1956 B&W photo

Colorized, yes. Then customized filters are overlaid in 4 parts. Only 1 of the cards has been produced. It debuted in the Christmas Auctions. There will be another this year, at some point--not sure when.
One difficulty in creating these is that I'm a stickler for accurate time periods of the photos. Like a 1961 photo of Brooks for a "rookie" card annoys me, Lol.

This is a freakshow thread. It's perfect. I've seen stuff I didn't know existed and beautiful examples of stuff I did. I check this every day I can. It's astounding how meticulously these compilations are kept.

I have to say, John, BE CAREFUL with that coffee pot so close to your display!!!

Phil,

Please, please let me know when another one becomes available and keep it hush...hush..

Thanks, took a while to find them in nice shape. I like to display boxes as they were originally intended.

Day 36 (February 5, 2020 – 036)

A small Permagraph plaque of Brooks with a pretty nice blue sharpie signature of Brooks on the baseball portion of the item. Item highlights Brooks’ career stats along with a few of his accomplishments as a player.

Clint,

If you have an opportunity can I see the tag for the Boddicker jacket? Also, do you know the year of use?

Good morning, I agree with this being a freak show thread that I love. There are so many new items that I didn't know about that I now have to (joyously and annoyingly) find.

That Orioles plate of the final out of the '66 World Series ended on Ebay last night. Did anyone on here purchase it?

I just picked up this collection of Orioles Advocate paper ephemera from 1964-66. It includes meeting minutes, several blank birthday cards and envelopes, and invitations to various events, including Brooks Robinson Night at Memorial Stadium in 1964.

It all seems to have been in the collection of one of the board members of the Orioles Advocates.
