I find the holders clunky and bulky. It only authenticates the manager's signature, not the lineup card itself and I have no concerns that either the lineup card or signature are not real. And because lineup cards handled (and often folded and placed into the umpire's pocket) the condition...
On May 31, 1938 the Yankees played the Red Sox at Yankee Stadium. The day after 81,000 showed up for a Yankees/Red Sox doubleheader, there were just 6,917 in attendance to see the Yankees beat the Red Sox 12-5. Tommy Henrich, Bill Dickey and Red Rolfe hit home runs for the Yankees. Jimmie Foxx...
Really excited to pick up these two photos of Joe DiMaggio during his time as a soldier in WWII.
The first photo features: Walt Judnich, Jerry Priddy, Joe DiMaggio, Dario Lodigiani, and Mike McCormick.
The latter featured DiMaggio coming home on a HR in his first game in Hawaii. The legend...
Vintage lineup cards are always extremely tough to find, and often there is a story behind them.
I was able to purchase a small collection (6 pieces) of 1960's Yankees lineup cards from the son of a former boxer who also did some security gigs. He sent me a picture of him and his Dad with...
Was able to acquire this 1953 Kansas City Monarchs photo. The photo features a young Ernie Banks (6th from right) and supposedly came from a scrapbook from Monarchs teammate and former Philly Pancho Herrera.
Bought it framed, not knowing if it was a Type I (printed from original negative...

Randomly came across this thread and saw your questions now a year later.
In general, they cross out the player who comes out of the game and insert the new name, though not every...
Hey all,
I recently acquired Don Baylor's personal collection of lineup cards. There were a mix of lineup card styles, but included a decent number of dugout lineup cards, mostly from 1997. Lineup cards are roughly 8.5x14 and look like the ones in the image. Happy to send additional pictures of...
Purchased Don Baylor's personal collection of lineup cards from his time as Rockies manager. It was a mix of dugout lineup cards and umpire lineup cards.
Highlights included: 1st game in Diamondbacks history, Bobby Abreu 1st career HR, Larry Walker 3-HR game (MVP season) along with lots of...
No success on the Jackie ***** League ball
No success on the Jackie Minor league debut ticket. At this point I imagine it would be beyond any reasonable budget.
No success on the contract
I have not bought any enormous collections this year but did buy:
Collection of 1999 Mariners lineup...
I'm incredibly excited about this acquisition.
This program is from the GI World Series, played in Nurmberg in September 1945 at Soldier Field. The field, known as Zeppelin Field, was previously a site for German rallies, and H*tler had a large complex on the site.
Highly significant for its...
From a hobby standpoint, I think Scherzer's issue is that his first really great season was his 6th year in the Majors at age 28. By then he was on his 2nd team. He didn't win his 100th game until he was 30 at which point he was on his 3rd team. As of 2023, he has played for 6 teams.
He...
