Golf, Baseball and Hopalong Cassidy
Hobbies and Interest:
As the headline suggest, I collect golf, baseball and Hopalong Cassidy items. Basically, it's these things:
Old, and very beat up, baseball cards - You don't have a card bad enough that I wouldn't want it.
Old baseball gloves - Again, beat up is ok, as long as they are made in the USA and I can still read the endorser's name. Right now there are about a hundred of these things laying around. Later I'll show the prize of the collection
Mini baseball bats - Louisville Sluggers with somebody's or something's name on them. Most are about 16" long.
Milk Glass Mugs - Most came from Hazel Atlas and are 3" tall.
Hope you enjoy these pages

The Great One-Timers Collection The Great One
My unique type set. I went thru the alphabetic cross reference and found every player who appeared in only one issue of major league baseball cards.
An entire collection of over 800 Moonlight Graham's. If I ever do a book this will be the subject. Even have the title courtesy of Shoeless Joe in Field of Dreams.
You Were Good!
Milk Glass Mugs Milk Glass Mugs
Peanut butter and advertising. Hazel Atlas made a ton of these things for that. Collection is over 50 and that includes only a few alphabet mugs.
Any of you collectors know who made the mugs without the HA mark?
Do you have BOTH Davy Crocket red mugs?
Has anyone ever seen the black Hoppy shown in the Western Character memorabilia book?
Collecting the way it should be.
