1984Echoes

There you go... pretty self-explanatory... "A.C. Dietsche" Detroit, Mich., 1907. Postcard. You wouldn't know the pricing but it's in Card Price Books (Beckett or Sports Collector's Digest will do... but the big annual book, not the monthly's). David nailed it...

Wicked movie.

The only thing I would say to that is... Don't F up the O-Line. I would wait on Vatai until he gets pushed out the door by better play. And that means at the END of Training Camp next year. What if Evan Brown gets an injury? What if a mid-round draft pick for O-Line depth isn't good enough.. at least yet? Stenberg? I'm going to take a guess here that Vatai doesn't get the boot until the end of training camp next year, at the earliest. I don't think Campbell, or Fraley, or Holmes wants to mess up that line. So Holmes will defer to Fraley/ Campbell's decision on that timing...

I was thinking that was postcard looking but, wanted to see the back just to confirm...

Show the back of the Cobb card.. I may be able to help out...

I'll stop with these... 1936 National Chicle "Fine Pen" premiums of Hank Greenberg, Goose Goslin & Roger Hornsby":

1935 (4-in-1 with Mel Ott) & 1936 (Pepper Martin) Goudeys, 1955 Bowman Ernie Banks and Mickey Mantle, and a 1929 Kashin (R-316) Pie Traynor:

Some pins from 1910 (Sweet Caporal Tobacco) and 1932 (Tattoo Orbit Gum), a couple of Cracker Jack cards from 1915 including Rabbit Maranville, and a few 1933 & 1934 Goudeys:

Some other Tigers odds and ends (the stamp in the middle is a George Burke photo stamp of Jimmie Foxx, obviously not a Tiger), surrounded by two unused World Series tickets from 1968, a W-517 of Lu Blue (another Browns in a Detroit cap!!!), 1955 Topps Doubleheader J.W. Porter and Mickey Cochrane from 1936, R-312 Premium series:

Interestingly, in 1941, because of the war breaking out for the U.S., Play Ball experimented with pure paper cards instead of cardboard (not certain how cardboard was part of the war effort, but, anyways...); very hard to get these paper cards in any decent condition, but I did get a few:

Interesting players from the 1941 Pay Ball set (I have half of the set... working on the rest...); couple Tigers include Barney McCoskey and Tommy Bridges. I don't have any of the "big guns" yet:

Some of the things I collect Tigers are odds and ends... Don't be mad but... I've got a 100 boxes (hyperbole) and I'm not certain which one has my framed Tigers. One of my favorites being a 1935 Wheaties of Mickey Cochrane in which I also placed a 1935 Tigers World Series Ticket in the same frame below Mickey. I framed a 1937 Wheaties Charlie Gehringer that is also quite colorful and beautiful. I also have framed 1939 Goudey Premiums (large 5 x 7 "cards" but more like paper, with "How To" diagrams and explanations of "how to turn a double play" for example, on the back). I have the full "B" set of these premiums (the "A" set is a smaller version with twice as many "cards"...) including Hank Greenberg. I have Charlie Gehringer too, although it's an "A", he's not in the larger "B" set... I do however, have scans of a 1904 T-204 Ramly Tusrkish Cigarettes card (all the rage back then), 1961 and 1962 Topps Stamps of Al Kaline, and a 1964 Auravision Record of Al Kaline. This also I have the complete set of...: Second pic includes a 1960's Detroit Tiger "tattoo" souvenir with original protective sleeve, a 1907 H.M. Taylor postcard of the Detroit Tigers, a 1965 Topps gold embossed Harry Heilmann, a 1940 Play Ball America Harry Heilmann and a 1954 rookie Red Heart Dog Food Harvey Kuenn... (third pic shows the backs of these... PLUS 1962 Post Cereal cards of Norm Cash & Al Kaline... notice Cash's "corked bat" induced .361 BA and 41 HR's...):

A closer look at T-206 HOF'ers, and two cards not yet shown in the previous pic... HOF'ers Fred Clarke, Miller Huggins (Babe Ruth's manager), fiery John McGraw, and Rube Waddell. The two cards not yet shown are Sheckard, and Larry Doyle from the Giants. Doyle is not a T-206 however, he's an M-114 Sporting Life from 1911. Also, I have almost all Piedmont backs, a few Sweet Caporal (Thomas, on the bottom, which is why I showed him again although he's not a HOF'er), and the one rare Old Mill back (Stephens, on the bottom, he's also in the prior pic, not a HOF'er)...

This is my T-206 collection (99% of it):

A few other stars from that year:

Loads of Yankees Dodgers and Giants in the set (that's how Topps got lots of people to buy the cards and also, how they started beating out Bowman... plus, just much, much, much more beautiful cards than Bowman...):

Graded Stars:

I never was huge on collecting autographs so I have close to nil... However, a huge exception is that I put together a complete 1953 Topps set and, therefore, when they came out with the Archives reprint set for 1953 - I, like countless/ numerous others, chased after every living baseball player that was in that set, for an autograph. I've got all autos that are possible from that set. Although I did not get all of the following autos myself (including the graded "Authentic Auto" by PSA or SGA of Mantle, Mays and Aaron), her are a few of those cards: Tigers or Tiger-related (Groth and Virgil Trucks had just been traded to the Browns... for nothing good... notice Groth says Browns but is wearing a Tigers cap):

This is also true. But I like your other post even more in which you said that you supported/ voted in the name of democracy over the possibility of a slight improvement in one area of policy.

This.

But all those deaths under Biden are unvaccinated Republicans. Nothing Biden can do about peoples' stupidity.

Barbara Streisand nose and I can only guess from the profile pic... looks as well... Hmmmm... A little bit... yep.

And pitchers hitting a cumulative .050 is a waste of time. Gimme the DH. And rotate position players into the DH for a half day off per casimir's plan...

Bertuzzi with 3 points in the win... 1 goal.
