December '17 pickups

Picked up an early 2012 Giancarlo Big Stick, the one he has in photo. Matches good in detail, but my paint shop expertise needs work, as in placing the little bat next to his with the red circles, etc.

Picked up a Dwight Clark game used sideline jacket from the 83-84 seasons. Wilson size 44 with a detachable hood and mud stains on the bottom letters. Found some examples of other players' jackets from that era. Looks like they last used these player identifiable jackets in SB XIX vs Miami.

Courtesy of Howard Wolf's eBay listings, a Dave Clark brick red Astros GU jersey I won was waiting for me when I got back home from New Jersey yesterday. Howard is pretty knowledgeable on baseball jerseys, and is my go-to guy on Phillies gamers if I have a question I don't know the answer to. Most of his offerings are commons and minor stars, and many of the superstar pieces he's offered are described as game issued (like Marlins shirts of Ichiro, Stanton, and the late Jose Fernandez), but he opens his items very reasonably, and most of them can be one for prices notably better than you'll find on comparable items at card shows or on dealer websites. I know Clark, have often swapped items he has interest in for memorabilia, and now have 3 of his GU jerseys, all coaches pieces: this and 2 Tigers items, a BP jersey and a Negro League TBTC gamer. My next goal, if it stays available while I get the funds for it, is a Cubs gamer from his playing career.

Thanks for the heads-up, but that jersey has been on eBay for well over a year. By the time he joined the Pirates, Clark was a veteran in The Show, and I don't believe he ever wore #68 with them. My guess is that it's a spring training jersey of a different Clark. The Rawlings tag would date it to 1992, at the earliest.

This was the last regular season commemorative I was missing for 2017.

Pretty cool logo's. What is your collection criteria, and how many bb's were there this year.

Sorry for the delayed response. I didn’t see the post. Pictured is what I have this year from the MLB regular season and spring training in 2017. All of those are authenticated by MLB. There was also the WBC and WBC qualifier.

http://www.facebook.com/HistoryOfOrg...lTheCollection is the complete collection. The minor leagues is actually the prime focus, but it’s more about telling the story of the game through the ball. MLB is obviously a pretty big part of that story.

Popinjaysnamesir that's a great looking collection! Thanks for posting pics, I was hoping you would.

I appreciate the compliment.

I mistakenly said all of those were authenticated. The Naval ball is the exception. As far as I understand, none were authenticated from that game. Someone I know went and caught one.
