~~~The Official Anything and Everything YANKEES Thread~~~

[Yanks2151]

I did not see a thread like this for the Yanks. I am hoping to see your ANYTHING Yankees. Although I am really trying to limit what I am collecting I just keep collecting anything Yankees. Please share your collections, pickup ups, pulls, stuff to trade the Yankees guys, Anything and Everything Yankees.


My main player focus is Paul O’neill but I promise to post other players new and vintage. FCB has finally got me scanning so this thread should motivate me to get more done. I will start the year O’neill made his way to the Yankees 1993.

Just a random auto I just scanned for auto binder:

I visit the stadium about 5 or 6 games a year and these are some pics from my cell phone when the old stadium was being torn down. I would just stand there in disbelief even though I knew it was happening.

I hope this thread keeps rolling. Let’s see some Yankees stuff, anything and everything.

I was lucky enough to be at Yankee Stadium to see Dwight Gooden throw a no-hitter against a stacked Seattle Mariners team. After sitting in the snow on opening day the Yankees gave out free tickets to one of three games and I was lucky enough to pick the no-hit game. My ticket stub was in perfect shape minus the hole punch for being a complimentary ticket. So I started a quest to get all the stubs I can of big games. Here are the 3 perfect game stubs thrown by Larsen, Wells and Cone.

One of my favorites growing up when I was young. I have come to a crawl with Mattingly pickups. I recently decided if I get anymore Mattingly items it would be during his playing years:

I made it to two games vs Red Sox in the old stadium

I've been working on a project - Yankees walkoff post season walkoff hits - a card for each Yankee in the year of their walkoff hits.

I will start with this one and work forward as I get time:

1939 WS Game 1 October 4, 9th inning, 2-1 NY final - Bill Dickey singles off Paul Derringer scoring Charlie Keller.

Just got these in my latest thrift store hunts... Pm if interested.

Can't believe there was never a Yankees thread, most other teams have one...great thinking Kevin.

tkd7 - Neat idea for a project.

One of my favorite cards in the collection.

@nevermore I've been meaning to pick up a Sheppard card, he was the Yankees for a long time

1949 WS Game 1, October 5 Tommy Henrich HR, off Don Newcombe, Brooklyn 0-0, 9th 0 out, no runners on base. Final Score: 1-0 Series: 1-0 NY. Henrich's blast leading off the 9th was the first walk-off home run in Series history, and provided the game's only run.

Yankee Scouts ring

1950 WS Game 3, October 6, 9th inning, 4-3 final vs. Philadelphia, Jerry Coleman singles off Russ Meyer scoring Gene Woodling.

RIP Jerry

Im loving your project with the Post Season walk off hits, keep them coming. In honor of the passing of Mr. Coleman I will share these:

Here is a weird item I came across and never got any info on this. I found this picture in a mall that had a section set up like a fleamarket/tag sale. I noticed it was Billy Martin and he was wearing what appearsto be a hat with Reggie Jackson on it. I know the two had a rocky relationship but does anyone know the significance of this picture. What are your guys guesses or opinions. I have this in my Photobucket but the actual picture has been putaway for years if any more details are needed I would have to find it.

Im loving your project with the Post Season walk off hits, keep them coming.

Thanks! nice tribute to Jerry Coleman.

Here is the next one - works with the previous post

1953 WS Game 6, October 5, 9th inning, 4-3 final over the Dodgers, Billy Martin singles of Clem Labine scoring Hank Bauer.

 

[Yanks2151]

Great Billy Martin card. Did some random scanning. I will add this:

Well I am 3/4 of the way through 1995 scanning the fronts and backs of my O'neill collection. This seems to be the birth year (at least for O'neill) of the never ending parallels. Here is the '95 Stadium Club reg card. The inserts had the parallels too:

 

[tkd7]

Love it. Paul O'Neill was always a favorite.

Organizing some oddball stuff. Doing a little upgrading on conditions. Scanned what I had before a big COMC purchase:

 

[mrmopar]

Even a Dodger fan will have some Yankee stuff floating around…so this is what I had in the existing photo bucket collection. I'm out now!

 

[Yanks2151]

I have a very large collection of Yankees error cards. Posting them here motivates me to do some scanning. Here is a 2000 Topps Bernie Williams card with upside down foil titled Carlos Perez. The card was way off center as well. Hard to believe these slip by a QC in the factory:
