Something new
OK so I picked up a nice little picture last week and finally got it today.
1923 World Series Game 5 10/14/23 By Paul Thompson. Showing Joe Dugan scoring on his inside the park HR in the botom of the second inning. Whitey Witt and Bullet Joe Bush scored in front of him. Babe Ruth is standing by pointing to the plate, as he was on deck behind Dugan in the lineup. Also pictured is Hank Gowdy catching for the NY Giants, Home Plate Umpire HOFer Billy Evans, and batboy Eddie Bennett. Pic is approx 7x9. http://www.retrosheet.org/boxesetc/1...140NYA1923.htm

Thanks Jimmy.
I thought it was a pretty cool pic as well. It's not in my usual collecting realm, but I made an exception. Don't worry, I'm not gonna start collecting Ruth. I haven't decide if I'm going to keep it long term, but I'm enjoying it for now. My newest addition was a gift from the wife. She saw me looking at in online and told me she wanted to buy it for me. 1935 Gehrig with his wife singing to him a song she co-wrote. It's a very warm piece. The type I really enjoy.   I've seen the sheet music but haven't gotten one for myself yet. Best, Mark

============================================== A friend sent me an email a couple of weeks ago regarding a few really neat 1960's Beatles items that he recently discovered at his Father's home. My friend told his Dad that he had a friend that was a Beatles collector. His Father told him to make a deal. Several days later, these arrived.  This large poster c. 1965 Beatles Live at Shea - Film for all who weren't lucky enough to see them live, they could catch the movie at select theaters. And just how cool is it that the 3 Stooges "short" was the opening act for The Fab Four! The second piece was this terrific Beatles Wallet still in it's original packaging! I just love stuff like that.  Both of these pieces literally hadn't seen the light of day for over forty years!Beatlesshea.jpgbeatleswallet.jpg And boy, was I surprised to find a bonus piece he included.  This sweet c. 1975 Poster that was surely meant to grace the walls of your neighborhood Music Store. As you can see, it displays all of the albums the Boys produced as both from their years together and through their solo careers up to that point, which was 1975.Ya know, I really like my collection... A LOT! But it's the friendships that are forged, and the memories you have from them, that will stay with you long after your collection has been sold... BeatlesalbumsPOSTER.jpg

New HOF signed ball of Bobby Doerr. Also, happens to be on a Senior League balls, so it also adds a new professional ball type to my collection as well. Came from Dennis C. Purdy with his COA. I don't know much about him other than his time at VCBC, but the ball looked ok to me(From my experience his B's are generally all over the board, and you typically don't see many down-turns on the D, but I decided to give it a go). Anyone see any issues? Or does it check out as OK?

Found a really nice 2 page handwritten Joe Paterno letter, Not something I usually would pick up but the price seemed right. Thought it had good content and is pre head coach days. Actually written at the time the Jerry Sandusky was on a DE on the PSU team. I really dont recall seeing a handwritten letter latley usually the later typed recruiting letters simply signed Joe. If anyone is interested let me know as I am not attached to it and will be looking to move it in the future.

One more nice one this month....
I just received this original Chicago Tribune This Day in Sports art piece by artist Hollreiser covering HOF Bob Feller's Opening Day no-hitter on April 16, 1940. Sweet!

Scott,
That's a very nice one. He did some really nice work. I just realized I have one of his of Gehrig as well, from about the same time frame. Mark
