Re: November 2014 Pickups

Nice Orioles helmet Clint.

I just won this 1971 Astros jersey worn by Bob Watson. I have been going after one of these for a long time, and also looking for the previous 'shooting star' design with the dark star. I think it was affordable because Watson's name had been removed from the back.

Also, just finished restoring this ca. 1900-10 jersey. It had 20 or so moth holes in the fabric and also in the navy felt.

I like to wear these when I do shows, so both will see modern 'action'.

Rickey Henderson 1989 Rawlings ALCS with moderate use.
I am assuming this bat was signed by the team at the conclusion of the ALCS or WS that year meaning the bat was used for an at bat or two during the ALCS or WS. The WS baseballs had blue ink in '89.

Re: November 2014 Pickups

Picked up some cleats that I'm eager to have inspected by my coach... Based on the photos I think this style was worn 82-84. Brett had a SpotBilt endorsement in the late 70s - early 80s before Puma switching to Puma in mid-80s and Nike after that.

Re: November 2014 Pickups

Just curious.. Has the helmet been repainted?? Just looks very neat for being 50 years old.

That was the same question I asked before purchasing it. It's all original. The pictures make it look perfect but in hand you can see light use or storage marks. It's not one of those crappy remakes that guy on ebay was faking.

Here's a photo of Powell with a similar helmet that looks pretty good too. The Orioles had no rhyme or reason to their helmets as far as I can tell. Powell is wearing an older style in this photo and it looks great. Not sure who is in the back of Powell but he is wearing the later style cartoon Oriole and it's all scratched up.

Re: November 2014 Pickups

It looks age-appropriate to me. But I have to admit - I needed repainting when I turned 50.

Very happy to add this mid to late 60's Orioles helmet.

Re: November 2014 Pickups

While it was purchased to flip, I was pleasantly surprised with a baseball I purchsed on eBay. The description was basically "Official game-used MLB basebll sealed in cube", or words to that nature. I got it at a nice price. It came in, unsealed it from the cube, and was delighted to learn that it wasn't just a standard MLB baseball...it was one of the Opening Day versions with the silver print and logos on it. THAT was fun.
