Finally found a nice 8x10 of Al Simmons

Picked up a nice group of equipment and pennants.

I recently picked up a lot of misc items that included 2 B18 blankets and a couple of photos. The pictures on the listing weren't great but I was expecting them to be a couple of cheap framed prints. Turns out that they're 1952 Wheaties Tin Tray Premiums.

I'm pretty happy. If I can pick up the Kiner and the Robinson Trays for the same $19 that this lot cost - I'll be over the moon!

Not really a RPPC collector but I did pick up 3 recently that pictures the 1918 Camp Funston baseball team. This team had many MLBers and higher profile athletes. The two came from one of the players but are not signed on the back just short messages so hard to determine which player.

Pete Alexander did play on this team but he was not in camp when they played the Saint Louis Cardinals 2nd teamers and it does not look like to me he is in the team picture...but could be the tall guy standing 5th from the left...but not sure if he wore Army issued glasses which this guy is.

I bought them bc Win Noyes, who would play briefly for the 1919 White Sox, was on this team and is very likely in the team photo...just cant tell which one he is (I have 3 good candidates)

Great pickup and the clarity on them is amazing

Those tin trays are cool. Are Kiner and Robinson (which one?) the only others?

Yep, there's just 4 in the set. Jackie is the really expensive one.

Wow- great pickup there! So rare to find a good photo signed by Simmons.

Really worth the wait!
