Brooks Robinson and the Baltimore Orioles

[Mark70Z]

Am I the only Brooks fan that doesn’t have a sporting goods binder?!? Yours looks as nice as Clint’s…

Really like the business card; I’ve never seen one before. Something else to look for that I didn’t even know that was out there.

Very cool pickups Charlie; very unique and interesting items.

I believed I've posted in the past, but here's a fairly unique item from the store.

Hi Gang:

Don't think I posted this before. This is the original artwork portfolio from the 1963 Post Cereal set. This is different from the Jello portfolio shown in another thread. As you will see this folio is for a 14 oz. Raisin Bran box and has Brooks on it.

There is a cover, a top sheet with players names etc a bottom sheet with just the over sized photos. Then the "final" with the overlay atop the photos

The "cards" are much larger than the ones issued as they used this for camera art.

Obviously one of a kind. Although ones were made for all the different size boxes and different cereals.

Thanks for sharing the Proof. Had not seen before. I guess this would be the final product.

Day 138 – 18 May 2024
Today I am showing my 3 Cooperstown Bears of Brooks Robinson. These are not too expensive but can be hard to find. The one on the left is celebrating Brooks 1964 MVP season. I really enjoy the uniform. The middle bear is celebrating the 1966 WS. I am not sure if the glove was part of the package but enjoy it either way. The one on the right is celebrating the 1971 season and has a bat. I think the orange jersey looks especially nice.

Day 139 – 19 May 2024
The friends of the HoF receive a bear at their players induction ceremony is what I understand with this bear. The bear is a beanie baby. This particular bear is no one else but #5, Brooks Robinson. The Brooks bear is small and still in its original packaging. Saw one other one over the years. Hard to believe this one is 40 plus years old.

Day 140 – 20 May 2024
I am not exactly sure about this doll but believe it is from the 1970s. It is a basic stuffed animal and measures about 12 inches. It is in its original packaging. It says I am a little Oriole on the front and the back has the old bird logo swinging a bat.
