Well, I attended the first antique show of the year last weekend and had some success. I found a very nice Nokona Bill Hunter which I understand is quite rare. It has two fingerlock loops on the back of the fingers and very heavy piping and a smooth lining ($30). Next I came across a Reach official league ball with a lot of light fountain pen signatures. I need to look more closely at the signatures, but Lou Boudreau is definately there. This was actually in a baby buggy with a pony league ball ($3). My next find was a pair of bats which included an absolutely beautiful 35" H&B Burnt Oil finish bat with great lathe marks patina, and a Lee May 35" model 125 ($90 for the pair). There were a number of other lower end items available and a few waaaay overpriced nice gloves and a trophy. Overall and nice day.

Re: April pick ups
Hi All. I have been a bit removed from the collecting world lately. Been so crazy with work and family. But I've got a some more free time now, and am doing some catch up. I haven't visited this forum in a while, but great to see some lively discussion...so I'll think I'll catch up on some threads.
Mike- Great Bat. I especially like that a lot too! Congrats!!

Re: April pick ups
Nice pinbacks Mike....I have to say I don't think I've seen the Tigers pin before.
I picked up some bargains from Hunts - don't have the stuff in hand yet as they haven't even sent invoices out yet, but I was happy to win them. Less than $200 with the juice.
I got this first lot for the Eddie Collins Domino Disc
I picked this lot up for the early Philly ticket stubs and a Ted's Creamy Root Beer Bottle which is not shown...I love Hunt's lots because it's sort of like opening a grab bag...not exactly sure what all is in this lot as it's not all shown in the pic.
The next two lots are from Charlie Wagner's estate - restaurant photo of Dom Dimaggio, Phil Rizzuto and others autographed.
