Went to the auction of a Nebraska football "booster of substance" today. Game used jerseys and team signed footballs! (Lawrence Phillips including his locker room placard from the 1995 National Title game, Broderick Thomas, Johnny Mitchell, and Steve Taylor shown) got a couple of other jerseys and lots of signed stuff too.

A scorecard for a February 20, 1927 California Winter League contest at the integrated ball grounds of White Sox Park in Los Angeles in which the Philadelphia Royal Giants, an African American team with six Negro League Hall of Famers -- Turkey Stearnes, Bullet Rogan, Willie Wells, Andy Cooper, Biz Mackey, Bill Foster -- beat Hall of Famer Kiki Cuyler and his Shell Oil team by a score of 3-1. See the website below for more Negro League material.

I got this billhead in the mail Friday from a very nice Net54 member who sent it out of the blue to me. (Thanks Dave!) It goes well with the other Lawlor's stuff I've been collecting over the years.

Nice haul Dan. Used to root for Nebraska during Osborne's years. Glad he got himself a couple if championships.
