Signed Nick Daviscourt ca. 1925 portrait. Born in Ellensburg, Nicholas de Wiscourt 1889 he wrestled for the Heavyweight title twice, first in 1921 v. Ed Strangler Lewis, and again in 1935 v. Jim Browning. Both bouts he lost.
A thug in the ring and on local baseball diamonds he played semi-pro ball for Ellensburg, 1906-14. Never thought I'd add this to my local sports collection.

I have a ton of items that are probably unique, but this is one of my favorites. It's a postcard written by the man pictured on the front (Dan Tobey) to Louis "Dutch" Wagner, Honus Wagner's brother trying to entice him to join the Nebraska Indians.

Here's another cool one. This is an original Type 1 photo of the moment Joe DiMaggio extended his hitting streak to 56 games:
