Picked up a couple of WWII baseballs recently. This one just arrived over the weekend.

Trying to pinpoint the event at which it was signed. It's a WWII baseball signed by 22 vets including Ted Williams, Johnny Pesky, Bob Lemon and Schoolboy Rowe. If anyone has any insights please share!

No love for Fred Hutch? That is probably one of the tougher/better sigs on that ball.

Also a gorgeous looking sig.

Wasn't picking favorites, just listed a few. Been reading and researching the guys on this ball along with the others I have. Amazing generation of individuals. (Some real jerks as well lol)

Nice Goldie's D2R!

I was at my friends auction house moving some bulk stuff and to my surprise he had this there. He ended up giving it to me. It's the original painting (not print) from Jim(James) Kelly in 1990. It may have been called "Swing Away". It's 32"x45" and done on wood/board material (the name escapes me). It's pretty sweet and I've seen the print available before but to own the original is pretty cool IMO.

Here is another pickup, thought this was a cool magazine being pre-Bulls. pre-Rockets. I'm not sure how rare it is, I assume harder to find than his early SIs...??? Having both the HOFers on there is extra cool IMO. I know it's basketball, but thought I'd share.
