Semi Pro, at one time was a farm team of the NY Giants. I was born and raised in Paterson NJ.

awesome! estate sales and garage sales and local flea markets! especially if you can pinpoint estate sales from people who are related to former players! good luck..i bet that's a tough team to find items from.

They are tough especially when sellers live under the delusion that rarity=expensive. I have quite a few and never paid over $40 but once and that was because they played an NFL team. I would have many more but I refuse to overpay.

yeah..i just checked ebay and see what you mean on pricing. i did notice some team pictures from 1937 and 1939 offered by r.cedeno. I have bought a ton of jim thorpe pictures from her and you can usually give her an offer of less than half of her 'bin' price and she'll accept. they will have been taken out of spalding and reach catalogues. i collect jim thorpe items and have bought alot of catalogue photos of him and team pics with him in it from her. pictures of teams that go with the programs might be a nice addition! just an idea!

Ive bought from her too, I wish the pics were bigger but they are cool.
