November Pickups

[Lucas00]

Got this cool Yogi Yoo-hoo cup was listed as 60s but I think maybe early 70s. Dating it seems near impossible.

This is likely smallest thing I've ever bought on eBay — it measures only 3/4 of an inch. Not only does it feature one of the coolest Tiger mascots I've seen, but it appears to have come from an active war zone. When I tracked it online, I discovered that it was shipped from Dnipro, Ukraine on Oct. 23. The city was targeted by Russian missiles at least twice in the previous two weeks. I tracked the package online, and after it reached Odessa, it fell off the radar for about 10 days before popping up in Jamaica, New York. Two days later, it arrived in my post office box.

These pins were part of a Detroit Free Press promotion in 1935 when the Tigers won the World Series. "Iffy" penned a column in the newspaper.

I agree with 60's in fact early 60's. By 65 Yogi was a Met. And late 60's early 70's had the 7-11 cups. I think the style of plastic cup you would expect from the 70's era would be more like the 7-11 cups vs the style of cup you have.

Makes sense to me. Didn't take that simple fact into account. Facepalm. Thanks Jonathan.
