Default Thanks for kind words Guys...

I must say that is seems like everyone has stepped up their game since I've been away, WoW!

Dan; That team shot is one of the finest I've ever seen. I mean, just look at the kids tippy-toeing their hardest to get their mug in the photo. And with Vance leading the way, every single guy is looking smack in the lens. Congrats on a great pick-up.

Jarrod; Good for you. Oh how I know the feeling. My very first Conlon photograph was also a Hornsby. You better start thinking of ways to explain to the Mrs as you continue to add another Conlon here and there. Good luck with that!

Paisano; A terrific peek into "A Day at the Ballpark" from more than a century ago. Talk about the old line "A picture's worth a thousand words". Those are keepers.

Mark & Graig, killer pick-ups for the both of you, as well as everyone else that has added to their collection this month... well done.

As for me, I've been full speed ahead collecting Beatles memorabilia and am really enjoying myself. My pal Mark V. dragged me back into Baseball with the subtle hint of a possible trade for a Ruth/Thompson photo he had acquired.

So after I got my hands on that, I started sending feelers out regarding some Gehrig and Ruth TYPE 1 photos and was able to close the Gehrig photo that I then started this thread with.

All good things, Jimmy

P.S. And Graig... there's no going back!

Ha! Luckily, she was the one that got me into Conlon as she bought me his photo book for Christmas. So I can blame it all on her.

Default 1918 - 1919 ? Baseball Betting Cards

Not entirely sure what these are so if anyone could help, much obliged. They appear to be betting cards/slips. The "War Tax" on these helps me date them. I've seen that on 1919 Ticket Stubs. I just found this on Wiki regarding the War Tax: "While this Act is referred to as the Revenue Act of 1918, it was not passed until early in 1919. The tax continued until it was repealed in 1924." So I now can date them to 1919 to 1923.

But there is no column for Sunday and by the 20's they were playing Sunday games. A last clue is the no "H" at the end of Pittsburg, any idea when that was added? I want these
to be 1919 but think it will remain a mystery and at best put them at 1919-1923.

Each slip on the back is intact, but if u unfold them they list all the teams as well as minor league teams as well.

Anyhow I think its a neat accent piece to my Black Sox collection, a nice gambling tie in item.
