I haven’t picked up anything new in a while but couldn’t pass this up. An Original 1925 Babe Ruth 8x10 Close-Up Type 1 photo. The detail and clarity on this photo is amazing! This one is definitely at the top of my favorite Ruth photos that I’ve ever owned.

Last week was a epic pickup week for my no-hit ticket collection.
Two really tough no-hit tickets from the 1960's I was able to pick up an unimprovable signed ticket stub from HOF Jim Palmer's no-hitter on August 13, 1969. In May, while visiting Cincinnati on a business trip, I had the pleasure of visiting the newly revamped Cincinnati Reds Museum and Hall of Fame. It's truly awesome & I would highly recommend checking it out if you get the chance as it is extremely well done. One of the new mini-exhibits especially caught my eye. They had two tickets and a narrative about Houston Colt .45's pitcher Ken Johnson's no-hit loss 1-0 against the visiting Cincinnati Reds team and opposing pitcher Joe Nuxhall on April 23, 1964. This was historic in that it was the first time that a pitcher had hurled a 9 inning no-hitter and lost the game. After contacting Chris Eckes the Curator of the Cincinnati Reds Museum, I'm very happy to report that I was able to work out a creative trade that benefitted the museum and allowed me to finally add a ticket to Ken Johnson's no-hitter. It's literally been on my want list for decades, and prior to visiting the Reds Museum I had never even heard of one existing. Many thanks to Chris Eckes and Brink Van Horn for allowing me to add these tickets to my advanced no-hitter collection. I now have tickets to 218 different no-hitter games dating back to 1901 (out of 303 total no-hitters since the 1800's). 159 of these tickets are signed by 165 total no-hit pitchers. 129 of these tickets are full tickets 39 are no-hit games pitched by pitchers in the HOF Last edited by Scott Garner; 10-30-2019 at 05:50 AM. |
