Awesome! Glad you located one. I picked up mine at the National when a dealer was wholesaling some large format photos...got it crazy cheap. The thing I love about that first game photo is the look on Pete's face...the other guys are merely taking the field, business as usual, and Pete is just about to crap himself with excitement! Lol

Congrats man...That is going to make one fantastic "bookends" display of Pete's career! Glad my post made you aware of it. I look forward to seeing them together when you get them displayed...hope you post an updated pic!

It is funny that you mentioned Pete's face because that is the first thing I noticed too. I will definitely post a picture when I get it hung. Thanks again.

Default Anyone out there with photos of the outside of the Palace of the fans

I'm trying to locate any and all who may have any images of the Palace of the fans from outside the ball park?

That's a tough ask. I'm sure that a few exist, but it seems every surviving photo and PC show the spectacular interior. I am eager to see an exterior image as well.

Default Complete 1919-21 W514 Reds Subset

A little easier to complete than their 1919 WS counter parts subset, but still desirable and overlooked I think. Didn't try for high quality/grades but still a pretty nice looking grouping for strip cards with room to improve on a few if I ever decided to go that route

I know this is the memorabilia section, but it looks like this thread has plenty of cards, so here's another one.

Here's a great look at the Redlegs during that memorable summer of 1956, courtesy of the Cincinnati Pictorial Enquirer.

Very nice collections! I love the strip card set. I'm sure time and patience went into both groups.

Default HOF Ernie Lombardi 1938 signed Testimonial Program

Wow, I can't believe that it's been almost 2 years since anyone has posted anything new on this great Cincinnati Reds thread.
Time to pump some life into this bad boy!

I'm very excited to have recently added this October 2, 1938 Ernie Lombardi Testimonial Dinner Program to my 1938 Vander Meer showcase.
The program is signed by Vander Meer that was in attendance as well as Ernie Lombardi on the inside cover. Check out the small Ernie Lombardi catcher dangler on the front of the program.


In addition to catching Vandy's historic back-to-back no-hitters in 1938, "the Schnozz" also won the NL batting title with a .342 batting average.
Lombardi, considered by many to be perhaps the slowest runner to play in the major leagues, had a HOF worthy 17 year career that featured a .306 batting average. Impressive considering that you know that all of these were clean hits, not little infield dribblers!

Anyway, this program joins my Johnny Vander Meer Day program from 2 weeks earlier.

Enjoy and Happy Holidays to everyone on net54!

Here's a Topeka Reds pin, a Reds game used cap from 1954-55, a 1960s souvenir batting helmet, a team photo of the Columbia Reds with Frank Robinson, and popcorn megaphone.

Great mix of stuff Chris! You and Scott are getting me fired up with this Reds stuff you've been posting! I just recently finished adding all the cards that go with my Kahn's poster from 1959.

Wow, Chris, that poster is a real beauty. It must be from 1959, which I recall is one of the tougher Kahn's sets to collect. The players are all wearing the one-year '59 home cap with pinstripes and an embroidered wishbone "C."

does anyone have any 1915 and 1916 team photos, scorecards or other material from those two years? i would
love to see some examples. i think i did see a 1915 photo way back in the thread but it was hard to read the names

thanks
mike

Thanks, Chris. The other giveaway is Frank Thomas only played for the Reds in 59. Nice cap by the way

Just bought this Mike Donlin themed Reds pin, from 1902 or 1903. Still looking for something that actually shows Donlin as a Red.

I spent years 2-21 of my life in Ohio…was in HS and college through the Big Red Machine years…I always hated the Reds (jealousy) but that’s neither here nor there….just wondering how you guys feel about the current sorry state of the Reds. You and the city deserve better.

I found all of their "moves" just prior to the 2022 season to be disgusting. I barely followed them last year as a result. They were set up to be a contender.

Cincinnati is one of the best fan bases in MLB, and their fans clearly deserve better. I'm a Reds fan living in the PNW, and saw the same BS from the Mariners for over a decade. At least the M's are now viable. Lots easier to root for them than the self-imploding Reds.

Great American Ballpark should play this during the 7th inning stretch...

I, too, live in the PNW currently.

I grew up in Billings, Montana, and we were the MiLB team for the Reds, and we were geographically centered to root for 3 MLB teams (Seattle, Denver, Minneapolis). I attached to the Reds and Mariners in 1995 when both made the playoffs. The Mariners overshadowed the Reds that year. I also became a huge fan of Cleveland in the late 90s. I went all in on the Reds in 1999 when they won 95 games, and in 2000 they got Griffey. The only time I've seen the Reds in person is when they travel to Seattle. Needless to say, all five teams I'm emotionally attached to have not won a World Series within my memory; Cleveland has been three times, and Colorado once.

It's hard to be mad at the Reds when every other team I root for also "align payroll to our resources." So I've learned to appreciate small victories.

A salary cap would do wonders for baseball — just see how well it works in other sports like the NBA, where teams in cities like New Orleans and Sacramento have better records than teams in LA and Chicago. Unfortunately, the greedheads who run baseball have rigged the game in favor of the big market teams. For every small market team that has some success, like the Cleveland Guardians, there are a bunch of other small market teams like the Reds and A's which are doing little to get better, yet their owners are getting well-compensated through revenue sharing.

Great point.

Also, just look at the Reds' "sister team". The same "small market Bengals" are thriving as one of the best teams in the NFL.

I picked this scrapbook up years ago because, although it started as a KiKi Cuyler scrapbook (I think), it had a few Cubs in it. Thought I would share for the Reds fans on the site.

I picked up this neat scrapbook about a year ago that a lady made from 1974-76. She was very much a fan of Cesar Geronimo, but the book is representative of all of the Big Red Machine during that era.

Default Cesar Geronimo Super Fan

Hi Dan,
No doubt your scrapbook assembled by Jayne had to be Cesar Geronimo's biggest fan. That's a great scrapbook!

Cesar Geronimo trivia question for the day:
What unique milestone did Geronimo share with TWO HOF'ers?

I have a bit of Reds memorabilia. It would take some digging. However, I can share this recent addition to my collection. I loved watching Pete tear around the bases like his ass was on fire. He played the game hard and he played it right. I always loved this quote and think it defines him and his style of play. I was thrilled when he agreed to sign the ball and inscribe it this way. He grinned while doing so.

I love Pete Rose. I even loved him as a Dodger fan in the 70s when he was helping to kick our butts frequently.



Here is Evar Swanson from 1929 or 1930 by Charles Conlon.

Default New addition to my Johnny Vander Meer showcase

Admittedly, this is a cross-over 1938-1942 Brooklyn Dodgers item that I didn't even know existed until just recently.

Here is a Brooklyn Dodgers Larry McPhail souvenir baseball that is a perfect complimentary piece for my Johnny Vander Meer showcase that is a tribute to his back-to-back no-hitters in 1938.

Vandy famously pitched his second consecutive no-hitter on 6/15/38, the 1st night game at historic Ebbets Field.

In order to display the ball, I improvised and created a custom stand out of a Vandy commemorative silicone wristband, and the round case used to hold a set of 1993 King B collectible jerky discs.

Mercurial, hard-drinking Larry McPhail was an interesting figure during his tenure in MLB. While with the Reds he brought night baseball with lights to Crosley Field. When he became President of the Dodgers a few years later, he brought night baseball to Brooklyn as well.

One additional innovation that McPhail pioneered was introducing interesting die-cut tickets to special games at Brooklyn.
Dodgers Opening Day games in 1939 and 1940 featured a baseball and catcher's mitt in the ticket design.
The night games in the late 1930's featuring the die-cut lightbulb design seen in my Vandy showcase below were brilliant, IMHO.

I had the opportunity to buy a grail item for my Barry Larkin collection (that will be posted when it arrives; it comes from a fellow Net54 member). I had to sell a few items to pay for it. I ended up with some leftover funds, and I splurged on this 1940 partial team signed ball. But the provenance is a 1940 telegram announcing they won a contest for tickets to a WS game in Cincinnati. It comes with the original envelope.

Thanks to a fellow Net54 member, I was able to obtain a 1990 GU Barry Larkin bat. He was the original owner, and bought it at the stadium and still had the original cert.

Awesome Tim!

What a beautiful gamer. And from 1990, no less...

That's one of the best Larkin Bats I've seen.

Many congrats!
