			Thanks Rawn and Greg... I like that knife and pennant too. The knife has Mack and the Athletics on the other side. Ironically, that same Pitcher image was used on a 1915 Red Sox Pennant. I know that one of the Forum members has it beautifully framed... I should know who it is but am having a brain fart... pretty sure it's Greg, but could be Steve.

|  Boston Braves no-hit pitchers 
			
			Here are some items related to two pitchers that threw no-hitters for the Boston Braves: - Jim Tobin ticket and snapshots from his no-hitter on April 27, 1944. I recently posted this, but it fits this thread. I also have added a Burke PC of Tobin while he was a member of the Boston Braves. - Verne Bickford no-hitter tickets (two different variations) from August 11, 1950 and his 1952 Bowman rookie card. I also have a 1949 snapshot of Bickford while he was playing for a northern CA affiliate of the Braves in 1949 prior to his call up to the bigs. There is a terrific signed magazine cut as well as a vintage fountain pen signed GPC of Bickford. BTW, both Jim Tobin and Verne Bickford's signatures are very challenging to find as they had earlier death dates. |

			You're welcome, Doug. Glad to see the photo found an appreciative new home! Ditto on the Tobin snapshots, Scott. I'm coming to this thread way late, but am really liking the old photos. Here's a few others that have passed through my hands: Kaiser Wilhelm ca. 1904  Bill Collins ca. 1910  1944 Braves Field panoramic (34" x 7-1/4")  1947 Vince DiMaggio & Bill McKechnie  Tommie Aaron ca. 1962   Last edited by thecatspajamas; 04-30-2012 at 10:34 PM. |

			Incredible items!  The photos from the grand opening are really cool. Below is an odd Braves item I acquired at the last Wilmington MA show. It is the letter R from a display that spelled out Boston Braves supposedly. Supposedly, it hung in the stadium at one point. I have no evidence to support either of these, but it is cool nonetheless. It is made of wood and is wrapped in plastic with cardboard backing in the photo below. Does anyone know anything about this? Has anyone seen any other letters? Supposedly, the dealer sold a B and an A 10-20 years ago. Alan Elefson aelefson@hotmail.com |
