseball scene is well executed and only appears on one side. The figural baseball on the lid is a wonderful design feature that is sometimes missing.
