November Pick Ups

[ironmanfan]

Ok, technically I picked this up in Otober (eBay "Buy It Now") but since the calendar now reads November, I thought I'd post a new thread.

It's a game used (MLB Certified) game used First Base from 09/21/01. The significance (to me anyway) it was the game from Cal Ripken's last career double (603) & I'll have him sign & inscribe that way in the very near future.

[sylbry]

Picked up a 1972 Twins road gamer worn by Charlie Manuel. The 1972 road is a one year style. It is the only year the Twins worn a button down road knit, the only year of this color (sort of a greenish blue), and only jersey with that particular sleeve patch.

Nice base!!! Nothing like the MLB Certified so you know it really is real.

Lelands has the last Ripken base used before 9/11/01 which would make an amazing collectible. I have one that he signed for me too.

Nice Jazz Jersey. Just wondering how you were able to get one? I talked directly with the Jazz, last season, and they told me they would not sell them!!! They added that they only way a legitimate game worn Jazz jersey (from recent era) would be on the market would be if someone snuck it out.

[b.heagy]

Picked up this very rare patch. Worn on the sleeves of MLB uniforms during WWII.

[ham1963]

I p/u up a Ryan Freel Cincinnati Reds game used bat uncracked. Freel may not be a superstar but the guy is a gamer. I might put this bat on E-Bay on Tuesday so I will entertain offers. Just e-mail me at ham1963@earthlink.net

[yanks12025]

I just got these in the mail today. A Robinson Cano game used 2007 bat. A Miguel Cabrera game used Zinger, i dont know what year it's from. I love my new Cano bat, i was going to buy a third but the guy never got back to me but its ok. I think i may have outbidded some forum members on it, sorry.

I also got this Dewayne Wise bat at the end of last month from Kyle(Very nice bat, thanks again kyle).

Sorry for the big photos.

[33bird]

Jazz jerseys. Wayne wasn't able to get any of last years Jazz jerseys (2006-07) but he got a ton of their 2004-05 and 2005-06 game used stuff. He drove a truck there just to pick it all up. Most of it is listed on his site.
Perez Bat. They listed two different Perez bats. I got the one that didn't have a missing piece. Got a real good deal on it. Comes with Reds coa too.

Here are some of my recent pick ups from the last month or so. The Orioles bat was purchased from Tim at HOFbats.com. A great guy! And the Cardinals bat was purchased from Ebay seller Gameused101. The Cardinals bat was also used by Ray Lankford, as Eric's #24 was crossed out and replaced with #16.

Always Looking for more Eric Davis Items!

That's kinda cool. I know when the Reds traded Eric to the Dodgers, Eric gave Reggie Sanders his bats. I would love to track down one of those bats!

Here are mine.

A Cameron Maybin and James Skelton Jersey

[cohibasmoker]

When in doubt, checks with the guys at the forum. I just got this jersey and I believe it’s a Giants jersey from the mid-1960’s.

The jersey is long sleeve and was made by Sand-knit with only one tag on the bottom of the jersey. The material is not dureen but a combination of cotton and perhaps double-knit material. The numbers are sewn onto the jersey. Take note of the sleeve-numbers and how high the numbers are on the back. A nameplate was never on the back of the jersey.

It is an awesome jersey with little or no wear. Any help would be appreciated,

Jim

[34swtns]

2000 season Warrick Dunn home jersey from AMI

Just found this on Getty - 1964 Giants

[RKGIBSON]

Jim,

Here are a couple of book I have that has pictures of that style jersey. The Game is copyright 1963. The Giants is 1964. The Giants book has pictures on about every page, but no #90.

Roger

[cohibasmoker]

RK: Thanx for the Information. Been all over Getty Images and there are several images and like you, I can't seem to find a Number 90. It is a very cool jersey indeed.

Thanx again,

The font of the "9" seem to match the photo you posted. However, the "Sand Stretch" tag was not introduced until 1968, or sooner. It's a cool jersey at any rate. Will do a little more research...GOOD LUCK!

[cohibasmoker]

BTPH, thanx for the update on the tag. I have always been an Internet kind of guy when researching jerseys but when RKGibson was kind enough to post his two reference books, I started digging around eBay and found that there is a plethora of vintage books out there. I have a feeling I’ll be updating my sports library.

Thanx again,

Some college gamers this month, picked up a 1978 last season Woody Hayes era Ohio State home lineman's jersey, Russell tagging, tons of repairs.

1964 Houston Colt .45s Road Flannel #34 (Gordon Jones), All Original, including the very rare Texas Flag patch. Number had been resewn in sections by the team from heavy wear. Strangely enough, the Astros later retired #34 for Nolan Ryan. Cool!

Was that Mattingly hat from the Steiner auction? I was going to bid, but I was sick on Tuesday and fell asleep. How much did you get it for? Thanks.

Mike

[TFig27]

Mike

That was the one. I got it for 276. After fees and shipping, about 330.
Didn't think that was too bad. Just out of curiosity, how much did you plan on bidding if you don't mind me asking?

Tom

[nomarmauerfan]

TFig,
I was going to go to $300. Had permission from the wife to use that as my birthday and Christmas gifts from her. Couldn't go any more than that because I found a Mattingly bat and it should be coming within the next week/week-and-a-half. That has wiped out my funds, but it is my Holy Grail...he was my favorite player when I was in my teens. Great find and congrats...I'm jealous.

Mike

Nice job on the bat pickup. I would love to see pics if you have any. My email is TFig27@aol.com . Or, make sure you post when it comes in!

[beavisrules]

genius,

I saw the picture of your Notre Dame jersey. . .

just a thought - if you have a 1988 football media guide, there are a lot of pictures of players from the 1986 and 1987 season with close ups (albeit black and white) of the jersey style that you may want to check out. In particular, does your jersey have a champion patch on either of the arms at all, or evidence of one have been removed? Also, make sure you carefully compare the monogram with your jersey versus the old pictures. Just my two cents.

[genius]

Beavisrules--here's an SI cover of Tim Brown wearing the same ND style in 1986, fishnet mesh body and sleeves, sewn patches, numbers on sleeves, etc. No Champion patch on mine but the fishnet holes on the sleeves are so large that it could easily be removed or lost without much evidence. I'm confident enough that this is legit, it's a one-year style that has fallen through the cracks because they were 5-6 or something like that in Holtz's first season. I remember watching Pitt play ND that year and thinking that the ND jerseys looked strange. One thing about this jersey is that someone could easily reverse all of the 8s and the 1s and then voila a Tim Brown gamer with an SI cover to back it up! Thanks!

[JasonHalliburton]

[TNTtoys]

I promised Abe I'd post photos of this one once it arrived...

[beavisrules]

Genius,

Look again at your SI cover jersey, particularly at the monograms on the arm. Now compare that to your jersey. Of note, look at the thickness of the monogram letters in your jersey vs the magazine cover, as well as the space between the monogram letters in your jersey (almost no visible jersey between the letters of the monogram) and the Brown jersey on the SI cover (jersey visible between the letters because they are skinny). The arms on that jersey are my concern. Also, I understand what you're saying about the champion patches, but champion affixed them to the jerseys really well - it wouldn't have been able to fall off without being ripped off.

Just my two cents and just trying to help - not trying to be a pain.

Happy Thanksgiving.

[kellsox]

Not all were picked up in November but the one with the crack through the trademark was used in the playoffs and most likely the World Series. The tar/dirt is so built up that its created its own layer on the handles-you can't see the wood.

[genius]

I do see that actually and it wouldn't be the first mistake I've ever made! But the mesh and the shoulder material match perfectly as well as the material-transition points so this jersey has to be something ND game-related. "1" font is identical, the shoulder "8"s close if not exact, front "8" does seem a bit different though. Maybe an earlier set or a practice jersey. From what I can tell 1986 was the only year Notre Dame had the huge fishnet mesh jerseys with the solid shoulders and both the number and the ND, so it will still look good on the wall! If anyone has more information to offer that would be great. Anyway, check out my "Bettis" ND lacrosse jersey! Just picked that one up as well, I think it's from 1990.

[JasonHalliburton]

I received a very nice pair of Jose Vidro Nationals game used batting gloves today. Show good use on them.

1978-80 San Francisco Giants game used alternate orange/black New Era hat.

Worn by catcher Dennis Littlejohn (and possibly worn prior to that by Mike Ivie)

I answered an ad here locally from a Giants fan who wanted to sell this. Hat is signed twice by Littlejohn. Scratched out number above the 47 is 15 (Ivie)

This might be a dumb question, but I have a good reason for asking. Would two players really have shared the same hat? I have a Pirates hat with both "21" and "7" marked inside it, Mears authenticated it as game-worn but said they couldn't say for sure that it was either Clemente or whoever #7 was, even though the hat is size 6 7/8 or 7 at most which is what Clemente wore. Thanks!

Here's my guess - Either Ivie wore the hat for the first part of the year and turned it in to get a newer looking one or....

Little john was called up in July. Perhaps they were scrambling to find him a hat to wear and Ivie let him borrow this one. Its not unusual to reissue equipment. I plan to write to both and ask.

Jim

PS - Giants fans - the hat is available if anyone's interested.....I'm not going to put a price on it but I'll listen to best offers.

[012562]

Hi Jim,

Wow, this is a blast from the past. I owned this cap and probably sold it 25 years ago. I cannot recall where I got it from or who it went to. I went back to my old records just now and noted that it was a New Era cap and there was no size tag left in this cap, and I also had noted it was 1978-1980, so I would guess I picked it up in 1980 or 1981. My guess is that it was probably given or issued to #15 Mike Ivie as a new cap, never worn, and then used by #47 Dennis Littlejohn. I also doubt a player would use a cap that had already been worn, but I suppose stranger things happen.

The reason I let the cap go is that I was able to obtain a Mike Ivie Giants cap from the Padres visiting clubhouse kid after the 1981 season that he had kept. It is also a New Era cap, and unfortunately, it is also missing the size tag. I still have this cap in my collection.

I sometimes have wondered where certain things went that I may have let go over the years. Probably the most unique item (but not the most valuable, that probably goes to a great Roberto Clemente game used batting helmet) is a Jim Rice cracked bat that was corked. My Dad was a physician, and one night after hours he had the technician X-ray the two bats I had that I thought might be corked. The Bill Buckner from the early 1970's turned out to have nothing. However, one of the two Rice bat X-rays clearly shows the "tube" through the barrel where the bat was corked. I sold the bat with the X-rays about the same time as the Littlejohn cap. I still see the name of the collector/dealer who bought it, but have never asked if he still has this item. What I thought was so unique about the Rice bat is that if he was using these in games, he never got caught. I recall seeing a loaded Dan Ford bat from the Angels before he was caught, and wish I had picked it up. A local collector had offered me the cracked bat.

Tom Duino

[Vintagedeputy]

Tom,

That is incredible that you remember having owned this cap previously. Was it autographed in the same manner?

The collector I purchased it from is a local guy here in Richmond, Va. He said that he was a Giants fan and bought the cap through an ad in SCD around 1984 or '85. He's had it ever since. Can you recall anything else about the cap?

Jim

Did you get that jersey at RFK, or at the team shop downtown? I remember seeing it, but can't remember which store.

GO NATIONALS!!

Hey Jason,

I picked it up at the Connecticut Avenue store.

No wonder I can't find any Nats stuff - too much competition! :)
