The lawn predates me, so I'm not sure what's in it. There seems be quite variety of weeds in there. I have mow it constantly because some of them grow so quickly.

Off topic: you have a lot of clover in your grass. Is that on purpose? I know they harvest micro clover sod now. Clover will supposedly grow in areas that are tough to grow grass. I tried in in my yard, but it didn’t “take.” I work at a golf course and we have areas where the clover is THICK![/QUOTE]

Well there must be a 4-leaf Clover hidden in there somewhere! What good fortune to find 2 such beautiful examples so close together. First time I have seen either example. Congrats Chris!

On a somewhat related note, the latest TSOG Video features 3 vintage Caps, that match the Uniforms from the 3 prior segments. No HOFers, but some awesome vintage styles none-the-less.

I’ve been looking for these ceramic Gunner mugs (it’s an illness) for many years. I’m pleased to finally find them in such nice condition.

Very nice mugs. Do you know approximately what year they’re from?

And what’s the story on those?

Thanks Mike and Rob. I believe they were created by the Post Gazette as they are similar in design to a few plates I have in my collection that were sold by the Gazette. I have always assumed they were released between 1970-73. I have a matching Chicken on the Hill plate. I have never seen matching plates for the other two. Bob Prince vintage memorabilia is tough to find. I’d love to find one of his zany sports coats.
