New pick-ups

Just a few pins I've picked up recently.

Hey Mike, you've got quite the nice Cubs pinback collection going. How are you displaying them?

I picked this Scrapps Sam Thompson up off of ebay last night:


Working on the set of 18...Only 15 more to go already have Comiskey so that's two of the 4 Hall of Famers out of the way.

Very cool pins...I wonder how many people knew off the top of their head that Dizzy Dean's real first name was Jerome (not me!)?

[sayhey24]

Love the pins too!

Dizzy's real name was Jay Hanna Dean. At some point he started telling sportswriters that his name was Jerome Herman Dean -- Jerome Herman being a childhood palymate who died at a young age.

Mike and Dan - Very nice pins and Scrapps.

Picked up this 1890s mask. Very happy with it - heavy wire, non-welded, and large size.

Joe, that's a good one. Nice and clean. Where'd you find it?

[HiNeighbor]

Here are a couple of new pieces that just came in. Thanks Chris and Pat if you're on here. Greg

Those are terrific pieces. Is the hat referring to Babe Ruth for sure? I'm not doubting it. I just haven't seen anything like it in the past. Where did they come from?

[slidekellyslide]

Could be Babe Didrickson-Zahara? But I doubt it.

Mike,

I tried sending a message to you, but it wouldn't go through. Would you have an email address?
