May Pickups

It's been a while but back in the hunt again! Feels great to be able to root out some new (vintage) items!

Picked up a nice team basketball photo with printed mount - 1957/58 Canadian Champs - Vancouver Eilers (12.5 x 10.5 including mount) and a unique 4.5 inch bass relief, metal, baseball "plaque" that the seller suggested was from Nazi Germany. Can anyone place this?

I have no idea, Chris, on the baseball medal, but I wouldn't expect the Third Reich would be using precious metal resources at that time making items celebrating America's past time, when they were utilizing all available metals in making war machinery and tanks, but possibly.
