Re: Show off your Pittsburgh Pirates items!

How are those in person as I was trying to win these myself and you outbid me, they look sweet.

I picked up some of the 1978-84 lot as well as a pair of 1979 gamers from that Heritage Auction

Hey mrozie,
Love the vintage Pirates collection, especially the 70's stuff! The two vintage flannels look great. Just love the 1938 as I used to oogle the one in Frankie Gustine's restaurant on Cardiac Hill when I was a kid. It was his game worn one from the same year, so to get one just like it is a big thrill for me, especially since it shared the same dugout as the Waner brothers, Traynor, Wagner, etc. Sorry you were the underbidder, but I just had to have it and the 1946 one.

Re: Show off your Pittsburgh Pirates items!

Wow mrozie, your collection looks more like a museum! Simply incredible pieces you have there. I especially like the framed and matted artist rendition of Three Rivers with the open end that was originally proposed (and eventually rejected as we all know). I still believe to this day had they gone with that design Three Rivers Stadium would still be standing today.

That's the acual painting from the proposal from 1962, one of my pride and joys

I don't blame you they're great! I have a pair of game used pants from 1938 that would have gone great with the jersey (Lloyd Waner's)

Here's a picture of my Dad on this fourth of July before leaving for the Pirate game. The Pirates are giving away free tickets to all veterans and their families! Dad is a Korean vet and is wearing a game used jersey I got him for his birthday when I first entered the hobby. What a class act by the Bucs to honor all veterans! Raise the Jolly Roger!

I have 21 Pirates bats, 1 Kevin Young jersey and a Al Martin Fielding Glove. Plus some autographs I got in the 1990's.

I was lucky enough to get this Andy Van Slyke game used hat at Pirates fest in 93.

Jealous!! Hopefully one of these days I will be able to pick up a Stargell gamer for my collection.

Was this the one of the Stargell's auctioned by Heritage Auctions recently?

Yes, I picked up this and the one converted into a Parker. I only really wanted this one but the modified one ended first, and I definitely didn't want to come away empty- handed so I made sure I was high bidder, and then I ended up with this one, too! Lol.....

Great looking items! Can you tell me about the bat rack that you used to hold the bats?
