I vote YES. In fact I did just that last night with my New Orleans photos.

Kind of a weird item...and can't even see the otherside that the autograph is supposedly on, but I believe it was supposed to say Roy Mack, Connie's son...

Yeah, that's gotta be Roy Mack and not "Mach".

Looks like a header card for a newstand. I've seen that one somewhere before.

Picked it up in Lelands. I believe it is very thin cardboard, and is as Dan says. There are others out there, but I'll know for sure when I get it.

I was at a charitable event last night - and at the silent auction - picked up this framed Cooperstown Pennant (circa 1940s)


edit: since this is my first/only pennant - and I know nothing about it (other than what was in the auction listing).... any information or comments about the pennant are appreciated.

I picked up this catchers/umpire mask at an estate auction last night. Any idea of age? Also, it is marked with an R in a triangle, and it looks like it says Reach below the R.

Keith- That is considered to be a softball catchers mask. 1930s/40s I believe.

I picked up this 1900 Warlow AC Football team photo recently. Warlow AC played out of Whitestone NY and was one of the better football teams of the area. This team was the New York Independent Champions of 1900 after defeating the Tompkin A.C. of Brooklyn 28-0 in the championship game.

This Warlow AC team also played in the Football "World Series" in 1902 which was an indoor football tournament played at Madison Square Garden with other big name teams of the era, a combined Philadelphia Athletics and Phillies football team, the Watertown AC, Orange NJ AC, the NY Knickerbockers, the Syracuse AC (which included Glen Pop Warner and the Carlisle Indian Pierce brothers), and the Warlow AC.

These are what I believe to be the earliest images of HOFer Dave Bancroft :

1909 (the summer after his junior year in high school according to SABR)



1910 (sorry for the image screwup)

That is a stunning composite photo.
