Day 1 - Huggins & Scott

To My Fellow Hobbyists, 

2010. Sounds almost like the title of a comic book I read as a kid. As we embark on a 

new decade, our entire staff at Huggins and Scott is looking forward to working with all of you to make this hobby we all love more enjoyable 

for everyone. With 2009 behind us, our plans for the upcoming year include a few changes requested by many of our bidders and consignors. 

First we are planning to run 5 auctions in 2010. They will end on the last Wednesday and Thursday of every odd month. Our May and 

September auctions will be a new format with many items that will sell in the $200-$500 range. Our March, July and November auctions will 

focus more on larger lots. For 2009 we tried a new style buyers premium scale for our 4 auctions. After reviewing all the feedback and results, 

we have decided this idea may have been ahead of its time, so for now we are returning to the industry standard of one buyers premium for all 

items--not to say we would be opposed to revisiting this concept in the future. Finally, with the National Convention in our hometown this 

year, we are planning several special promotions around the show for all our clients. Make sure you put the National in Baltimore on your 

schedule this summer, and we hope to meet and greet many of you at the show. 

With all that said once again our dedicated team has outdone itself in assembling this fantastic array of rare, unusual and even one-of-a-kind 

items. Dave Stoddard has added even more new features that continue to keep our site simple and user friendly while incorporating new and 

useful ideas. Our head writer Kevin Heffner and his staff of Randy (Country) Curtis, Mark Raines, James Feagin, and Matt Flores have detailed 

the items, while Collin Corbin and his staff have once again treated us to some stunning images. Mark Spinrad has swept the catalog for 

#@%#”s, and Josh Wulkan and Stefan Wisinski have given Mike Henry the “canvas and paint” he needs to create another masterpiece. 

Kris Fraley and Randy did another amazing sending out all the lots in a safe and timely manner. Great job guys!! Barry Malkin's eagle eyes have 

once again spotted some high-grade gems!! 

Our constantly growing nationwide staff of consignor reps (now at 37 strong), lead by the tireless Steve Dickler, have gathered together another 

fine assortment of “goodies.” Should you have items or an entire collection you are thinking about selling, a full list of our well-qualified and 

ready reps as well as contact info is available is this catalog. Call'm; you'll be surprised how much money they can put in your pocket. 

The ladies of Huggins and Scott Auctions: Nancy, Janet, Stef, Kristie, Brooke, Greta, Gail, Allison, Samantha and our newest edition Carrie 

Heffner always get their own Paragraph of Thanks for putting up with our late hours and countless phone calls. 

Our final and foremost thanks always goes to you, our consignors and bidders. From A to Z in both categories you continue to amaze us with 

the material you turn up and the integrity with which you conduct yourselves in all aspects of our dealings. The friendships we have made out 

of the trust you have placed in us are immeasurable, and for that we are always grateful. 

I hope you enjoy our latest catalog and feel free to call us anytime with questions, comments or suggestions. 

Good Luck

WEBSITE: W W W. H U G G I N S A N D S C OTT. C O M 

Here's how we are running our March 24-25, 2010 

auction: 

BIDDING BEGINS: 

Sunday Ma rch 7th, 2010 at 4:00pm Eastern Ti m e 

Our auction was designed years ago and still remains geared 

toward affordable vintage items for the serious collector. We 

describe and photograph each item in the most clear and 

easy to understand way possible. However, WE LOVE 

QUESTIONS! Call us anytime locally at 301-608-0355 or 

toll free at 1-866-462-2273. Always leave a message if you 

get our machine. It's always the first thing we check everyday. 

REGISTRATION: 

You must pre-register to bid. You can do this over the 

phone on our toll free number (1-866-462-2273) or online 

at www.hugginsandscott.com. Our local phone number is 

301-608-0355. Should you choose the online method and 

have any problems, please call us for assistance. Our normal 

business hours are Monday-Saturday 11-6p, Sunday 12-5p 

Eastern Time. 

Once registered you will need to confirm your email 

address by following the link in the confirmation email that 

is automatically sent to your email address that you register 

with. At the time of registration, you will create a User ID 

and Password, that you are responsible for; you will use that 

same User ID and Password every time you log into our site 

for this and all future auctions. Bidding is done online or 

by telephone. 

ALL TIMES ARE EASTERN STANDARD TIME 

3-STEP BIDDING PROCESS: 

STEP 1) Initial Bids 

You must place an acceptable, initial bid on an item by 9:00 

pm on the night the item ends, in order to proceed to 

STEP 2. A way to check if your bid was accepted is to go to 

“My Bid List”. If the item you bid on is listed there, you are 

in. You can now sort your bid list by which lots you hold 

the current high bid for, and which lots you have been outbid 

on. IF YOU HAVE NOT PLACED A BID ON AN 

ITEM BEFORE 9:00 pm EST (on the night the item 

ends), YOU CANNOT BID ON THAT ITEM AFTER 

9:00 pm EST, in the extended bidding session (STEP 2). 

However, at 9:00 pm on Mar 24th, if you are the only bidder 

on an item that ends on Mar 24th, that item will close 

and you will be declared the winner. We cannot stress 

enough; you will want to get your bids in early. For example, 

once you get your catalog, if you were to place a bid 

(even if you get outbid by another bidder) on every item 

that you are interested in, you are good to go and will be 

allowed to bid in the last 2 hours of the auction on both 

nights, without the possibility of being shutout. 

STEP 2) Extended Bidding Session 

Between 9:00 pm and 11:00 pm is our “extended bidding 

session”. This period of bidding is getting you ready for the 

end. You are welcome to continue placing bids on any item 

that you have previously bid on, but you may not jump in 

on a new item during this time. 

STEP 3) Unique Auction Ending Style 

Now adopted by most major auction houses; You're 

Welcome! Years ago, for some unknown reason, most other 

auction houses adopted the procedure to end entire auctions 

all at one time. Our way is much more bidder friendly. 

Here's how it works: Bidders have our catalog for 

roughly two weeks prior to the auction's end, giving them 

ample opportunity to place an initial bid before 9:00 pm on 

the item's end date. Lots will then begin closing at 

11:30pm on their respective end dates. If only one bid has 

been received and the clock strikes 9:00pm, the lot will officially 

close and the lone bidder will be declared the winner. 

If there have been two or more bids on a particular item, 

that item will remain open until 30 minutes have passed 

without any additional bids on that item. A 30-minute 

timer is provided for each lot and will be automatically reset 

every time a new bid is made on that lot. If you up your 

own high bid in the last 30-minutes, the 30-minute clock 

will NOT reset. Bids on items will continue to be accepted 

between 9:00 pm and 11:00 pm from any bidder that has 

4 HU G G I N S & SC OT T AU C T I O N: MA RC H 24-25, 2010 1.866.462.2273

id on the item prior to 9:00 pm (Extended Bidding 

Session). Based on these rules, no lot with two or more 

bids prior to 9:00 pm can close prior to 11:30 pm EST. 

Here are some examples: 

a) Two bidders named A & B are the only two who have 

bid on Lot 420 prior to 9:00 pm on the day that the lot 

ends. Only Bidders A & B can bid on Lot 420 after 9:00 

pm. At 11:00 pm, Bidder A was the high bidder on Lot 

420. If no one else bids before 11:30 pm, Bidder A will 

win the auction. If, however, Bidder B bids again at 

11:27pm, the new end time for Lot 420 is 11:57 pm, giving 

Bidder A another 30 minutes to raise his bid. No other 

auction lots are affected by A & B's bidding on Lot 420. 

b) If Bidder A was the only bidder on Lot 420 at 9:00 pm, 

he automatically wins the lot at 11:00pm. 

This format accomplishes two very bidder-friendly things: it 

prevents snipers, as once you bid the clock resets for 30 

minutes even if you bid with 1 second left. Also, it allows 

people to know they have won an item without having to 

wait for every item in the auction to close. 

We are sure that once you read and use this bidder-friendly 

Auction Ending style, you'll appreciate, as we do, that it is 

just “a better mousetrap.” However should you have any 

BIDDING INCREMENTS: 

If the current bid is: The Bid increment is 

$50 - $249 $10.00 

$250 - $499 $25.00 

$500 - $999 $50.00 

$1,000 - $2,499 $100.00 

$2,500 - $4,999 $250.00 

$5,000 - $9,999 $500.00 

$10,000 - $24,999 $1,000.00 

$25,000 - $49,999 $2,500.00 

$50,000 - $99,999 $5,000.00 

$100,000 - $249,999 $10,000.00 

$250,000 - $499,999 $25,000.00 

questions about this procedure, PLEASE call us on our 

local or toll free number. 

A few examples for those of you that may not understand: 

a) If an item has an opening bid of $200 and does not have 

a bid, you can click on the drop box and you have the 

option at bidding $200, $210, $220, $230, $240, $250, 

$275, $300, $325, $350, $375, $400, $425, $450, $475, 

$500, $550, $600 and so on. 

b) If an item's bid currently stands at $1800, your options 

for bidding are $1900, $2000, $2100, $2200, $2300, 

$2400, $2500, $2750, $3000 and so on. 

Let's say an item currently stands at $750. You enter a max 

bid of $850 and the system comes back and says that you've 

been outbid and the current bid is now $850. Simply, this 

means that the other bidder's max was also $850, that they 

placed BEFORE YOU PLACED YOUR BID, and one 

more bid will make you the current high bidder. You can 

enter the next acceptable bid of $900 and you will be the 

current high bid. 

PAYMENT OPTIONS 

We accept personal checks, business checks, money orders, 

bank checks, and cash. We WILL NOT accept credit cards 

or Paypal for auction items (unless pre-authorized before 

the auction ends. Call for details). 

FOLLOWING THE AUCTION 

We will send winning bidders an email as well as written 

invoices the week following the auction. Payment is requested 

within 15 business days from the end of the auction. 

Extremely late or non-payments may result in the revocation 

of bidding privileges for future auctions. Please note: 

when you bid on an item, you are entering a legally binding 

contract, indicating that you will pay for your items, plus 

the buyers' premium and any additional associated fees 

(sales tax, shipping, insurance, collection agency fees, etc...). 

You are responsible for any and all bids placed with your 

User ID and password. We WILL sell your debt to a collection 

agency if you fail to make payment. 

MORE ABOUT OUR AUCTION 

1) All items are sold to the highest bidder. 

2) Buyer's Premium and Sales Tax - Please note our 

BUYERS PREMIUM is 17-1/2% of the hammer price. 

This means if an item sells for $1000, the winning bidder 

will pay ($1175.00 plus shipping, handling and insurance). 

This is added to the item before any sales tax (6%), 

which is applicable to all Maryland residents ONLY! 

3) Shipping - Is the buyer's responsibility. We will work 

with you on larger lots to find the best way. All items must 

be fully paid for, including shipping and insurance, before 

they will be sent out. We strongly encourage any local bidders 

to pick up their winnings at our Office or at the House 

of Cards. 

4) Return Policy - ALL LEGITIMATE RETURNS OR 

CREDIT REQUESTS MUST BE BROUGHT TO OUR 

ATTENTION WITHIN 30 DAYS OF RECEIPT OF 

YOUR ITEMS! AFTER 30 DAYS, THERE ARE NO 

REFUNDS, EXCHANGES OR CREDITS! ALSO, THE 

ENTIRE LOT MUST BE INTACT IN ORDER TO 

RECEIVE ANY CREDIT OR REFUND CONSIDERA- 

TIONS - NO EXCEPTIONS!! 

We have conservatively graded most items, however we 

strongly encourage you to ask specific questions or better 

yet, come view the items you are interested in. If you are 

unsure of anything, ask, then bid. We reserve the right to 

make any changes from the print catalog on our website. 

Any changes that are made, we will notify all who have 

placed bids on that item by email. 

5) Bidding Privileges - Huggins and Scott LLC reserves the 

right to revoke any bidder privileges for what we deem as 

unethical behavior.

PLEASE NOTE: Once a bid is placed, we CANNOT 

retract it. We have two safeguards to make sure that you are 

aware of the bid that you are placing, and which lot you are 

bidding on. Bid retraction will result in cancellation of all 

bids in the auction and bidding privileges revoked. WE 

CANNOT COMPROMISE THE INTEGRITY OF THE 

AUCTION BY CANCELLING BIDS. 

6) Previewing Items Before the Auction - All items are 

available for viewing at our auction offices: 900 Silver 

Spring Ave, Silver Spring, MD 20910. Calling in advance 

for an appointment is strongly SUGGESTED. We ask that 

you provide a list of the items that you want to examine, so 

we may have them ready for you. No appointments will be 

allowed on March 24-25, 2010. 

7) All bids are in US Dollars! 

8) When we refer to a population report about graded 

cards, we only reference the population of that card's grading 

company. For example, if we say an SGC card has three 

equals and none better, we are only referring to that card's 

population among all SGC graded cards, unless otherwise 

stated. All population counts are valid as of the time of 

writing and are subject to change. 

About Our Autographs: 

All autographs sold thru Huggins & Scott Auctions come 

with either a JSA- James Spence Authentication (our most 

used), PSA/DNA, Upper Deck Authenticated (UDA), 

Stacks of Plaques, Kevin Keating or Steiner COA's. Some 

even have more than one. At Huggins & Scott, we take 

great pride in only offering "IRONCLAD", "LEAD PIPE", 

"NO QUESTIONS ASKED" autographs. In today's world 

of autopens, secretarial, clubhouse and ghost signers, you 

can rest assured that your autographed items from H&S 

have passed the most stringent examination. 

Note: For those that do not know, a "clubhouse" signature 

was a common practice among teams where the key players 

would not actually sign the item, but a clubhouse attendant 

would sign for the player. We note any signature that is a 

clubhouse signature. 

LOA, MAY CONTAIN A SMALL SMATTERING OF 

CLUBHOUSE, SECRETARIAL OR PRE-PRINTED 

AUTOGRAPHS. THESE ARE PART OF THE LOT 

AND ARE NON-RETURNABLE OR REFUNDABLE. 

About Our Grading: 

Many lots, throughout the auction have been Professionally 

graded and encapsulated by independent grading companies. 

Our highly educated writers have graded many other 

lots. For the most part, these are conservative grades, but we 

are human and sometimes we may miss something. We 

strongly recommend that you come look at any items that 

you are bidding on, and make your own determination 

about its grade. 

Becoming one of Our Field Representatives: 

Huggins and Scott Auctions is a constantly growing company. 

Since our last auction (December 2009), we have added 

more staff (now 37 total). Should you have an interest in 

joining our staff, we are always looking for part-time field 

representatives in new areas. Call our head of Field 

Representatives, Steve Dickler at 215-530-4365 to discuss 

an opportunity; its a no lose situation for you, as well as a 

chance to make some serious money. 

Consignments For Our Next Auction: 

We have already begun taking consignments for our next 

May 2010 auction. By consigning your items early, you 

allow us the opportunity to advertise your items on our 

website, in trade publications and press releases, as well as at 

major shows across the country. This is an invaluable way to 

expose your items to our thousands of current bidders and 

possible new bidders, who can then plan ahead to bid on 

your items. Believe me, it happens! 

We are always looking for unique Americana items to try in 

our catalog. Even if you have something you don't see (primarily 

1960s's and older, though), feel free to call us and 

discuss it. You may have a pile of gold that's just hidden 

under a little dust, or needs the right exposure! 

Contact one of our representatives to discuss the sale or 

consignments of your cards and other treasures. 

Multiple Autographed Item Lot LOA's: On lots with more 

than one autographed item, we will issue one blanket auction 

letter of authenticity for the entire lot. This is the original 

letter that we receive from the authentication company 

describing the offered lot. This is the only way that these 

lots can be sold through any auction house; rest assured 

though, the lots have been thoroughly examined, in detail, 

to assure their authenticity. Issuing individual letters for 

each autographed item would not be possible, in terms of 

cost. You may use the original auction LOA to obtain individual 

LOA's should you chose to do that. Please call if you 

have any questions regarding these auction lot LOA's. 

ONE VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: CERTAIN LOTS 

THAT CONTAIN A LARGER NUMBER OF AUTO- 

GRAPHED PIECES, WHILE ACCOMPANIED BY A

“THE GODFATHER” 

1. Original Godfather Script Signed by (10) 

Important Cast Members 

”Leave the gun; take the cannoli,” is easily one of the most quoted 

lines from “The Godfather” (1972); the line is so simple, so straight 

forward, so typically Italian, but that is not how it was written in the 

original script. Scripts evolve as the actors, writers, producers and 

directors integrate ideas with personal experiences to create art. Rarely 

does this art become the masterpiece that is The Godfather. J o h n n y 

Martino was one of many contributors that helped transform the original 

script into the finished product. 

Presented is one of only a handful of known original scripts fromT h e 

G o d f a t h e r. Sources approximate that twenty-two were made and fewer 

survive. The script is a remarkable American artifact and comes from 

the original owner, actor Johnny Martino, who played Paulie Gatto in 

the movie. The multitude of stories about the filming of The Godfather are at times exaggerated, even 

mythical, but the following first-person accounts shed light on why and how Francis Ford Coppola was 

able to create such an authentic tale. Start with Johnny Martino reading for the part of Paulie; that day in 

Los Angeles Martino read with Gary Marshall (as Clemenza), and his strong Italian roots helped get him 

the role over men like Robert DeNiro and Jerry Orbach. Once he arrived in New York City for filming, 

M a r t i n o ’s presence on the set and his influence on the entire film was quickly felt; he was even Al Pacino’s 

Italian tutor. In a scene where the character Paulie was to drive a stick shift, Coppola asked him if he could 

drive around the block, so Coppola could see how good Martino drove the vintage 1941 car. When in the 

c a r, Coppola asked Martino about the “in and outs” of the mafia scene in New York and Brooklyn. Martino, 

who was born in Brooklyn in 1937 to Italian-born parents, became a highly influential and valued asset. 

Simple changes and “adlibs” in the script became apparent once filming began. In the opening scene of the movie (the wedding of Connie and Carlo) Clemenza and 

Paulie were talking about how much money was in the silk purse on Connie’s arm, and the line was originally written, “Who knows? Maybe more. Tw e n t y, thirty 

grand in small bills in that silk purse, Holy Toledo, if this was somebody else’s wedding!” But the term “Holy Toledo” was not authentic to a mobster from Brooklyn, 

so Martino adlibbed the line and said “Madone Sfortunato” (loose translation, God that’s unfortunate). Martino’s most famous scene (and his last scene in the movie) 

starts on page 54 of the script at Clemenza’s home where Paulie, Rocco and Clemenza take a drive to look for safe houses. On page 58, Paulie gets “whacked” and 

C l e m e n z a ’s line was supposed to be “Leave the gun,” but once again Martino’s influence was once again used as Clemenza added, “Take the cannoli.” 

The actual script is in excellent, albeit used, condition. It has a maroon, faux leather cover and is bound with brass braids, measuring 8x11. The interior pages are crisp 

and clean with only a few markings on some of Martino’s lines. The most important of all is the title page where (10) signatures from prime characters in the movie 

a p p e a r. The signatures include Al Pacino (Michael Corleone), Marlon Brando (secretarial, Vito Corleone), Al Martino (d.2009, Johnny Fontane), Robert Duvall (To m 

Hagen), Alex Rocco (Moe Green), Francis Ford Coppola (director, screenplay writer), James Caan (Sonny Corleone), Gianni Russo (Carlo Rizzi), Fred Gallo (assistant 

director) and Johnny Martino (Paulie Gatto). All signatures appear in blue or black ink, save the Brando, which is in black marker, and grade in the (“8-9”) range. T h e 

(9) ink signatures were obtained, by Martino, at the 1997 25th Anniversary gala in San Francisco. The Marlon Brando signature has its own story. In late 1998, 

Martino returned to Columbia Studios where his personal friend and the head of post-production called in nephew Miko Brando (son of Marlon) and requested the 

script to be signed by the Hollywood icon. Miko returned two hours later with the script signed and only recently has it proven to be a secretarial by industry experts. 

The autographs on the script come with a pair of full photo LOAs; one from PSA/DNA and one from James Spence Authentications (JSA). To attest to the authenticity 

of the script (and not the signatures) are a letter from John Martino, his own personally signed biography sheet, and a signed headshot photograph. Martino had a special 

leather folder made for this monumental script that has an appliquéd overlay that reads, “The Godfather – Paulie Gatto – John Martino.”

The 

Ohio native is 

pictured on 

this antiquity, 

which was 

released during 

a season in 

which the Hall 

of Famer 

amassed a 

remarkable .500 on-base percentage. The crease-free example displays 

moderate corner and edge wear along with light color fading on the 

obverse. The pitch-black reverse displays typical perimeter chipping which 

does not adversely affect the visual appeal. As one of only (23) Delehanty 

specimens to have been assessed by the third-party authenticator, this card 

of the Phillies slugger is a sure-fire winner. 


18. 1911 D304 Brunners Bread Ty Cobb PSA 3 

With trusty bat in tow and a grimace that would make any opposing hurler shirk, the feisty 

Ty Cobb is brilliantly captured on this 1911 D304 Brunners Breads example. Graded VG 3 

by PSA, this “series of 25” subject was released under the General Baking banner of Buffalo, 

New York. Only seven total Brunners Bread Cobb examples have been judged by the thirdparty 

grading service. This crease-free cornerstone portrays Cobb in his classic batting stance 

as he emerges from the alluring burnt orange background. Slight chipping on the upper left 

corner along with incidental edge discoloration does not detract from Cobb’s detailed illustration. 

The advertising back features bold green printing with mild discoloration on the upper 

portion of the reverse. With the premier coupling of Hall of Fame player and elusive regional 

series, this near century-old cardboard will headline any advanced pre-war gathering. 


19. 1909 E90-1 American Caramel Addie Joss PSA 3.5 

Graded VG+ 3.5 by PSA. Just two years before his untimely death in 1911, Addie 

Joss is portrayed on this gorgeous 1909 E90-1 American Caramel horizontal card. 

This elusive antiquity is crease-free with modest peripheral wear, inconsequential surface 

discoloration and a clean advertising reverse. For those attempting this colorful 

candy series, this mid-grade Hall of Fame hurler is definitely “one to get.”

Graded 30 Good 2 by SGC with confirmed provenance from the legendary Frank Nagy collection. The “Christian 

Gentleman” commands the offered 1910 Williams Caramel E103 Christy Mathewson example with a comely comb 

over and visual appeal difficult to match. This scarce representation is one of five Mathewson specimens at the grading tier with only two better. The tasty caramel treat was released by 

the Oxford, Pennsylvania confectioner on a very limited regional basis—and as such, is a coveted portrayal of the Hall of Famer. This century-old cardboard appears to have been 

harshly graded, as this “Matty” is free of surface creasing or imperfections on the blank reverse. Even corner rounding and askew centering relegates the card to its technical assessment. 

The crisp illustration is prominently set against a pomegranate red backdrop. This Bucknell alumnus is essential for the discerning pre-war collector.

21. 1909 S74 Silks (White) Ty Cobb SGC 84 with Red Sun 

Advertising Back 

Few superlatives adequately express the grandeur of this high-grade 1909 S74 (White) silk Ty 

Cobb with an incredibly scarce Red Sun advertising back, graded 84 NM 7 by SGC. Upon 

close examination, it is difficult to conceive that this pre-war antiquity has surpassed the century 

mark in age. Absent are the folds, fraying, or surface blemishes that usually accompany 

similar silks. The imposing illustration of the Georgia Peach is well defined and properly centered. 

The reverse is equally impressive, as the tightly affixed paper backing boldly confirms 

Louisiana’s Red Sun Cigarettes as the sponsor. This is not only the highest graded S74 Silk 

(White) to have surfaced in the hobby, but also possibly a unique Hall of Fame subject/advertising 

back combination ideal for the advanced connoisseur of the finest pre-war material.

Interestingly, this keepsake is postmarked from Detroit just three 

days prior to Cobb playing in his first World Series contest. The typed 

name of the addressee, slight surface discoloration, postmarkings, which 

protrude the obverse to the right of Cobb, and negligible creasing accounts 

for the technical assessment.

63. 1952 Topps #311 Mickey 

Mantle Rookie PSA 8 (oc) 

Given the name of his father’s idol, Mickey 

Charles Mantle was a baseball prodigy who 

signed with the New York Yankees in 1949 

at the age of seventeen. As he rapidly 

advanced through the minor leagues, the 

switch-hitting Mantle was quickly aproclaimed 

DiMaggio’s heir apparent and the 

“greatest prospect in baseball history. ” 

Such pressure would cause most to wilt 

under bright lights of the “Big A p p l e . ” 

H o w e v e r, despite early growing pains, the 

stout Oklahoman terrorized A m e r i c a n 

League pitching for more than eighteen 

seasons. Peering into his Hall of Fame 

future, Mantle is showcased on this incomparable 

1952 Topps #311 rookie card. 

Graded NM-MT 8 by PSA with an (oc) 

q u a l i f i e r, this high number originated from 

an early Alan Rosen “find.” As one of the 

most coveted cards in the industry with 

immense cultural crossover appeal, this 

“Commerce Comet” meets all of the criteria 

for the discerning hobbyist. A c c e n t u a t e d 

by precise registration, the young slugger 

e m e rges from a penetrating blue backdrop. 

The gleaming white perimeter and bold 

color detailing give the appearance of having 

been recently unearthed from a wax 

pack. The problem-free reverse details 

M a n t l e ’s accolades with crisp red-andblack 

printing. Left justified factory centering 

accounts for the qualifier. With 536 

career home runs and a charisma that is difficult 

to match, this important Mantle is a 

permanent keepsake for baseball historians 

and Americana collectors alike. 


64. 1951 Bowman #253 Mickey Mantle Rookie PSA 5.5 

Graded EX+ 5.5 by PSA. Pre-dating the acclaimed 1952 Topps #311 version by a year, this 1951 

Bowman #253 Mickey Mantle is the “true” rookie card of the legendary slugger. This horizontal high 

number is crease-free and displays strong corners and edges. Despite modest centering issues, the 

“Commerce Comet” gleams with precise registration and penetrating background hues. The biographical 

reverse is clean and serves as a prelude for the Hall of Fame glory to come. An instantly recognizable 

centerpiece that will headline any classic Bowman collection. 


65. 1952 Bowman #101 Mickey Mantle PSA 7.5 

Graded NM+ 7.5 by PSA. Having firmly established himself in the vaunted Yankee lineup, a youthful 

Mickey Mantle is featured on the offered 1952 Bowman #101 example. Although overshadowed by the inaugural 

Topps version, this Bowman Mantle is still quite impressive. Gleaming white borders, a well-defined 

perimeter, and precise registration are all positive attributes of this 57-year-old classic. The reverse is free of 

typical wax staining, and the card is properly centered. Slight corner touches account for the technical evaluation.

86. 1912 S110 Baseball Silk Pillowcase with Cobb, 

Speaker & Mathewson 

An impressive array of baseball royalty is found with the offered 1912 S110 pillowcase 

tobacco premium which features five star players. This exceptional fabric could only be 

obtained via mail in exchange for coupons packaged with the Helmar and Turkey Red 

tobacco brands. The approximately 22-1/2 x 22-1/2 collectible has matted dimensions 

of 26-1/2 x 25. Included is a centered portrayal of Christy Mathewson, with “Home 

Run” Baker, Tris Speaker, Ty Cobb, and Marty O’Toole surrounding the pitcher. T h e 

illustrations of the ballplayers have endured the century quite well with bright colors 

and crisp red stitching. It appears as if the fabric was washed at some point, as some of 

the original sheen is absent. Varying degrees of age-induced toning is also evident on 

the Baker, Cobb, O’Toole and Speaker depictions. A d d i t i o n a l l y, the matting is adhered 

to the perimeter with double-sided tape. The pillowcase was a premier prize in a promotional 

campaign which included other silks and the L1 Leather series. The fortunate 

winner will be a victor many times over as they relish this ready-to-frame keepsake.

Trimmed to

with (7) 

SGC 

Presented is perhaps 

the most 

unusual 1933 

Goudey complete 

set of (240) cards. 

Not only does this 

full edition with 

(65) Hall of 

Famers include the 

n e a r- i m p o s s i b l e 

#106 Lajoie shortprint, 

each card has 

also been trimmed 

to the colored borders 

by an over 

zealous previous 

o w n e r. For purposes 

of authentication, 

seven cards 

are graded 

“Authentic” by SGC. Those include #53 Ruth (minor paper loss), #92 Gehrig, #106 L a j o i e (moderate creasing), #144 Ruth (creasing), #149 Ruth (creasing), #160 Gehrig (creasing) 

and #181 Ruth. Outside of the meticulous trimming, approximately 50% of the cards reveal varying degrees of creasing, incidental soiling along with sixteen instances of surface 

paper loss or writing. Only #2 Vance, #222 Gehringer and #223 Dean have sustained back damage among the ungraded key cards. Outside of the 1909-11 T206 White Borders 

set, the 1933 Goudey series is perhaps the most widely collected pre-war set in hobby history. While unaltered complete editions with the coveted Lajoie have fetched upwards of 

six figures, this lower tier offering is still a “once in a lifetime” opportunity for the pre-war set collector. One of only a few 240-card editions known to exist.

Presentation 

Set of (576) 

Cards 

Long before factory 

sets were available for 

public purchase, 

esteemed colleagues, 

friends and employees 

of Topps were awarded 

limited edition 

“presentation” sets. 

The offered 1963 

Topps Baseball complete 

edition of (576) 

cards was given to our 

consignor who worked 

as the Executive 

Secretary for Sy 

Berger, “the father of 

the modern baseball 

card.” This crisp edition 


condition breakdown of 30% (NM or better), 30% (EX-MT), 20% (EX) and 

20% (VG-EX or lesser) with the high numbers grading slightly lesser. Due to storing 

methods in the five accompanying display boxes (average EX, one of which 

displays fraying), the majority of cards are slightly bowed and, when viewed as a 

whole, contain moderate toning on the edges due to aging. Approximately 10-15% 

of the cards also exhibit askew centering or are miscut. Highlights include #18 

Buc Blasters/Clemente (EX-MT), #25 Kaline (NM), #120 Maris (EX-MT), #138 

Mays/Musial (EX-MT), #173 Tresh/Mantle/Richardson (EX-MT), #200 Mantle

Presented in its entirety, including three PSA graded examples, this 1971 Topps

Jackson RC (PSA 6), #480 Seaver (EX, presents NM-MT with exception to print

127. 1955 Esskay Meats Bob Alexander Complete Box 

Originating from a tiny community nestled on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, this previously unknown 1955 Esskay Meats Bob Alexander complete box is a sight to 

behold. This “hot dog” collectible is only the second Esskay complete box (and first Alexander card) to be offered for public sale and the first since the pioneering 

September 2006 Huggins and Scott find. Unlike the previous year, when two players were featured on the boxes, the 1955 packaging displayed a redemption coupon 

that was more valuable to the kids than keeping the box intact, adding to the ultimate scarcity of this relic. The cardboard packaging has weathered the years nicely 

while exhibiting multiple instances of light creasing and scant surface blemishes. Each tab has sustained moderate wear including the upper left which is separated. 

The portrait of Alexander contains a pair of surface creases along the right edge. The difficulty of locating just a single card from the 1955 Esskay series is an achievement 

in and of itself. However, the prospect of locating an entire box with the fun baseball-oriented graphics and redemption coupon is spectacular. A “once in a lifetime” 

opportunity to own the 1955 Esskay Bob Alexander in this form. 



128. 1954 

Esskay Meats 

Clint 

Courtney/Sam 

Mele Panel 

While securing quality 

singles from the coveted 

1954 Esskay Meats 

series can be a daunting 

task, the prospect of 

obtaining a high-grade 

panel is nearly impossible. 

Having escaped the 

scissors of an overzealous 

youngster, the 

offered 1954 Esskay 

Meats Clint 

Courtney/Sam Mele 

panel is an impressive 

discovery. This creasefree 

artifact is accurately 

cut with undisturbed 

“heads and shoulders” 

portraits. The bright 

orange boundary 

between Mele and 

Courtney adds a colorful 

dimension to the 

regional cardboard. The 

condition-sensitive surfaces 

display typical 

wax coatings, while the 

reverse concedes a 

minor crease, which 

does not protrude onto 

the obverse. While 

numerous superlatives 

and flowery adjectives could be added, this “hot dog” cornerstone is an instance 

where the picture “does the talking.” 


129. 1955 Felin’s Franks Whit Wyatt 

Complete Panel SGC 40—Only SGC 

Graded 

Arguably the most elusive of the fifties “hot dog” issues, 

very few examples from this Philadelphia-based 1955 

Felin’s Franks series have surfaced, and when they have, 

most are crudely cut and in lower grade. Graded 40 VG 3 

by SGC, the offered Whit Wyatt is an exception to the 

rule, as this regional issue is preserved as a complete 

panel. A total of nine copies from this elusive series have 

been judged by both SGC and PSA, with the offered specimen 

being the lone Wyatt to have been evaluated by 

SGC. Barely touched corners and a minor surface crease 

which traces from the middle left edge toward the right 

cheek of the hurler’s face serves as the only significant 

flaw. Typical surface discoloration is found on the otherwise 

problem-free reverse. Having the possibility of being 

scarcer than the coveted contemporary Esskay and Briggs 

Meats issues, this example is the ultimate type card.

130. 1954 

Esskay 

Meats 

Clint 

Courtney 

with 

Extensive 

Orange 

Bordering 

While 1954 

Esskay Meats 

samples are 

highly coveted 

prizes in any 

condition, 

specimens that 

display extensive 

orange 

bordering are 

incredibly 

desirable. The 

offered 1954 

Esskay Meats 

Clint Scrap 

Iron Courtney 

is at the top of 

the heap with 

ample orange 

trimming along 

the perimeter. 

This scarcity 

displays mild surface creasing along with typical hot dog grease markings on the 

reverse. Despite those flaws, this inaugural Oriole card exhibits impressive surface 

coloring and precise registration. One of the more attractive Esskay Meats cards 

offered for public sale. 



131. 1954 

Esskay 

Meats Neil 

Berry High- 

Grade with 

Orange 

Borders 

Although he had 

only nine career 

at-bats for the 

expansion 

Baltimore 

Orioles, Neil 

Berry is immortalized 

on this 

high-grade 1954 

Esskay Meats 

issue. This 

regional relic is 

highlighted by 

ample orange 

advertising trim 

along the upper 

and left edge. The 

crease-free early 

Oriole was meticulously 

culled 

from the original 

box and exhibits 

attributes of an 

(EX to EX-MT) 

sample. The 

reverse displays typical hot dog grease markings along with a light crease, which does 

not protrude onto the obverse. In previous Huggins and Scott auctions, two similar 

Berry examples have approached or surpassed five figures. This upper-tier scarcity 

presents as well as, if not better than, previous offerings. 


132. 1955 Esskay Meats Bob Young with Orange Bordering 

One of the more difficult cards from the 1955 Esskay Meats series is found with the offered Bob Young 

example. The light hitting Maryland native is evenly cut with traces of original orange bordering visible 

along three edges. An upper edge wrinkle is well concealed on Young’s period Orioles cap. The blank 

reverse displays expected hot dog grease markings. Of the numerous Esskay Meats samples to have been 

auctioned by Huggins and Scott, this is the first Young to have surfaced. 


133. 1954 New York Journal-American Near Set of (50/59) Cards with 

PSA 6 Mantle 

Featured is a seldom-offered 1954 New York Journal-American near set of (50/59) cards. Only representatives 

from New York’s three big league squads are found in this regional issue. The condition breakdown 

follows: 30% (EX-MT or better), 30% (EX), 20% (VG-EX) and 20% (VG or lesser). Highlights include 

Berra (EX-MT), Campanella (VG), Ford (EX), Hodges (VG-EX), Irvin (NM), Mantle (PSA 6), Reese (VG), 

Rizzuto (EX), J. Robinson (PSA 5), Snider (VG-EX) and Wilhelm (VG). For a complete list of key and 

missing cards, please visit our website. 



134. 1948 Gunther Beer/Arch McDonald Postcard 

Christman/DiFani—Uncatalogued 

Obtained only by correspondence with Arch McDonald (radio voice of the 

Washington Senators), the offered 1948 Gunther Beer Washington Senators postcard 

of Christman/DiFani is an uncatalogued treasure. The reverse displays a 

printed message from McDonald, while the post cancelled collectible is dated to 

April 1948. With exception to the post markings, a portion of which protrudes 

onto the obverse, the cardboard otherwise grades in (VG to EX) condition with 

moderate perimeter touches. So rare is this issue that the first three issues of the 

Sports Collector’s Bible listed the set and contents different each year and finally, 

by the fourth printing of the guide, the publishers removed the set all together 

due to lack of information. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first (and 

finest) example offered to the public in the last decade. 


135. 1950 Royal Dessert 

Stars Partial Set (15/24) 

A formidable rotation of baseball royalty 

is found with the offered 1950 Royal 

Dessert Stars partial set of (15/24) 

cards. These singles were pared from 

boxes of Royal Dessert product and are 

found in different sizes. The majority of 

these cards present in (VG to EX) condition 

with superficial creasing and 

clean blank backs. Additionally, the 

majority display relatively even scissor 

cuts. Included are #1 Musial, #2 Reese, 

#3 Kell, #4 D. DiMaggio, #5 Spahn, 6- 

9, #10 Thomson, #11 Rizzuto, 12, 15 

#16 Appling and 17.

Playing 

Tips Test 

Cards— 

SGC 60 

Distributed 

locally in 1952, 

Coca-Cola’s 

“Playing Tips” 

test cards were 

limited to three 

Phil Rizzuto 

versions and 

one Willie 

Mays. Graded 

60 EX 5 by 

SGC, this Mays 

example is in a 

class by itself 

for a couple of 

reasons. First, 

the colorful 

placard is 

among highest 

reported of any 

such graded 

example. 

Additionally, 

the Mays test 

card features 

biographical content on the reverse, rather than the customary “playing tips.” Minor 

edge and corner wear accounts for the technical assessment. Listing the Giants home 

schedule (which included no fewer than seven scheduled twinbills), the front succeeds 

in catching the eye with a colorful image of a smiling Mays with a billboard-like 

proclamation of “Coke is a Natural!” ... and so is this collectible.

three annual 

issues, the 1954 

Milwaukee 

Braves are 

depicted on the 

offered complete 

set of (35) 

cards. With 

exception to 

age-induced 

toning due to 

storing methods 

in the accompanying 

poster 

and obverse 

foxing, these 

cards average 

in (EX-MT to 

NM) condition. 

Keys include 

Aaron, 

Mathews, 

Spahn and Thomson SP. An additional Logan example (GD) is also present. The 

scarce 21-1/2 x 31 poster display in which these cards were housed grades (GD) with 

a combination of wear that includes perimeter tearing, pin holes and fraying.

138. 1953-54 Briggs Meats 

Hank Bauer 

Known for his postseason success as 

both a player and manager, Hank Bauer 

was the epitome of the “clutch” performer. 

This 1953-54 Briggs Meats Hank 

Bauer regional card depicts the Illinois 

native as a member of the Yankees. The 

obverse displays (VG to EX) characteristics 

with a slight surface crease and relatively 

clean scissor cut. Traces of the 

original red bordering are located along 

three edges, while the blank reverse is 

problem free. 


139. 1953-54 Briggs 

Meats Jim Busby 

Veteran outfielder Jim Busby is the 

subject of the offered 1953-54 

Briggs Meats type. This tough 

regional issue is accentuated by portions 

of the original red bordering 

along the left edge. Barely distinguishable 

creasing is concealed by 

penetrating surface hues. Typical 

grease markings do not detract from 

the impressive visual appeal. 



John Dixon 

Add some depth to your regional type 

card gathering with this 1953-54 Briggs 

Meats John Dixon. The card of the hurler 

displays a horizontal surface crease along 

with light edge wrinkling. Traces of the 

original red bordering are found along 

three edges. Despite a slightly errant 

scissor cut, this elusive card still exhibits 

impressive obverse hues. 


141. 1953-54 Briggs 

Meats Connie Marrero 

Presented is a clean 1953-54 Briggs 

Meats Connie Marrero example. The 

heralded Cuban hurler is depicted at 

the twilight of his big league career. 

This mid-grade regional card presents 

in (GD to VG) condition with 

multiple surface creases and slight 

discoloration on the reverse. More 

evenly cut than other similar copies, 

traces of the original red bordering 

are visible along each edge. 



Bob Porterfield 

The “ace” of several besieged 1950s 

Washington Senators pitching staffs, Bob 

Porterfield presides on the offered 1953- 

54 Briggs Meats sample. This mid-grade 

regional issue is accentuated by original 

red bordering along two edges. The 

image of the toothy-grinned pitcher displays 

typical grease markings on both the 

surface and reverse. Moderate reverse 

creasing does not protrude onto the alluring 

obverse. 


143. 1953-54 Briggs 

Meats Pete Runnels 

Offered is a 1953-54 Briggs Meats 

Pete Runnels, which displays moderate 

surface creasing along with typical 

hot dog markings on the reverse. 

Despite an errant scissor cut, this elusive 

“meats” issue is still a promising 

acquisition. 



Joe Tipton 

Backstop Joe Tipton presides on the 

offered 1953-54 Briggs Meats regional 

sample. This waxy treasure presents in 

(VG) condition with an even cut, moderate 

surface creasing, and a clean reverse 

with typical “hot dog” toning. Along 

each border, red trim proudly frames 

Tipton’s colorful image. It is presumed 

that Tipton is one of the tougher finds 

from this Washington-area set. 


145. 1953-54 Briggs 

Meats Ed Yost 

Ed The Walking Man Yost is captured 

on this 1953-54 Briggs Meats regional 

card. Moderate surface creasing is 

evident on the obverse, while the 

blank reverse displays typical hot dog 

grease markings. This mid-grade type 

with moderate peripheral wear is 

ideal for the Senators-themed collection.

most popular of the regional issues. These colorful die-cut “Coke is a Natural!” depictions

183. 1960 Leaf Baseball Series 2 Unopened Wax Box with 

(24) Packs 

The offered 1960 Leaf Baseball Series 2 unopened wax box with (24) packs begs the 

tantalizing question, “to open or not to open?” This well-preserved artifact could yield 

multiple gradable copies from the tough #73-144 series including #125 Anderson, #128 

Cepeda and #144 Bunning. A full complete series of (72) cards is also a possibility. 

Each graded by Global Authority, included are (2) GAI 7.5, (3) GAI 7, (2) GAI 6.5, (6) 

GAI 6, (2) GAI 5.5, (6) GAI 5, (1) GAI 4 and (2) ungraded due to contusions and rips 

in the original packaging (both unsearched). The packs display much nicer than the 

technical grade and are evaluated as such due to label centering on the surface of the 

pack. Additionally, the scarce display box exhibits crisp exteriors and a completely 

attached lid, grading (NM to NM-MT). 


184. 1968 Topps Baseball Rack Pack with Banks & 

Maris Showing 

Presented is a remarkable 1968 Topps Baseball rack pack with (36) cards. This 

rack originates from the fourth series and contains cards #284-370. The front displays 

#292, #330 Maris and #355 Banks. The reverse exhibits #319, 338 and 

367. The rack presents average peripheral wear and soiling. The #330 Maris card 

has sustained moderate corner rounding due to storing. 


185. 1971 Topps Baseball Fourth Series 

Vending Box 

Having survived undisturbed for the better part of forty years, this 1971 

Topps Baseball Fourth Series vending box is a graded investor’s dream. 

These (500) untouched cards of #394-523 could yield extremely highgrade 

specimens of #400 Aaron, #450 Gibson and #513 Ryan. Being 

that the 1971 Topps Baseball series is completely enveloped by fragile 

black borders, this recently unearthed find will understandably garner 

much interest. 


186. 1972 Topps Baseball Third Series Vending Box 

Take a chance on pulling multiple high-grade singles from the offered 1972 Topps 

Baseball Third Series vending box. This factory inventory contains (500) cards of #264- 

394 with #299 Aaron, #309 Clemente, and their “In Action” parallels as possibilities. 

Untouched, unsearched, and undisturbed, this 38 year-old cardboard is unbelievable. 



187. 1904 

Boston Red 

Sox Game 

Day Program 

and 

Scorecard 

Offered for the 

BoSox fan and 

baseball enthusiast 

is a wonderful 1904 

game day program 

and corresponding 

scorecard. This artifact 

is a historical 

archive that 

includes HOFer 

Jimmy Collins with 

“Boston Baseball 

Club of the 

American League - 

World’s 

Champions” and 

“Nuf Ced” 

McGreevy on the 

cover, an image of a 

composite cabinet 

for the Red Sox 

(with Cy Young and 

Jimmy Collins) on 

the inside cover, and a stunning full page advertisement for Carl Horner with a composite 

image of every player from the American League with Mack, J. Collins, Young, 

Lajoie, Wallace, Plank, Bender, Waddell, Joss, Keeler, Griffith and Chesbro. The 

scorecard (inserted into the programs on game day and not stapled) shows the Red 

Sox took on the St Louis Browns that afternoon and has been scored. There is also an 

early Coca-Cola ad on the front of the scorecard. The overall condition of this 5- 

1/4x7-1/2” item is (VG) with both staples intact and mild paper loss along the right 

edge of the cover. The bottom half of the spine displays a separation on the outer layer 

only. All interior pages are fully intact. 


188. 1935 

All-Star 

Game 

Program 

The offered 

32-page program 

from 

the 1935 All- 

Star Game at 

Cleveland 

Stadium is a 

remarkable 

keepsake. The 

surface of the 

publication 

presents in 

(EX-MT) 

condition 

with penetrating 

surface 

hues, tightly 

intact staple 

binding and 

minimal spine 

stress. The 

inner pages 

are relatively 

crisp, while 

the unmarked 

scorecard 

concedes 

moderate 

soiling and 

creasing. The program is moderately bowed due to storing methods, and the covers 

display only superficial perimeter wear. Of the 69,812 spectators in attendance, this 

memento is undoubtedly one of the few programs to have endured the decades. 


189. 1926 World Series Program—Yankees vs. Cardinals 

With the not-so-clutch base running of Babe Ruth ending the 1926 Fall Classic, the St. 

Louis Cardinals returned home as World Champions for the first time. Presented is a 

scarce 1926 World Series program depicting the dapper Miller Huggins and Rogers 

Hornsby on the program cover. The 16-page publication displays moderate wear on 

the covers, while the inner pages are relatively crisp and clean. With exception to the 

slightly loose scorecard, the staple bound pages are firmly attached. The scorecard for 

each team is lightly pencil marked, while the team composites are free of any significant 

wear. 


190. 1927 World Series Program—Yankees vs. Pirates 

The powerful 1927 New York Yankees annihilated their completion in both the regular 

season and World Series. The offered 1927 World Series program is a sterling memento 

of “Murderers’ Row” and their accomplishments. The twenty-page publication is 

lower grade due to a combination of wear including creasing and paper fraying. The 

covers, which depict Huggins and Bush, are separated from the remainder of the staple-bound 

publication. Scorecard pencil markings indicate that this program came 

from the third game, in which the mighty Ruth belted a three-run homer and Pennock 

took a perfect game into the seventh inning.

Admission Coupon 

The offered date-stamped (10/1/61)

which Roger Maris set the single-season 

home run record. The emergency 

voucher is crease-free and printed on 

thin paper stock, grading (NM-MT) 

with a well-defined perimeter. For 



193. 1962 New York Mets First-Ever Home Game Full 

Ticket 

The offered full ticket was issued for the New York Mets’ first-ever home game, the 

April 13, 1962 contest at the Polo Grounds. On the reverse, a “PLAN” stamping likely 

denotes that this was part of a season ticket package. The front presents at the (NM) 

plateau, while the reverse has faint adhesive residue, giving the item an overall grade 

of (VG-EX). 


195. Willie Mays 3,000th Hit 

Ticket Stub (July 18, 1970) - 

PSA 3 

Graded VG 3 by PSA. Issued at San 

Francisco’s Candlestick Park for the July 18, 

1970 contest between the host Giants and the 

expansion Montreal Expos, this ticket stub 

granted its bearer an upper deck vantage 

point to Willie Mays’ 3,000th career hit. 

Drilling a second-inning single off Expos 

starter Mike Wegener, Mays became only the 

10th member of the esteemed fraternity. The 

“RAIN CHECK” voucher has seating and 

event legends, shows a somewhat uneven 

admission tear and two hole punches (also 

rendered upon admission) 


194. 1968 World Series Complete Set of (7) Stubs

199. 1800s “Darktown 

Battery” Mechanical Bank - 

Fully Functional 

An absolutely wondrous nineteenth-century 

relic, this “Dark Town Battery” mechanical 

bank pre-dates the Negro Leagues, yet portrays 

black players’ diamond prowess and 

thorough enjoyment of the national pastime. 

Crafted by J&E Stevens, this fully functional 

cast iron novelty simultaneously encourages 

fun and savings. With cast iron figurines 

standing approximately 7-3/8”-tall, a pitcher, 

batter and catcher comprise the scene. Single 

coins fit snugly beneath a lever in the pitcher’s 

right hand, which swivels backward 

when ready for delivery. When the push lever 

just behind the catcher is engaged, the pitcher 

releases the ball (er, coin) and simultaneously, 

the batter (clad in his “POSSUMS” jersey) 

raises his bat as if to take the pitch, which 

speeds directly through the catcher’s nowopen 

chest plate for a perfect “strike.” With 

an ornately designed base measuring 9-1/4”- 

long and 2-3/4”-deep, the antique collectible 

is fully functional with original paint and 

hues as vibrant as they were a century ago. 

On the underside of the base, (2) engraved 

patent dates respectively read: “FEB 2 1875” 

and “JAN 17 1888.” There is a path of wear 

leading up to the coin receptacle, but this 

detail perhaps only enhances the item, attesting 

to its sturdy and unstoppable attributes as 

a device that has reliably delivered literally 

thousands of pitches. 


200. 1911 Philadelphia Athletics World Champions 

Porcelain Plate 

This vintage porcelain keepsake pays homage to the 1911 world champion 

Philadelphia Athletics. Measuring 10-1/8” in diameter, the plate features a green-hued 

elephant design (a moniker embraced by Mack after John McGraw had derisively 

compared the A’s to a “white elephant that nobody wanted”) in which (21) player likenesses 

are gathered and a triumphant Mack is seated atop the pachyderm. Among the 

players depicted are Hall of Famers Bender, Collins and Plank. Free of cracks or 

chips, the item presents nicely and is affected by minimal flaking about the center 

design and significant loss along the gold-colored gilding lining the circumference. 


201. Early 20th 

Century American 

League Composite 

Doll - Rare 

Simultaneously growing in popularity, 

the World Series and the 

composition doll both quickly 

became all the rage in the early 

part of the twentieth century. The 

offered doll is believed to have 

been crafted as the American 

League representative for the 

1914 Fall Classic. The baseball 

event, of course, was to determine 

supremacy between the 

newly formed “American “ and 

“National” circuits. The composition 

doll, meanwhile, supplanted 

the traditional (and decidedly 

more brittle) “bisque,” or porcelain 

version, penetrating the market 

approximately the same time 

that this particular specimen was 

introduced. Standing 14” in 

height, the doll is stuffed with 

straw (ample portions, it seems) 

and is clad in a gray flannel 

baseball ensemble with a felt 

“A” sewn to the left breast. The 

head and hands represent the 

“composition” portions, with 

sawdust and glue the primary 

ingredients. The face and neck 

are affected by multiple cracks, though the rosy cheeks succeed in offsetting many of 

those. A recent auction sale showcased a period Federal League example which, aside 

from its 31-inch stature, had many of the same attributes as this smaller 14” version, 

suggesting that this may very well have been a contemporary companion. Overall, this 

is a well-preserved Deadball Era relic.

Roudebush— 

First Forward 

Pass in Football 

While the forward pass 

was used as a trick play 

dating back to 1906, the 

first player credited as 

revolutionizing the 

downfield assault is 

George Roudebush, 

quarterback for the 

Denison University Big 

Red. Presented is an 

exceptional gathering of 

twelve sepia-toned pictures 

of Roudebush and 

his teammates while 

starring for the school’s 

baseball team. The 2-1/2 

x 7-1/2 images have survived 

the century with 

remarkable clarity and 

captivating early baseball 

imagery. The photographs 

display minimal 

foxing and varying 

degrees of perimeter 

wear, with light pencil 

identifiers on the blank 

reverse. Subjects include 

George Roudebush (first

215. Cal Ripken 1995 All-Star Game 

Signed Game-Worn Baltimore Orioles 

Home Jersey 

Cal Ripken, Jr. was a towering figure, both literally and figuratively, as the 1994-1995 strike came to a long-awaited end. As expected, the play stoppage and resultant cancellation 

of the 1994 immediately alienated thousands of fans. But when the game resumed in late April of 1995, Ripken represented all that was right with the grand game. The off e r e d 

Baltimore Orioles home jersey was worn and autographed by Ripken during the 1995 All-Star Game. Framed to dimensions of 36x44, this big league apparel has inherent value 

and appeal on several fronts. The timing of the event, for one, holds historical significance on the timeline of both Major League Baseball and Ripken’s remarkable career. W h i l e 

many fans were soured by the lengthy strike, those that remained readily embraced Ripken and his tireless efforts. In hot pursuit of Lou Gehrig’s unfathomable standard of 2,130 

consecutive games played, Ripken wore this jersey at the newly erected Ballpark at Arlington as his impressive chase stood at 2,077 games. (Had the strike not occurred, Ripken 

would have surpassed Gehrig’s mark shortly before the ‘95 Mid-Summer Classic.) With orange matting providing a fitting backdrop, the white knit button-down garment is displayed 

to show the back. There, the legend’s since-retired number “8” is sewn in black-on-orange double tackle twill and “RIPKEN” is arched on a nameplate just above. Just 

below the number, Ripken’s black Sharpie autograph projects (“8”) quality. Also visible is the black piping that lines the sleeve endings, the Oriole bird logo on the left sleeve and 

the Texas-themed “1995 All-Star Game” logo patch on the right sleeve. This Hall of Fame heirloom shows evidence of Ripken’s efforts that night (he had two base hits and 

played seven innings). There are several dirt stains along the collar, left sleeve, and upper back. Impeccable provenance accompanies in the form of a letter signed by (then) 

American League President Gene A. Budig. Composed on American League letterhead, the letter attests to the authenticity of both the jersey and Ripken’s signature and is prominently 

displayed along with the jersey. The letter’s full content is listed on our website. Due to the size of this item, a shipping surcharge will apply. 


216. Luis Aparicio 

1971 Boston Red Sox 

Game-Worn Home 

Flannel 

Most appropriately, this Boston 

Red Sox home flannel simultaneously 

represents the last of its 

breed on two fronts. First and 

foremost, the cream-colored button-down 

garment was worn by 

Hall of Fame shortstop Luis 

Aparicio during the 1971 season, 

his first at Fenway. Additionally, 

the tried and true fabric gave 

way to tight-fitting knits the following 

year, marking the end of 

an era, fashion, and style of play 

that are gone forever. In red-onblue 

felt, “RED SOX” is arched 

across the chest in the team’s familiar font. On the back, “11” is sewn in the identical color scheme. The tapered left front tail is home to a “McAULIFFE” local manufacturer’s 

label and accompanying tags that respectively denote “71” and size “38.” There are four holes (as tailored) under each arm to facilitate ventilation. Light to moderate 

wear is evident on this gorgeous Carmines gamer. Full photo LOA from Dave Miedema. Additional details on our website. 



217. Steve Garvey Signed Game-Worn 1982 Los Angeles 

Dodgers Road Jersey 

Former first baseman Steve Garvey wore and signed this 1982 Los Angeles Dodgers 

road jersey during the final season of his 14-year tenure with the club. This gray knit 

button-down garment features blue-on-white double twill identifiers (with the exception 

of the front “6,” which is sewn in solid red) and is signed on the front in blue 

marker (“8” strength). A “W.A. Goodman & Sons” size “44” local manufacturer’s tag 

resides within the collar. Light wear. Full photo LOA from Dave Miedema (for jersey 

authenticity only). More details on our website. 


218. Chris Chambliss 1983 Game-Worn Atlanta Braves 

Road Jersey 

Departing the Bronx spotlight, former first baseman Chris Chambliss brought his veteran 

leadership to Atlanta, where he clubbed a career-best 20 home runs in both 1982 

and 1983. This Braves road jersey was worn by Chambliss during the latter campaign. 

The light-blue knit pullover garment features proper twill identifiers and “Wilson” 

tagging. All original and unaltered, the jersey shows moderate wear. Full photo LOA 

from Dave Miedema. More details on our website. 


219. Vince Coleman Signed Game-Worn 1989 St. Louis 

Cardinals Batting Practice Jersey 

Former St. Louis speed merchant Vince Coleman wore and signed this Cardinals batting 

practice jersey during the 1989 season. The red mesh pullover garment features 

the overlapping “STL” logo on the left breast in white-on-blue twill, “29” sewn to the 

back, and “COLEMAN” arched on a nameplate atop the number in like fashion. On 

the right front, Coleman’s large black marker autograph (inscribed “#29”) shows (“8”) 

strength. The V-neck and sleeve endings are lined with stretch ribbed cotton, and the 

left front tail is home to a “Rawlings” size “42” label and “1989-1” swatch. Moderate 

wear with slight color bleeding (from repeated laundering) on twill elements. Full 

photo LOA from Dave Miedema. 


220. Darryl Strawberry Signed Game-Worn 1991 Los 

Angeles Dodgers Spring Training Home Jersey 

Lured by a lucrative contract, Darryl Strawberry headed for Los Angeles in 1991. This 

white knit Los Angeles Dodgers home jersey was worn by Strawberry during his initial 

spring training with the club in Vero Beach. The button-down home garment features 

proper twill identifiers and “Rawlings” tagging. Just below the front number, 

Strawberry’s blue marker signature shows (“7”) quality. Light wear. Originally 

obtained in a Philadelphia Phillies charity auction, the item comes with a full photo 

LOA from Dave Miedema (for jersey authenticity only). More details on our website. 


221. Chris Sabo 1991 Game-Worn Cincinnati Reds “TBTC” Retro Ensemble 

While Chris Sabo’s 1991 “Turn Back the Clock” knit Cincinnati Reds ensemble doesn’t match the fabric and feel of 

the 1957-1960 garments it represents, Sabo’s own fiery style was, in fact, reminiscent to the stars of old. Worn and 

signed during a 1991 contest, the uniform includes: Signed Jersey gray knit, #17 with proper “Rawlings” tagging; 

autograph shows (“9-10”) strength; Pants gray knit, size “32.” These show light wear. Additional items showing little 

or no wear are listed on our website. Full photo LOA from Dave Miedema (for uniform authenticity only).

Giants Game-Worn Home Flannel - 

Number 42 

Former hurler Bobby Bolin wore this San Francisco 

Giants home jersey during the 1964 campaign. This button-down 

flannel holds further appeal in that it bears the 

number “42,” which has since been retired throughout 

Major League Baseball. That identifier, along with 

“GIANTS” on the front, is sewn in black felt-on-orange 

twill. The tapered left front tail is home to a vintage “Ti m 

M c A u l i ffe” tagging. Moderate wear is evident, with evidence 

of a period number change. Full photo LOA f r o m 

Dave Miedema. Additional details on our website.

Giants home jersey during his 1976 rookie season. The 

orange-on-black twill identifiers include “GIANTS” 

arched across the chest, “45” on the back and “RIC- 

CELLI” atop the number (in block-style characters, as 

opposed to the traditional team name font). Proper 

“Wilson” tagging is present, though the National 

League Centennial patch has been removed from the 

right sleeve. Outlines of a nameplate suggests previous 

wear by another player. Full photo LOA from Dave 

Miedema. Full description on our website.

from yielding the 

first grand slam in

chest in black-on-white twill, “2” sewn to the back and 

left front and “HILL” arched just atop the back. Hill 

has signed below the latter identifier. The manufacturer’s 

tag has been removed, and though the numbers are 

original, the team and player names are restorations.

Season 

Slugger Miguel 

Cabrera unleashed his 

fence-clearing 

prowess during his 

2003 rookie campaign

twill identifiers and a Marlins “10th Anniversary” 

patch. The size “50” jersey shows light use. Auction 

LOA from Grey Flannel. Additional details on our website. 



231. 1934-1937 Lou Gehrig Vault-Marked 

Professional Model Bat - With Full PSA/DNA 

This Lou Gehrig signature model bat was employed (by an 

unknown player) during the latter portion of the tragically felled 

legend’s career and subsequently shipped to the Hillerich & 

Bradsby plant for reproduction. This (31.8oz/34”) white ash weapon 

was turned during the 1934-1937 labeling period and exhibits evidence 

of excellent use with ball and cleat marks about the barrel 

and a 5-inch handle crack that has been long-since mended with a 

pair of vintage batboy nails. Visible on the left barrel is the area 

where the bat had been side written, in all likelihood by plant fixture 

Henry Morrow. It was common practice during that era for 

grease pencil identifiers to be placed to indicate the length, weight, 

date, and name of the player for whom duplicate models would be 

crafted. Additionally, vault markings of “V17” are stamped onto 

both the knob and barrel end. The “V” indicates the first letter of 

the player’s last name, which is unknown. A review of Gehrig’s 

ordering records does not show requests for bats of this example’s 

dimensions during the referenced labeling period. Gehrig did, however, 

favor the Hornsby-style knob like the one on this model. The 

center brand remains prominent, and the barrel stampings are legible, 

though the latter portion of Gehrig’s facsimile signature is 

worn. Full photo LOA from John Taube, PSA/DNA. 


232. Cal Ripken, Jr. 

1996-1997 Game-Ready 

Bat - PSA/DNA 

The offered Young Bat Company 

“Y120 CR” block-letter model bat 

was issued to Ripken during the 

1996-1997 labeling period. While the 

(32oz/35”) white ash weapon 

exhibits no evidence of game use, its 

“game ready” attributes include bat-rack streaks, minimal barrel scuffing and traces of pine tar on the handle. The Hall of Famer’s since-retired uniform number “8” is 

inscribed on the knob in black marker. Uncracked, the Birdland relic comes with a full photo LOA and hologram from PSA/DNA (#1B00058), as well as a photo LOA from 

Sports Collectors Digest. The latter document is endorsed by Dave Bushing, Dan Knoll, Lou Lampson, Troy Kinunen and Robert Orsimarsi. 


233. Mark McGwire 1998 

Signed Game-Used Bat 

With UDA and Full PSA 

Wielded and autographed during an 

unforgettable summer that saw him 

eclipse a single-season record that 

stood for 37 years, this Rawlings- 

Adirondack “MAC25” block-letter (full 

name) bat was part of Mark McGwire’s 

1998 lethal arsenal. This (32.6oz/34- 

1/2”) white ash weapon showcases 

McGwire’s blue Sharpie signature, 

which projects (“9”) quality between 

the center brand and barrel stampings. 

The uncracked lumber shows moderate use with ball, batrack, and ball transfer marks throughout, as well as pine-tar residue on the handle and a weighted sleeve impression near 

the center brand. Graded GU-6 by John Taube PSA/DNA. Full photo LOA from PSA/DNA (for the bat). UDA cert (#BAJ07139) accompanies (for the autograph). Additional 

details on our website. 


234. Ryan Zimmerman Signed Game-Used Lot With Bat, 

Cleats and Batting Gloves 

Providing thrills in the 2009 campaign, Washington Nationals third baseman Ryan 

Zimmerman authored a 30-game hitting streak as fans throughout the Senior Circuit took 

notice. The offered items were autographed and employed by the hot corner specialist during 

that memorable season. Includes: Game-Used Bat a (32.8oz/34”) Marucci “RZ11-M” blockletter 

model that shows heavy use with ball and deeply embedded stitch marks about the barrel, 

heavy pine-tar residue, and a 3” handle crack. Between the center brand and barrel stampings, 

Zimmerman’s silver Sharpie penning shows (“8”) strength. Inscribed “Game Used 09”; 

Game-Worn Cleats black leather Under Armour size “12” footwear items with (6) metal 

cleats affixed to the sole of each. Signed on the toe of each (“5”). Solid use with infield dirt 

caked about the cleats; Batting Gloves leather “Under Armour” accessories each signed on 

the palm (“8”) and inscribed “game used 08.” Excellent use. Ryan Zimmerman “11” holograms 

accompany.

TH E TO M PO S T PH I L L I E S CO L L E C T I O N 


The story behind the vast Philadelphia Phillies collection assembled by Tom Post is one of dedication, 

determination and discerning taste. Post grew up in the “City of Brotherly Love,” attending baseball 

games with his father at old Connie Mack Stadium. Like most boys in Philadelphia during the 1950s, 

Post idolized Richie Ashburn, and over the years, he began collecting items attributed to Whitey Ashburn. The 

collection took on a mind of its own, fueled by Post's dedication to the Phillies and high quality, high-grade 

items. Offered on the following pages is a mere sampling of items in Post's collection. Notice that each piece 

was carefully selected to be part of Post's labor of love. Many of the items in the collection have, at one time or 

another, been on display at either Citizen Bank Park (the Hall of Fame Club) or at the Constitution Center in 

the Old City. Be sure to take the time to read each lot in its entirety, for many pieces are of museum quality. 

235. Tug McGraw 1977 Game-Used Bat MEARS A-9.5 

“Ya gotta believe” that the offered Tug McGraw game-used bat is one of the toughest 

gamers in the hobby. This Hillerich & Bradsby (34.6oz/35”) “S2” block-letter 

(last name only) model was employed by McGraw during the 1977 season. The 

uncracked white ash was ably brandished at that, as the reliever went 4-for-10 at the 

plate that year. Outstanding use attributes include ball, cleat, bat-rack, and deeply 

embedded stitch marks throughout, as well as light pine-tar residue on the handle, a 

vintage black marker notation of “45” on the knob, and grain swelling about the hitting 

surface. While weaponry from pitchers’ arsenals are fleeting to begin with, this 

McGraw example is perhaps a tougher find, as H&B plant records show that a total 

of only 47 bats were shipped to McGraw over the 13-year span of 1969-1981. 

Graded A-9.5 by MEARS. Full photo LOA from MEARS. 


236. Dick Allen 1973-1975 Game-Used Bat With Full 

PSA/DNA 

Among the most controversial personalities in Major League annals, former slugger 

Dick Allen employed the offered Hillerich & Bradsby “P89” signature model bat, 

most likely during the 1975 campaign. This (34/6oz/35”) white ash weapon shows 

excellent use with ball, stitch and bat-rack marks throughout, as well as heavy pinetar, 

an eight-inch handle crack, and a black marker notation of “15” on the knob. 

While “P89” models of this length are not found on Allen’s ordering records, the 

weapon bears identifiable Allen characteristics. Additionally, the bat-rack streaks are 

common to 1970s Phillies gamers, suggesting that the bat was team-ordered and 

used by Allen. Full photo LOA from John Taube PSA/DNA. 


237. Mike Schmidt 1977 Signed Game-Used Bat - 

PSA/DNA 8 

In his bid for a fourth successive N.L. home run crown, Hall of Famer Mike Schmidt 

used this Hillerich & Bradsby “P89” block-letter model bat during the 1977 campaign. 

Uncracked, this (33.2oz/36”) white ash lumber shows excellent game use with ball, batrack, 

cleat and stitch marks throughout, as well as light pine-tar residue and a black 

marker notation of “20” on the knob. Between the center brand and barrel stampings, 

S c h m i d t ’s black marker signature and inscription of “#548” shows (“9”) quality. 

Graded GU 8 with full photo LOA from John Taube PSA/DNA (for bat only). 


238. Steve Carlton 1983 World Series Bat With Full 

PSA/DNA 

Back in the October spotlight for the second time in four years, Philadelphia Phillies 

Hall of Famer Steve Carlton was issued this Louisville Slugger block-letter (full 

name) bat for use in the 1983 Fall Classic. Uncracked, this white ash weapon 

(33.5oz/35”) is game ready (but shows no signs of game use). There are visible red 

bat-rack streaks on the barrel and a black marker notation of “32” on the knob. 

Flanking Carlton’s block-letter name on the barrel, “1983 - WORLD SERIES” and 

“PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES” pinpoint the event for which this lumber was turned. 

Full photo LOA from John Taube PSA/DNA. 


239. Greg Luzinski 1980 Game-Used Bat With Full 

PSA/DNA 

Part of a potent Phillies lineup that brought the franchise its first-ever title in 1980, 

Greg Luzinski employed this Louisville Slugger “K55” block-letter (last name only) 

bat during his 11th and final season in Philly. The uncracked ash (32.6oz/35”) has 

game-ready to light use markings with bat-rack streaks throughout, tape residue on 

the handle, and a black marker notation of “19” on the knob. Full photo LOA from 

John Taube PSA/DNA. 


240. Jim Thome 2004-2005 Game-Used Bat and 500 

Home Run Ticket With Full PSA/DNA 

Jim Thome used this Louisville Slugger “M356” signature model lumber as he 

neared the 500 home run plateau during his tenure with the Phillies. Turned during 

the 2004-2005 labeling period, the (33.40z/34-1/2”) weapon features a glossy black 

“Smith” finish and prominent silver-hued stampings. Outstanding game use shows, 

with multiple ball, stitch, bat-rack and cleat marks. Additionally, there is a weighted 

donut impression, pine-tar residue and a lengthy handle crack. The lower handle and 

knob have been padded and taped to enhance the grip. GradedGU8with full photo 

LOA from John Taube PSA/DNA. Also included is a full ticket from the September 

16, 2007 contest in which Thome hit his 500th career home run.

260. Circa-1932-35 Babe Ruth Single-Signed Ball on Spalding 

Ruth Home Run Special 

The bearer of countless monikers and with a legacy beyond reproach, George Herman Babe 

Ruth was always eager to fulfill the autograph requests of his adoring young fans. Etched on an 

appropriately titled Spalding “Home Run Special” ball, which he endorsed, Ruth (d.1948) 

crisply signed the sweet spot of this blue-and-red stitched ball. Spanning nearly two-inches 

across the canvas, the centered blue script registers (“7”) penmanship. The circa-1932-35 No. 

3RC orb fares similarly (“7”), with incidental soiling throughout and only slight print imperfections 

on the trademark stampings. While bona fide Ruth material is readily available on the 

open market, few examples can match the presentation appeal of this historic sphere. Full photo 

LOA from JSA. 


261. Circa 1928-1929 New York Yankees Team-Signed Baseball 

with (15) Signatures including Ruth & Gehrig 

Featured is a circa 1928-1929 New York Yankees team-signed baseball, which includes fifteen 

signatures including Ruth and Gehrig. The autographs on this historic blue-and-red stitched 

ONL sphere are executed with a blue steel-tip fountain pen. The endorsements average (“6-7”), 

while the signatures on the south panel fare lesser. The orb has sustained moderate damage to 

the panels including surface abrasions, soiling and expected toning. Highlights include Sweet 

Spot: Ruth (“7”, strongest on ball with slight abrasion barely affecting the surname); West 

Panel: Combs (“5”), Durocher (“7”, early career); East Panel: Paschal (“7”), Lazzeri (“5”) and 

Gehrig (“5-6”). Interestingly, the consignor’s father caught this ball at a Yankee game in the late 

20s and obtained the signatures personally. Full photo LOA from James Spence Authentications.

(11) Autographs

the ball. The blue and black ink 

endorsements include Sweet 

Spot: Speaker (“7”), West 

Panel: Baker (“6-7”), Bud Abbott (“4-5”, actor), Grove (“3”); East Panel: Ruth (“7”), Wagner (“3”); North Panel: W. Johnson (“7”), Dickey (“7”); South Panel: E. Collins

abrasions. Just below the trademark, the arbiters have signed in 

black fountain pen, with assessments averaging (“5-6”). Includes 

Nallin (d.1956), McGowan (d.1954), Stark (d.1968) and Klem 

(d.1951). On an adjacent panel, an unidentified signature is

Baseball With Full PSA/DNA 

The offered ONL Frick baseball showcases Honus 

Wagner’s sweet spot autograph. The creamy sphere features 

a prominent trademark and bright red laces. The orb 

carries an overall grade of (“5”), as a very thin coat of 

shellac has been placed over the sweet spot (and shows 

minimal crazing). Executed in black ink during the 1948 

season, Wagner’s highly sought penning maintains (“6”) 

strength and clarity. Flanking Wagner’s autograph are the 

scriptings of former Pirates outfielder Dixie Walker (“6”) 

and (then) Bucs skipper Billy Meyer (“6”). Full photo

from the former Boston Braves bat boy who originally

cardboard playing field and (2) original scorecard sheets (marked). The dreidel also serves as a 

storage facility for (10) original baseball-themed markers. The box top features a sizable image of 

the flame-throwing moundsman, who has signed in black-ink steel tip fountain pen, projecting (“7- 

8”) strength and clarity. The box has retained its vibrant colors and is minimally affected by edge 

wear and a small hole near the center (not affecting Johnson’s signature). Additionally, thin tape 

strips have been adhered within the corners of the lid. A valuable relic by itself, this particular 

example is all the more alluring, as it showcases the highly sought penning of its heroic subject.

317. Babe Ruth 

Vintage 

Photograph With 

Gorgeous 

Signature 

Simultaneously transcending

Babe Ruth became the

things great, his name 

replacing superlatives 

regardless of the talent 

being described. The 

offered signed photograph 

mirrors Ruth’s unreachable 

qualities. Framed to 

dimensions of 15x17, this 

vintage black-and-white 

photograph depicts the 

Baltimore-born icon in his 

Yankee apparel, swinging 

with a patented vigor that 

produced enduring 

images, hit or miss. The 

image appears to be a 

post-career depiction of 

Ruth, perhaps at an exhibition. 

As unmistakable as 

his likeness, Ruth’s bold 

penmanship decorates this 

appealing piece. Executed 

in black-ink steel-tip fountain pen, Ruth’s scripting trumpets (“9”) strength and clarity, 

trumping most Ruth pennings to have surfaced. In Ruth’s own hand, an inscription of 

“To My Pal Mauro” is accompanied by a notation of “2-27-47,” dating the piece to 

less than a year before Ruth’s passing. Auction LOA from James Spence 

Authentications. Accompanying, as well, is a PSA/DNA LOA from a 2005 auction.

LeBaron (with 75% of the dotted line visible), Rick 

Casares (hand cut just inside the dotted line) and Tobin 

Rote (with 60% of the dotted line visible). All three 

cards are crease-free and clean with beautiful, problemfree 

reverses.

Topps #122 

Joe Namath 

Rookie— 

PSA 5.5 

Judged EX+ 5.5 

by PSA. From 

Tuscaloosa to 

New York, 

“Broadway” Joe 

Namath was a 

larger-than-life 

figure wherever he 

suited up. The 

offered 1965 

Topps #122 Joe 

Namath rookie 

shortprint is a cornerstone 

of this 

challenging “tall boy” edition. Mild peripheral wear, a 

surface imperfection on the upper right corner, and 

slightly askew centering account for the technical 

grade. The crease-free image displays radiant red- andyellow 

lettering. 


367. (5) 1960 Kahn’s Wieners 

Football Singles 

Presented is a sampling of five singles from the tough 

1960 Kahn’s Wieners football series. Included are Fiss, 

Nagler, Nisby, Sandusky and Wren. These cards are 

lower grade due to a combination of surface wear, writing, 

or reverse paper loss.

by a combination of wear and creasing along with 

askew surface registration and water damage. All key 

cards are moderately affected by these surface imperfections. 



371. Billy Ray Smith 1963-1970 Baltimore Colts Signed 

Game-Worn Jersey 

The offered Baltimore Colts Billy Ray Smith, Sr. signed game-worn home jersey is a 

telling reminder of those glorious years in the Waverly neighborhood. Worn by Smith 

(d.2001) during the latter portion (1963-1970) of his tenure with the Colts, this blue 

dureen pullover garment features “74” sewn to the front, back, and shoulders in white 

tackle twill. White-and-blue striped trim lines the shoulders, while a crotch flap 

resides on the front tail. On the front “7,” Smith’s black ballpoint autograph projects 

(“7-8”) strength. The jersey shows absolutely phenomenal wear with multiple team 

repairs applied to the fabric, twill and trim, alike. Additionally, the back portion of the 

crotch flap has been removed (as have the buttons on the front flap). There is no tagging 

present, as it was either removed from within the collar or with the missing 

crotch flap. Given the lack of a manufacturer’s or distributor’s tag, this is presumed to 

have been worn by Smith in games and subsequently relegated to use on the Colts’ 

practice field, which is where the consignor’s grandfather was given this battle-tested 

apparel by Smith, himself. 


372. 1998 Randy Moss Game-Worn Minnesota Vikings 

Road Jersey - From Rookie Season 

The offered Minnesota Vikings road jersey was worn by wide out Randy Moss during 

his NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year campaign of 1998. This mesh/dazzle cloth 

blend pullover garment features “84” sewn to the front, back and shoulders in purpleon-yellow 

double twill and “MOSS” sewn to a nameplate atop the back number in 

like fashion. Team logos and “Starter” manufacturer’s emblems are sewn to the 

sleeves (just below purple-and-yellow striped stretch knit panels), while an “NFL” 

badge is sewn to the base of the stretch ribbed cotton V-neck. Spandex panels line the 

sides, and the tail has been custom hemmed, resulting in the absence of tail tagging 

(Moss hems the majority of his jerseys above the tag line). The wear characteristics 

are solid with puckering about the twill elements, discernible turf burns, significant 

wear on the ribbed sleeve cuffs, underarm pulling, and a team repair on the chest. 

Auction LOA from Lou Lampson. Additional details on our website. 


373. 1989-1990 Troy Aikman Game-Worn Dallas Cowboys 

Jersey 

The offered Dallas Cowboys jersey was donned by Hall of Fame quarterback Troy 

Aikman during either his rookie (1989) or sophomore (1990) campaign in the Texas 

Stadium spotlight. This white mesh/dazzle cloth blend pullover garment features “8” 

heat-pressed to the front, back and shoulders in blue block-style numerals and “AIK- 

MAN” appliquéd in like fashion to a nameplate atop the back number. A blue-andblack 

striped pattern accents the custom-hemmed sleeves, and the stretch knit V-neck 

is void of the “NFL” badge that began to appear in 1991 (thus, dating the jersey). The

to the AFC title game. This white mesh pullover garment features “28” sewn to the

the back number in like fashion. On the lower portion of the back “2,” Faulk’s black 

Sharpie autograph shows “9” quality. An “NFL” logo badge accents the stretch knit V- 

neck, blue-and-white striped panels line the shoulders and spandex-like panels line the 

sides. The left front tail is home to a “Wilson” label, a “95” swatch, and a size “46” 

tag. Moderate wear is evident in the form of team repairs, pilling, minimal fraying, 

and contact-induced battle scars. Additionally, the cuffed sleeves and strait-hemmed 

tail are consistent with Getty Images of Faulk. Full photo LOA from Dave Miedema.

384. Super 

Bowl XXIII 

Bronze 

Statue 

#2/23 

Primed for yet 

another Super 

Bowl title, Joe 

Montana and his 

San Francisco 

49ers almost got 

more than they 

bargained for in 

the Cincinnati 

Bengals. 

Montana was 

clutch under 

pressure, as he 

engineered the 

game-winning 

92-yard touchdown 

drive with 

less than three 

minutes on the 

clock. Since the 

1989 Super 

Bowl was the 

first to be played in Miami in over 10 years, the city wanted to roll out the big guns, 

so they commissioned native Miamian and contemporary artist Elliot Arkin (d.2007) 

to produce 23 bronze statues. Arkin, known for his creative, yet humorous, approach 

to modern art, has scaled two players flying into action. This limited edition (#2/23) 

sculpture rests atop an 8x6 stone platform that has “XXIII MIAMI” etched into both 

the front and back (noticeable chipping on the stone base). Measuring 24” tall (base + 

statue) and weighing 45lbs, this bronze model displays the characteristics and ingenious 

approach of its creator. A wonderful patina further enhances this visual masterpiece. 

Both beautiful craftsmanship and artist talent are apparent in this true rarity that 

draws attention from both the art collector and sports enthusiast. Due to weight/size, a 

shipping surcharge will apply.

404. Flynn Robinson 1971-72 World Champion Los 

Angeles Lakers Game-Worn Road Jersey 

The offered purple dureen pullover garment was worn by Los Angeles Lakers guard 

Flynn Robinson during the 1971-72 season, which culminated with the franchise’s 

first-ever championship on the West Coast (after having been felled in Finals play for 

seven of the previous ten seasons). Retaining its splendorous hues from nearly forty 

years ago, the hardwood apparel features “21” sewn to the front and back in white-ongold 

double tackle twill, with the lower layer elongated to give a “shadow” effect. 

“LAKERS” is sewn across the chest in gold-on-white angled characters and “ROBIN- 

SON” is arched atop the back number in gold-on-white block-style letters. Purplegold-and-white 

striped stretch ribbed cotton lines the neck and arm yokes. Dubbed 

“Electric Eye,” Flynn was with his fifth of seven different teams and was wearing one 

of five different numbers assigned over his eight-season career. The number on this 

particular jersey was changed (from “20”) to suit Robinson. In very high probability, 

the jersey was worn during the 1970-71 season by Earnie Killum who, at 6-foot-3, 

180 lbs. was very similar to Robinson in terms of size. The jersey does not have any 

tags or labels and, save for the name and number change, is unaltered and all original. 

A Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame LOA accompanies, as does a full 

photo LOA from Grey Flannel. 


405. Bobby Jones 1980s Philadelphia 76ers Game-Worn 

Home Jersey 

Excelling in aspects that seldom showed up in the box score, former A B A and NBA f o r- 

ward Bobby Jones led by example and unbridled passion. The offered Philadelphia 76ers 

home jersey was worn by the University of North Carolina product during his eight-season 

tenure (1978/79 - 1985/86) at the Philadelphia Spectrum. This white mesh pullover 

garment features “24” sewn to the front and back in blue-on-red double tackle twill with 

“SIXERS” arched atop the front number in like fashion. Arched just above the back numb 

e r, “B. JONES” is sewn in solid blue block-style characters. Red-white-and-blue striped 

stretch knit lines the V-neck and arm yokes. The left front tail is home to a “Wilson” size 

“42” label and a flap tag whose contents have faded. Matching the style of “Wi l s o n ” 

apparel worn by the club from 1979 through 1985, this particular example shows solid 

wear with minimal fraying about the twill components.

Dual Cut 

Signatures 

A hardwood 

prodigy mentored 

by his father, 

Pete Maravich 

employed 

unprecedented flash to become the NCAA’s all-time leading scorer. The offered dual 

cut signature showcases the seldom-seen pairing of both Pete (d.1988, signed “Pistol 

Pete”) and Press (d.1987) Maravich. Executed in blue ballpoint on a 2x5 sheet, both 

signatures project (“9”) quality. A tough combination to begin with, this coupling 

became all the more rare with their untimely deaths just nine months apart. Auction 



408. Michael Jordan Signed Check 

Given our automated society, securing signatures from athletes via personal checks is 

increasingly uncommon. The offered Michael Jordan check was penned by “His 

Airness” on the front of this dated 1989 collectible. The crisp blue ink endorsement 

grades (“8-9”) and comes with an auction LOA from James Spence Authentications.

During the 2002-03 school 

year at Ohio’s St. Vi n c e n t - 

St. Mary’s, hoops phenom 

LeBron James was issued 

and autographed this “Irish 

Pass,” excusing him from homework assignments. On the reverse, James’ black ballpoint 

signature (“8-9”) is accompanied by inscriptions of “23” and “Darell” (the name of the 

original recipient, who has provided a signed LOA).

Iverson jersey, the lot includes jerseys 

worn by: Rod Barajas (2007 spring training Phillies warm-up); Kyle Korver ( 2 0 0 6 - 0 7 

76ers road jersey, autographed); Pete Mackanin (1979 Phillies warm-up jacket); D i c k i e

“Who’s Who” in celebrity

appearance. The offered 

invitation was sent to 

songstress Patti LaBelle,

Featuring a concentration of 1994 Stanley Cup New York Rangers collectibles, the 

offered lot contains (145) Rangers collectibles highlighted by a beautiful 1994 Stanley 

Cup Champions vermeil gold ring. The size 7-1/2 to 8 ring, which shows minimal 

wear, has a Rangers logo-face and “1994 Stanley Cup Champions” bordering the logo 

with a Stanley Cup and NHL logo on the right and left shanks respectively. This limited 

edition ring (#1135/500, engraved on inside) will be a prized addition to any

420. George Swarbrick 1969-70 Baltimore Cippers 

Game-Worn AHL Road Sweater 

The offered American Hockey League sweater was worn by Baltimore Clippers 

right winger George Swarbrick during the 1969-70 season. Tailored from black 

dureen, this long-sleeved pullover garment features “BALTIMORE” angled downward 

across the chest in orange-on-white double tackle twill and “14” sewn to the 

back in like fashion. Elsewhere (specifically, at the waistline, shoulders and 

sleeves), orange and white highlights strike a familiar “Charm City” chord, matching 

the hues of the city’s vaunted (at that time) baseball team. Black-and-orange 

striped stretch ribbed cotton lines the collar, whose interior is home to a vintage 

“SIZE 46” tag. Sewn within the left side seam, a “General Athletic” laundering 

instructions tag bears the Ohio-based manufacturer’s triangular logo, as well as 

handwritten initials that appear to read “VW.” Coupled with its team’s long-since 

defunct status, this hockey heirloom holds inherent appeal in that it has absolutely 

outstanding game use attributes. Starting with a readily apparent team repair below 

the front of the collar, evidence of roughhousing continues with team repairs 

below the “E” in “BALTIMORE” and on the right sleeve. Additionally, repeated 

board marks, fabric pilling and bloodstains are (mostly) on the sleeves, while perspiration-induced 

discoloration affects the shoulders. The twill identifiers show 

fraying and slight fading. All told, this is a decidedly fleeting example from the 

first of three failed Baltimore franchises in the AHL.

show (“8”) quality, though a few warrant lesser assessment. Includes: Barrasso, Borque, Caufield, 

Coffey, Francis, Jagr, Lemieux, Loney, Mullen, Murphy, Paek, Pietrangelo, Stanton, Stevens, 

Trottier and Young. Tape and handling evidence on the blade and butt are consistent with a possible

444. 2009 Topps American Heritage 

Jackie Robinson/Barack Obama 

Dual-Cut Signature Card—#1/1 

The offered 2009 Topps American Heritage Jackie 

Robinson/Barack Obama dual-cut signature card is perhaps 

the most historically significant certified autograph 

ever issued. Confirmed by Topps as a “1/1,” the 

endorsements of these African-American pioneers are 

visible when opened as a “booklet”. The owner who 

“pulled” this acclaimed collectible returned it to Topps 

per the company’s request. The original Obama signature 

was not certified from a third-party vendor, so 

Topps “reconstructed” the booklet card with an endorsement 

culled from Obama’s book The Audacity of Hope, 

which comes with a full LOA from PSA/DNA 

(H46568). Being that Topps did not have an LOA for the 

Jackie Robinson cut autograph, the consignor subsequently 

submitted the card and both autographs to 

PSA/DNA for a full photo LOA. With an overall grade 

of 8.5 by PSA/DNA (I10601), the autographs are graded 

by PSA/DNA as follows: Obama (“9”) and Robinson 

(“8”). The dual-cut signature booklet of these important 

Americans grades (NM-MT) and has impressive visual 

appeal. A documentation letter from Topps certifying 

that this card was “reconstructed” along with a pair of 

full photo LOAs from PSA/DNA for the Obama signature 

and the insert card are present. 


445. 2004 Donruss Timeless Treasures Ty Cobb 

Game-Used Bat Barrel 1/1 

Of the entire production run from the 2004 Donruss Timeless Treasures 

series, the offered Ty Cobb game-used bat barrel is the only extant copy. 

Confirmed on the reverse as a true “1/1,” the well-centered, wood-etched 

signature of the “Georgia Peach” was culled from a bat he wielded during a 

game. Additionally, although Hall of Fame cut autographs have been distributed 

on several products, the supply of bat barrel slices have all but dried 

up. If you are a modern insert enthusiast, this tangible piece of baseball history 

will definitely satisfy.
