Re: July Pick-ups
Great choice....I like the pre-1957 patch better than the Screaming Brave, as well.

Re: July Pick-ups
Thank you, Dave. I actually prefer the pre-1971 design better than the 1971 design. I'd like to get a Boston or Milwaukee Braves tomahawk style next, hopefully with the pre-1957 Brave patch.Leave a comment:

Great Shooting Star flannel. Do you have any plans to go after the even rarer flannel of this style...the 1971 version with orange as the primary letter/number color and NOB?

Picked up while on vaca in WA at the July 2nd game at Safeco field all 3 Justin Smoak gu bats at the team store. All 3 cracked one at the Dodgers,Padres, and Rays. Will posts pics soon. They had 3 Ackley bats but even I wouldnt pay $500 each for them thats just a bit too much.Leave a comment:

Re: July Pick-ups
I have decided to steer the focus of my collection to solely on game worn flannels. Here is my first one, and it is precisely the style I wanted to start with.
1970 Doug Rader Houston Astros “Shooting Star” Game Worn Flannel Jersey
A couple interesting and historical facts about Rader and this jersey – Arguably the best 3rd baseman in franchise history, “The Red Rooster” had one of his best offensive seasons in 1970, establishing a career high in home runs. Rader also won his 1st of 5 consecutive Gold Gloves in 1970 (1970-74). In addition, Rader’s Gold Glove in 1970 was the first Gold Glove won by a Houston player in franchise history (Colt .45s or Astros).
The jersey is all-original and unaltered. “ASTROS” and the shooting star logo are chenille stitched across the front in orange, navy, and white. The 12 on back is made of double layer orange and navy felt, which shows good use. There are 6 ventilation holes underneath each arm.
Thrilled to own this jersey!

A pretty sweet Hamilton SAM rookie bat. dated 8/10/07. Always looking for Cano bats, somehow finding Hamilton's along the way. Expensive damn hobby.

Re: July Pick-ups
Picked up this Delmarva Shorebirds vs. West Virginia Power lineup card. Significant because it's from the day Jim Thome was traded to the O's and Shorebird catcher Gabriel Lino was on the bench that bay but was traded before game time and subsequently blacked out on the card.Leave a comment:
