JULY pickups

Cool watch, I've never seen one.

I just made a trade with another collector and got these two tickets stubs.

First is Reggie Jackson's first career home run. This is the first time I've ever even seen one of these stubs.

Second is Mike Schmidt's 4 home run game in Wrigley Field. I collect 4 Home Run games and still need four more for the modern era players.

I might have overpaid but I couldn't resist this lot. Includes the supposed "merkle play" photo though Im sure its actually just a photo of the cubs and giants at homeplate from another game. Also has the original photo for a turkey red

Most of what you have posted are too small to see very well, but it appears that nearly all include the Cubs in unique to 1909 road uniforms at the Polo Grounds in it's 1909 state of contruction. However, in your array of really small images, 2 down and 3 to the right is a famous photo of a pre-game argument before the Merkle game replay on 10-8-1908.

Yeah I'm using the scan that the seller had. When I get them in hand I'll post better photos. Those 1909 cubs jerseys are my favorite all-time jerseys. Yeah that seems more likely to be the game. Pretty awesome to have a photo from it )

I'm also wondering if a couple of the action shots are from that game. I'll be able to tell better when I get them in hand
