Brooks Robinson and the Baltimore Orioles

[Mark70Z]

Day 27 (January 27, 2020 – 027)

Mike (Bocabirdman) posted an image of his Wallpaper of the end of the 1966 World Series; Orioles against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Today I’ve pictured a ceramic plate that commemorates the final out of the 1966 World Series showing Brooks, Andy Etchebarren, and Dave McNally. The plate is made by Conrad Crafters of Wheeling, WV.

The Baby Birds sweep the LA Dodgers in four straight.

It’s so weird. I’ve only seen two of these plates since I’ve been collecting and yesterday I saw the plate listed on eBay. Was going to share, but you beat me to it. Thanks!!

Mark,

I love the plate. I too have never seen one before.

I'm not sure if this item was previously posted, but here's a set of 1970 Orioles matchbooks. Inside each matchbook is the 1970 O's schedule. There are 24 different matchbooks. The obvious omissions are Terry Crowley and Marcelino Lopez. Both played much more than Bobby Floyd, who was traded mid season.

I'll be posting my Brooks matchbook one day so I hope it's ok to duplicate if need be. If not, I'm going to do it anyway just to make sure I can have an item everyday of this year. Wonder why they didn't include those two; any idea?
