Would that be Chuck Tomasco? Or a different T? In either case, no - Paul Kutch.

If you didn't get a 1960 bat fan yet, I ran into an old friend at the national that had one for sale - PM me if you want his contact info.

Yeah, I was talking about Chuck Tomasco.

I still need the bat fan. I would appreciate you sending me his contact info. Do you remember if it was complete and price being asked?

Thanks Howard

Edit: Was it the r.c. means seller on eBay?

Day 222


1971 Dell Stamps/Albums...

Does anyone know what I missed in this lot? I was in briefly as I wanted the Rawlings photo. They don't seem to become available often. Nonetheless, I couldn't justify the final price. $647.42 seems a bit excessive to me. When you include shipping it's close to $700.

My guess is that someone wanted the photo pretty badly. I can't see the store model gloves commanding that price, even if a tough glove. When I sold all of my Clemente gloves (12-15) over the last couple of years, I definitely lost money on them. But who knows

That Rawlings premium is quite scarce. While I haven't seen it sell for that kind of number, I haven't seen one sell in many (15+) years either. Not a shock if that pushed it. Also, IF the Sonnett box was connected to the Clemente glove, that would be pretty rare as well ( no where near as cool as your rawlings box though ) Agree the rest of the store gloves are no big deal ( I still have my sub collection of store model gloves and believe I have 40+ different ones)

I have wanted that Rawlings photo for a long time but not that much worth of wanting.

The exact same Clemente Rawlings Advisory Staff photo appeared on eBay. I was not going to miss out on the same photo twice. I am thrilled to finally add one to my collection.

Saw it. Had a lowball bid in just to ensure it didn't sell too low (~$200). GREAT item! First I've seen in a long time. Enjoy it.
