July Pick Ups

Re: July Pick Ups

Here's an article I found several months ago regarding Scott's initially receiving the number 36 and then asking for his no. 60.

If this article is accurate, Scott never wore no. 36 in Spring Training.

Re: July Pick Ups

genius, nice vintage Notre Dame piece. Now I know who bought that jersey (I got the notification from collegejersey when they listed it). Did they include a letter of provenance from the original player or owner of the jersey? Old school ND pieces are few and far between - would love to see pics of any other vintage ND stuff you have.

No. Where did all of the uniforms go? ND jerseys from the "Ara era" were so plain and flimsy (unlike tough to get Steeler jerseys for example which are beautiful durenes). Seems like they would have just given them all away to a Catholic high school. Love this one, have only two others (a Faust home jersey and a warmup from the UCLA basketball game where the Irish broke their 88-game streak). I've posted both of them somewhere on this site!

Figaro's jersey? Wow. Awesome find. How did you manage that already?

Carlos Lee's game used 2007 all star game jersey, he only had one at bat during the game. Front, back, sleeves and seams along the shoulder match up perfect.

Marc Himelstein from the Tigers was very nice in getting me this jersey after Figaro was sent down after his second start. Marc is very easy to work with, willing to take time to awnser questions, and willing to take the time to find awnsers to questions he can't awnser off the bat.

1966 Notre Dame gamer, National Championship season. Nice vintage Champion tag in collar.

That Thomas nameplate is awesome, did you buy it from the Mint?

Re: July Pick Ups

So I just recieved that last bit of Thomas stuff that I have purchased over the past two months. Thanks goes out to a couple members here who helped me add some depth to the Thomas collection. The Rawlings bat is cracked but has an indentation from where Thomas hit the ball...perhaps it cracked because of this. The Mizuno wristbands are from before he signed his Reebok deal. Both pair of batting gloves are attributed to his MVP years with the white fingered gloves being signed. The locker nameplate is from opening day 2004. Hope you guys enjoy these as much as I do.
