Well as Jimmy and I always think alike I was able to work a nice deal on 4 Gehrigs. First from 1928,second from 1936 Thirdfrom 1938 and the fourth from 1935. The 1938 photo has a nice caption but hard to read "Lou Gehrig
veterian new york yankee first baseman who will see action with the american league champions in the coming world series. Dated 9/26/38 This would be Lous last world series as he finished 4 for 14 with 4 singles in the series. A sad time for all yankee fans. ![]()

David, Ben,
Thankyou I also liked the 28 photo. A very powerful look on Lou. Starting to get very hard to find these type of photos. I know Jimmy can concur with me! Ben + David you both have such great collections I always love seeing them David esp. that Babe Ruth Ball ! You know the one I mean! ![]()

WoW! Al Congrats!![]() Geez Al, what an incredible haul you made there. My head is still spinning! Well, what's good about you getting them as opposed to Ben or David, is that I may still have a chance to trade for one of them someday!

Just a quick question as I was re scaning the 1928 photo for someone I scaned the back also and just noticed that it looked to me that the photo was a 1927 with a 8 put over the 7. Not that it matters to me either way as I love the photo but I was also told that the uniform is from 1927. You can see that the pencil change was done from the original writer. Wanted some input on the uniform being 1927.

Picked this up in an antique mall today. I've not seen this style before. The felt feels 50s, but it could be 60s. Pre 1969 for sure (no mlb logo).

One of my main focus areas is baseball board games - and skill games are part of it.
I picked this one up last week - and I'm amazed what the difference a week makes. I saw one in Yee's auction - saved it - but found it out of my price range almost immediately - game collectors just won't pay big bucks for these. It's probably from the late 30s - 40s and the one I picked up is in nice shape! ![]() ![]() ![]() I paid $46 for this one - the one in Yee's auction went for a whopping $186! I'm guessing two guys wanted it really bad - not sure why otherwise - I'm sure the allusion to "Babe" may have been the reason? Sure was a sneaky way to evoke interest in a toy without paying a penny to Ruth? If this game actually said "Babe" on it? Who knows what it would've brought in Yee's auction. |

It hardly seems worth posting after the tremendous items thus far, but I picked up this small Adirondack Bat Factory piece when I stopped for a little rest this afternoon. I love that Larry Doby was already part of their signature group by this point and that Bobby Thomson is also on the cover (didn't he do something important with a bat in 1951?) I wonder if I can still get a dozen Larry Doby bats for $18.90? And I'll take one of the Joe Garagiola sticks as long as it doesn't tell Me and Yogi stories.

The Standard Catalog lists this as a 1914 issue, but based on the players listed on the supplement, I believe the photo was taken in March of 1915.
