Nice items, especially the ball. Did you catch it at the game? Hill is a class act. Too bad we lost him as a Jay, but he was just too hot and cold with us.

I don't know what it is about this card, but I just had to have it. I love the way the signature looks against the yellow. And its a nice vintage Hank.

Chris, I bought the ball directly from the kid that caught it. I also got his ticket from the TGI Fridays HR Porch where it bounced into plus there was a great video of him catching it. I made him send me photos of him wearing the same clothes, plus he signed a notarized statement, so other than catching it yourself I think he passed the burden of proof. I sent the documents along with the ball to be signed so Aaron could see it was legit. I guess it passed because he signed it the way he did.

I remember him with the Jays and he was always a solid player.

picked up this neat Bill Veeck Cut from Jim Stinson earlier this week... Got it back from my framer today...

The picture tells it all! Ned Garver & fellow Browns teamates present owner Bill Veeck with a Silver Cup for firing Rogers Hornsby as manager in 1952...

The trophy read: " For the greatest play since the Emancipation Proclamation"

Thansk Again Jim!

Pretty psyched to have gotten this one... My dad picked it up at an estate sale in Medfield Mass which turned out the be the house of James Kerasiotes who was the former Secretaty of Transportation in Massachusetts

He was responsible for the renaming of Rte 9 in Massachusetts to the Ted Williams Highway and Tunnell...

Measures 2' x 2' and is going to make a great display piece once framed and matted with a Teddy Ball Game Auto...
