Brooks Robinson and the Baltimore Orioles

[Chstrite]

Day 122 – 2 May 2024
Not Brooks, but his buddy from Key West who saved a few errant throws, Boog Powell. I was lucky to find this recently and it did not break me. 1968 Topps 3-D. The grade is authentic given a mark on the front. Does not bother me at all given how it is so rare. I use to think I would find a Brooks 3-D but probably not in the cards.

Great Powell 3D!

Here is one you don’t see very often. A 1963 Memorial Stadium Martin Family Night paper hat hand out. The hat is perforated and I guess you could wear it. The game was played on June 28, 1963. Can seem to find a scored score card or ticket. Pretty cool piece.

Very nice! Haven’t seen this example before; very unique.

Charlie,

Very cool. I've never seen that piece before. Here's the program from the game. Don't have a ticket stub.

Thanks for showing the program, Alan.

It is unique…especially if Mark and Alan hasn’t seen.

I do not have a ton of details on this desk name plate but it was used by Brooks in his home office for a number of years. It is not fancy; the paint is a little rough and so is the rest of the work. It says, “Mr. Oriole.” He signed it at the bottom with HoF 1983. It measures 11in x 3.5 in x 3 in.

Pretty COOL! I’ve seen this pictured before with some of your collection and wondered what it was.
