Mark,

Great player and one of my favorites. I met him once and he was kind enough to let my son take a picture with him. He was a real class act even though everyone was vying for his time.

Great thread for a player tribute.

Default Brooks Robinson New Hall of Fame
Day 200 – 19 July 2024
Recently, the Baseball Hall of Fame created some new pins for HoF members. Below is the Brooks Robinson new pin. I think the pin is nice. I believe they are about $10 on the HoF website plus shipping. Ebay has a few for about $24.

Default Baltimore Orioles Banks
Day 201 – 20 July 2024
Nothing too exciting today. A few of my “banks” related to the Baltimore Orioles. The Farmers Bank and Trust Company Bank of Hanover is pretty rare and from the 1970s. The white ball I believe is from the 1970s, too. The National Bohemian can I believe is from the 1970s. The Bobblehead type Bird is more recent. The plastic hat I believe is from the 1970s. There is a crystal ball shaped bank out there I am looking for. Show us your banks.

Your experience is pretty typical with any encounter with Brooks. Such a down to earth great person. He’s definitely missed…

I have one head bank that just has Baltimore Orioles on the bottom portion.

Really neat looking HOF pin…

Default Brooks Robinson Wooden Sign
Day 202 – 21 July 2024
The Wooden “Robinson #5” sign I picked up from the Cooperstown Hall of Fame store. It is new but really like the craftmanship. It is pretty heavy and looks old.
