Who Collects Flannels?

[icollectDCsports]

I have a couple of Washington Senators flannels.

Love flannels, but only have two. I collect Cincinnati Reds items and have Vada Pinson's 1966 road and Leo Cardenas's 1967 road.

Great thread topic! I have the following six flannels:

1938 Ray Berres Pittsburgh Pirates Road
1941 Harry Danning New York Giants Road
1942 "Muddy" Ruel Chicago White Sox Road
1946 Nick Strincevich Pittsburgh Pirates Road
1960 Haywood Sullivan Boston Red Sox Road
1970 Pete Ward New York Yankees Road

I prefer the road flannels because they have the city name on the front.

Wow LMU. Would love to hear what knits you have. That's a heck of a collection.

I have one MLB flannel. It's a 1954 Orioles road of Mike Blyzka. I have 4 minor league flannels from Kansas teams. I pretty much just collect the flannels of minor league Kansas teams.

[hrvatwill]

Holy cow, LMU, nothing short of incredible!!!!! Feel free to PM me or email me at hrvatwill@aol.com with any Pirates items you may be enticed into moving :-)
