The only things I'm picking up lately are "you've been outbid" and "sorry, you didn't win" notices.

I'm now the proud owner of a new Kreindler piece...
The really clear image is Graig's photo of it (check out his website for high quality image, looks much better there even), I can't get a great one with my camera phone. Photos do not do this thing justice! I also just got the smaller Ruth study that I've had for a while back from the framers and put her up by the big guy! They look awesome together. I also moved my Ruth store model bat from the other side of the room to rest above the Kreindler pieces. I don't ever want to leave my room now! Also got the first ever Kreindler signed baseball! Sweet! Thank's so much Graig!

Thanks!
Here's a close up of smaller study piece. Even at only 5"x7", it's an amazing piece on its own... I just love early Ruth images, both of these date to 1920. I may eventually get the big piece framed but not sure, I love it the way it is now too.

Erick,
That new Ruth is fantastic. Congrats. What size is it? I also struggled for a while on whether or not to frame my painting. I liked the raw look, but I really do think that a nice frame can really enhance the look even more. I think this is especially true for the smaller paintings, meaning 16x20 and smaller plus ones slightly bigger, which yours looks to be. I think Scott's Vandy is the perfect example of how the right frame can really enhance it.(Although, I am biased towards mine as well) Mark This is mine framed(It's a crappy photo. Looks much better in person) Here is Scott's.

Thanks guys.
Mark, Scott, Bob, those are all fantastic. Those really are the perfect complimentary frames on those first too! The colors and look of them match up perfectly to each. The new Ruth is actually pretty big at 22x34. I'm in no rush to frame it but certainly will leave the option open. I would need to find a good framer around me and take a look.

a few early JF Hillerich's....
Here's a few early JF Hillerich & Son's that I've picked up recently, plus the Sears Roebuck. The decal bat is an Eddie Collins, which is only identifiable by his signature on the decal. The bats are all heavy duty 'clubs' with thick handles, which I really love. I'm assuming the 'J.J.' is for Joe Jackson? The end of the barrel is squared off which looks original, but maybe not? Thanks for looking.

Nice bats Matt.
Thanks guys, I know I'm biased but I think its up there with Graig's best pieces too. Just a tremendous image of a young Ruth in his element.

Vintage Cardinals Felt Patch
I picked up this felt patch with along with a group of other 1920's-30's items relating to the St Louis Cardinals. It measures 8"x6" with very intricate stitching. Of course it commemorates the Cardinals appearances in the WS in those years. There are no manufacture's tags so it could be homemade. Anyone ever come across something similar?

Busch stadium seats...
Picked these up at a local consignment shop today... Both seats are mlb authenticated, and were removed from Busch in 2005... They'll fit nicely in ky sons room as these seats were present at Busch when the sox beat the cards in game 4 to win their first series in 86 years.

Monte Pearson no-hitter scorebook and clippings- 1st no-hitter at Yankee Stadium!
Many thanks to Brock for allowing me to add this beautiful scorebook to Monte Pearson's historic 1st no-hitter ever pitched at Yankee Stadium. Pearson no-hit the visiting Indians 13-0 in the 2nd game of a doubleheader on only 2 days rest. The scorebook came with several NY vintage newspaper clippings from the following day recapping the doubleheader sweep of the Tribe.
Ironically, this scorebook and clippings originally came with a ticket from this game as well and was offered in the SCD in the mid 1990's, but another collector beat me to the punch. I was able to subsequently work out a trade with the collector and have owned the ticket to this game since the 1990's. By picking up the scorebook and clippings, I have kept the original lucky patron's memories of the game intact, after an amazing 20 year separation. Pretty cool!

^^^ nice, Scott. To what do you attribute the differences in the autographs? Age progression, like with Mantle and Mays?

Scott -- That's an amazing story!
Here's a pickup I made at a local show today. Single signed ball of Homer Hillebrand. I don't normally collect signed baseballs, but I couldn't pass up a member of the 1905 Pirates! Greg |

FINALLY made a pickup!! The pot metal bottle opener on the left is new. I have had the SF Giants version for awhile, but had never seen the NY version. Both were sold by Abercrombie and Fitch. I believe they were made by Loyal Products but A&F must had a batch made just for them. If you've ever handled one of these, you know they're HEAVY! The SF version is most likely 1958, in that the hat emblem is actually that of the Seals. You will see a lot of stuff from the Giants' inaugural west coast season with the Seals logo...it was all most likely produced before the SF team finalized their logo.

I recently picked up this early 1934 Eagles letterhead signed by the first coach of the Eagles and early pro football star Lud Wray. It came with the original envelope it was mailed in.
