Dale - I'd forgotten about Bartee being the last Tiger hitter, thanks for the heads up. I was the under bidder in the Tiger's Foundation auction and the winner didn't pay. I was really pumped, as you know so many of these were recycled I thought I may never see one.

Les - Thanks, the patch looks fantastic in person.

Great jersey, I always thought the tigers did a great job back the too of bringing in PSA at the end of the season to authenticate many items from the stadium/season in 1999.

Today I traded a 1958 El Tappe bat to his nephew for a 1961 Rawlings sporting goods dealer clock. He wanted the bat to go back to the family since they did not have one from his brief time in the major leagues.

Bat looks green. What kind of light did you photograph it under?

Frik.... you caught maybe the most inexperienced photographer! First of all the lady has her "quality" camera in her purse, so I used my digital camera that is about 6 years old.

Second, I tried using using the documents setting as that seemed to really work well for autograph baseballs and not picking up add flash light marks. Any tips, I know this is right up your ally. I am trying to cut down on a big bright flash spot on bats?

Thanks!

You might want to ask Kyle Hess. I could tell you how to photograph a bat with a digital SLR, but not with a point and shoot. For an SLR, you'd want to use a fast lens, bump up the ISO, and shoot without flash. But I really don't know about your camera.

I've taken pictures of baseballs with flash, but I make sure that the flash marks hit a part of the ball that doesn't have much interest. But good luck. I would recommend that you have your significant other take pictures of the bat for you, or at least borrow her camera. :)

Did you pick up the Austin Jackson helmet and bat bag from the Tigers auction? I wanted the bat bag, but saw you were bidding on it so I left it alone. I am sure there are many more out there.

No, the MLB is from an autograph session on December 4th with Steiner, I wish It was because then it would be easy to photomatch, and I could study for the bar exam instead of searching getty...:eek: haha.

I do have some beef with the shipping they sent it without a cube with peanuts in the package, the peanut wrap stuck to the pine tar, and there are some white marks, does anyone know how to get it off? I was taking tweezers but that takes forever.

Picked up my first GU bat...not sure what player cracked it but was taken directly out of Brisbane Bandits clubhouse. I was supposed to get a shattered bat from a game the night before but the GM told me to come back Sunday game and he would give it to me...instead he gave me this one (I assume he chucked out the last one). At least this one is only cracked. Would be good to know who's it is though.

1963 Cleveland Indians Willie Kirkland zip-front flannel vest. Made by MacGregor, set 1, 1963 tag inside tail. Jersey has been recycled to an industrial league team (Tire Outlet of Santa Clara, CA) otherwise, all original with no restorations or number changes. Piped trim with durene inserts in both armpits. Company name on back could easily be removed. I may sell this and leave the name on back and let the buyer decide to remove it or not. Does anyone have an opinion on this issue?

Dave Miedema

Yes, Dave. I think it is best to leave as-is. It is still a MLB Flannel with somewhat of an oddball appeal to it. Now, how did a Cleveland gamer from the early 60s end up as a softball/baseball jersey from a league team in California? My guess is that it may have been recycled twice. Maybe from Cleveland to a northern California farm club, then to a tire retailer?

01-08-2011, 02:47 AM
Warren, the Indians had a minor league team in Salinas, CA in in 1965 so maybe that's how it made it's way out to Cali? In any case, that's the coolest softball jersey I've ever seen! Nice pickup!

Salinas? That sounds like the answer. It's a cool jersey and I'd like to keep it. Being out of work, I must let the new acquisitions go first. Seems like I only can afford to keep the $50 items.:(

I thought I had the Keoni, I paid for it and everything!!!! Then the seller emailed me a day later saying he couldn't find the bat!!! I guess you must of just made a better offer, after the auction ended. Now I know the truth.

The seller said that he still had the bat & that he wanted $xxx for it. If I had known that you were buying it I would have told him that "I will pass on it". Sorry about that. On the other side of it I wrote to the seller of the "Tides" bat & he said that the person that he got it from wanted it back because it was his favorite bat & he wanted it back from him. Go figure...

2009 Cliff Lee Alternate, with HK patch and signed with Game Worn inscription. Purchased directly from Phillies--MLB classification is Team Issued as they did not witness Lee taking it off, but the jersey shows use--can see outline from belt, tags are curled from washing and some other misc. loose threads. Also has the Phillies 09 tagging inside. Met Cliff today and he verified it was one of his gamers from 2009 and added a nice game worn 2009 inscription.

Back from the Minute Maid with these RARE jerseys. I have a thing for Astros TBTC jerseys and these two take the cake. First up is a 1999 M&N Moises Alou rainbow TBCT with matching pants. Both are made in Berlin with proper tagging. Alou was injured for the whole season due to his treadmill accident but apparently they made him a uniform. Never seen this jersey anywhere except the Ryan a fellow member owns. Love the screened on Astros and the Star

Next up is a 1995 TBTC shooting star jersey made by Victory Athletic. This company out of LA supplied Bagwell, Biggio custom jerseys in the late 90's while the rest of the Astros wore Russell Athletic. This is #12 of Rickey Gutierrez who played mostly as a bench guy in 95. Never seen this jersey in my life till today and can't find photos on the internet. Jersey is really sweet. Not really accurate as it has tackle twill wordmark not chain stitch.

They had a 3-4 late 80's jersey's and some 1990's Goodmans. They don't have them in the team store but in storage. They usually just sell the stuff during the games from a booth they have behind home plate.

Bama,

Nice jerseys. Both styles are pretty rare. The 1999 Full Rainbow TBTC were given away to random fans. I was fortunate enough to buy one years later from one of the lucky fans.

The 1995 Shooting Star jerseys were also given to random fans.

In regard to the victory, many people don't realize, but Chris Donnels also ordered Victory jerseys. Funny how three guys would do that, but they preferred the Victory over the Russell.

Thanks for sharing the photos!

Picked up two Titans gamers for me, and am listing the rest - keeping Colin Allred and James Adkins because both have a great deal of wear. I think my contact is getting a new batch in soon so hopefully I'll have some good news on that soon!!

Selling:

Jason Rivers (listed - eBay)
Dominique Edison (09 throwback - had two, sold one, other on eBay)
Chris Henry 2008 home with 10th anniversary patch
William Hayes 2008 home with 10th anniversary patch
David Stewart 2006 home jersey - sold



Also picked up two college gamers - an East Carolina football jersey #19 and a Middle Tennessee State Blue Raiders football jersey #84 (this one I'm thinking may be a practice jersey).
