And now we come to the booth of hobby pioneer Leland's of Bohemia, NY. First up was a 40 1/2" wide by 17 3/4" tall by Giants Ball Team.JPG (207506 bytes) 9 1/2" deep, light green painted wooden box with red trim, with "Giant's Ball Team" inscribed on the side. no price, it was consigned, 40 1/2" wide would be long enough for most bats so maybe it was a bat box for the New York Giants. Next was a cardstock, tri-fold style advertising window display for Beech Nut Tobacco. The sign featured a panoramic photograph of Yankee Stadium full of fans during the 1926 World Series, 61 3/4" wide by 37 1/2" tall Beech Nut 1926 WS Sign.JPG (214156 bytes) (when framed), $5,000.00. Next was a scrapbook full of the earliest Yale sports programs for many sports including the 1876 Yale Harvard football program...to many to go thru...except to say it's the best Yale scrapbook I've ever seen or expect., $50,000.00, extra shots here and here.

 

Next was what appeared to be a cardstock advertising sign, 23" tall by 15" wide, for A.C. Hunt & Co. from Wood River Illinois., priced at $600.00...The sign featured a large photo of a store window, presumably A.C. Hunt & Co.'s window, which had an advertising display of Dizzy Dean Trousers. There were seven pairs of trousers draped, interspersed with small advertising posters for Dizzy Dean Trousers. The posters were die cut nearly in the shape of pennants and included a photo, apparently, of the Dean Brothers in uniform. They look like cool little paper posters but at dead center of the display was something more interesting...Dizzy Dean Trousers Sign Close in.JPG (36499 bytes)that is, what appeared to be a die cut easel back standup advertising sign for Dizzy Dean Trousers featuring two men in trousers flanking the sides, no doubt the Dean brothers. The copy read "They're here - DIZZY DEAN TROUSERS - Champions of Style and Quality". Then at bottom center the brothers, presumably the brothers, were featured in uniform. There appeared to be some mini bats directly in front of the sign, with some full sized ones to the side. I would estimate the width of the sign to be about 3/4 the width of the full sized bats. Next was a primo condition c1930's football uniform, minus cleats. The ensemble included pants, a friction jersey, and leather helmet, $3,200.00. was displayed full stature on a manikin.

Next up was what could be considered a candidate for best thing at the show. A circa 1890 dark blue baseball uniform with a draw-string jersey by Spalding, $7,500.00, see photo collage above...One of the best looking I've ever seen, particularly considering its dark blue color. Leland's had just the jersey on a manikin torso. I mentioned to Josh what a great piece...He told me the pants had an original belt no one had seen before....I asked for the pants and it took them about half hour to find...I'd have put the football friction jersey on the torso, put the pants away... and put the full 1890 draw-string uniform, pants and jersey on the full manikin...It was really a head turner. I took detailed close in shots of it partly anticipating my bud John Gennantonio would be asking me detailed nuances I wouldn't know...

 

 

Next was a c1890 pneumatic chest protector by Reach, $2,500.00. Next was a 26" wide by 20" tall, c1900 tin baseball score keeper, Stall & Dean BB Score Daily.JPG (218395 bytes)advertising Stall and Dean baseball uniforms, $10,000.00...Rarely seen. Next was what could be considered the power piece of the whole show...an 1880's stone litho advertising poster for Allen & Ginter cigarettes. The poster advertised Allen&Ginter World's Champions Poster.JPG (176622 bytes)"The World's Champions" card set and it was stunning...should have been the lit up center piece of the booth...they could have charged admission..., 30" tall by 17" wide, $75,000.00. See accompanying placard here. Next was a piece that stopped me in my tracks...I hadn't seen a lot of great pieces at the show and caught this one on my last day...and it had me...ex$ept it would have dug into my whole trip and I left without it. I'm referring to a great 11" wide by 8 1/2" tall c1890 cardstock poster advertising the N.Y. Sporting Times, $2,500.00. Next was a c1910, 18" wide by 16" tall University of Michigan football team photo, $750.00. Next was a Coca Cola advertising sign featuring Reese "Goose " Tatum, and Marques Haynes, as "Stars of the fabulous Harlem Globetrotters". The sign was in it's original period frame measuring about 37" wide by 24" tall, $1,800.00. Below are walk thru shots of the Leland's booth.

SHARED BOOTH OF BRYAN DEC left, AND KIRK KOVACS right

 

Now we come to the shared booth of Bryan Dec of BDecSports.com from Lapeer Michigan and Kirk Kovacs of KovacsSports.com from Curtice Ohio. 

We'll start with Brian's things first. MichiganTinCupStitchTAGGED.jpg (409929 bytes)First up for Bryan's things was a 1911 tin cup with a paper label around it featuring a team photo the University of Michigan's 1911 football squad with the inscription "Champions of the West". On another side of the cup was the inscription "University of Michigan Union - SMOKER - Nov. 28, 1911". May have been a promotion by a tobacco company, 2 1/2" tall by 3 1/2" wide, $575.00. Next was a c1906 die cut football shaped program for a play titled Strongheart" starring silent film star Robert Edeson. The play was running eight years prior Edeson's first silent film in 1914, and was apparently written, and perhaps produced and directed by William C. de Mille, brother of Cecil B. DeMille, 10" tall by 5 1/2", $295.00. I believe it included this promotional photo collage sheet of Edeson. Next was a blue and bluish white color porcelain stein with a relief of golfers, 5 1/2" tall, $375.00. Next up was a signed Gene Tunney eight by ten photo, $395.00. see pict7060.jpg (152525 bytes)Next were two pen and ink drawings of football players by Roy Gamble 1887-1972, One was dated 1904 the other 1905, likely illustrations for a publication. The 1904 one featured two players, one laying on the ground holding the ball, the other player kicking off, signed Gamble 04', 13 1/4" tall by 8" wide, $1,500.00. The other 1905 drawing was of a single player who appeared about to kick the ball, 16" tall by 11" wide, $1,200.00. Very rarely do you see original artworks of football that early. Last mention for Bryan's things was a 21" wide by 11 3/4" tall poster for Jarvis Sporting Goods Co. featuring an oval portrait photo of Ty Cobb and referred to him as Vice President, not for sale

 

Next we look at the things Kirk had...first up for Kirk was an 11" tall by 6" wide c1895 paper broadside poster advertising a Syracuse vs Cornell 1878 BB Broad $1500.00.JPG (169945 bytes)baseball game between the  Cleveland Spiders Broad $1500.00.JPG (169082 bytes)Cleveland Spiders and Chambersburg, of Pennsylvania, $1,500.00. had a lot of interesting info including rosters for both teams and their positions. extra shot here Next was another broadside, this one much earlier...an c1878 paper broadside poster advertising a baseball game between Syracuse University and Cornell University, 18 1/2" tall by 12 1/2" wide, $1,500.00. Really a great baseball broadside...gave the year, month, and even day of the week...The attribute of a date is priceless on a broadside...nice selection of fonts which spoke to it's era...a real gem and very rare, especially being from the 70's.

Next up was the earliest item at the show...even older than that c1840 snuff box Glen Mechanick had...an 1834 copy of the book titled "The Book of Sports" by Robin Carver, published by Lilly, Coleman & Holden of Boston MA. see photo collage above I'm not familiar with the book but being it's American not English from that early I automatically take it very serious. 

 

Next up in Kirk's booth was a celluloid stick pin featuring a pennant inscribed: front.jpg (191021 bytes)Pittsburgh Pennant Winners 1909, Kirk advised it was issued by Hermes Ice Cream of Pittsburgh PA, 2 1/4" tall by 1 7/8" wide, $1,200.00. Next was a porcelain plate inscribed around the perimeter "The Pennant Winners 1889 - New York Base Ball Club", and featured little illustrations of baseballs and crossed baseball bats, 8 1/4" wide, $2,400.00. see photo of back here Last mention for Kirk's things was a terrific framed, round shaped composite of small portrait photo of the 1909 Detroit Tigers. The composite was inscribed "Detroit Tigers - Champions 1909", encircled by eighteen charging tigers, 9 3/8" wide excluding frame, $6,900.00. see close in photo here
