Regional Cullivan’s Fireside Set Celebrated 1910 World Series Champion Athletics

May 4, 2020 By Anson Whaley

In 1910, the Philadelphia Athletics won 102 regular season games, easily winning the American League pennant. They became World Series champions after defeating the Chicago Cubs, four games to one. Even the Cubs' lone win in that series was a struggle as the team needed ten innings to pull out a narrow 4-3 victory. The Athletics won all of the other games by at least three runs … [Read more...] about Regional Cullivan’s Fireside Set Celebrated 1910 World Series Champion Athletics

Rare Monarch Typewriters Postcards Set Featured Philadelphia Athletics

November 20, 2019 By Anson Whaley

Postcards are often among the more inexpensive types of pre-war sports cards. Ones with generic subjects, especially, can often be purchased for $10 or even less, depending on condition. Other postcards featuring real players, however, are a different story. And in some cases, the postcards are not only expensive, but rare, as is the case with the Monarch Typewriters Postcards … [Read more...] about Rare Monarch Typewriters Postcards Set Featured Philadelphia Athletics

Scrapbook Surrenders 1910 Philadelphia Athletics Photo

February 3, 2019 By Rich Mueller

Connie Mack was building a dynasty and at least on one day, his Philadelphia Athletics dressed as nattily as he did.  Now, a rare photograph of the 1910 World Series champions is hitting the auction block for the first time. RMY Auctions is offering the 8x10 photo, still attached to an old scrapbook of Philadelphia baseball clippings, in its February Collectors … [Read more...] about Scrapbook Surrenders 1910 Philadelphia Athletics Photo

Original 1905 Rube Waddell Studio Photo at Auction

April 2, 2018 By Rich Mueller

If you followed baseball as the 19th century became the 20th, you knew his name.  Cy Young was great. Christy Mathewson was becoming a superstar.  But if you argued that Rube Waddell was the best in the game, you'd have plenty of support.  He couldn't stay married. He chased fire trucks, was easily distracted and drank a lot.  But when Waddell was on the … [Read more...] about Original 1905 Rube Waddell Studio Photo at Auction

Jack Quinn’s 1929 World Series Ring Holds Hurler’s Historic Place

February 12, 2018 By Rich Mueller

1929 Philadelphia Athletics World Series ring Jack Quinn

Jack Quinn didn’t reach the big leagues until age 25 in 1909 but he made up for it. Quinn pitched from the era of T206 to the dawn of bubble gum cards. While his age was always a bit of a mystery, Quinn was still pitching in relief as he pushed toward age 50 and won a pair of World Series titles as a member of Connie Mack’s Philadelphia A’s in 1929 and … [Read more...] about Jack Quinn’s 1929 World Series Ring Holds Hurler’s Historic Place

Philadelphia Story: Connie Mack’s Long-Lost Ledger Books at Auction

August 6, 2017 By Bob D'Angelo

It’s an irresistible story, starring a Dumpster diver from the 1970s and baseball Hall of Famer Connie Mack. Mack managed the Philadelphia Athletics for 50 years and remained the team owner until it was sold and moved to Kansas City. A former player with an eye for talent, the “Grand Old Man” of baseball did not part easily with his money. “I love that old guy,” … [Read more...] about Philadelphia Story: Connie Mack’s Long-Lost Ledger Books at Auction

Traded for Jackson: Bris Lord’s 1910 A’s Championship Pin Coming to Auction

March 16, 2017 By Rich Mueller

Bris Lord 1910 World Series championship pin

Connie Mack may have disagreed but the move he made in the middle of the 1910 season has to go down as one of the most lopsided in baseball history.  The patriarch of the Philadelphia Athletics acquired outfielder Bris Lord from Cleveland, a player who Mack insisted played a key role in the A’s run to the World Series title in 1910—and again in 1911.  In return, … [Read more...] about Traded for Jackson: Bris Lord’s 1910 A’s Championship Pin Coming to Auction

Al Simmons Photo Used for 1933 Goudey at Auction

Al Simmons 1933 Goudey

Go to the ballpark at the right time, especially during spring training, and it’s possible you’ll see a card company photographer snapping pictures of players to use in an upcoming series.  Decades before bubble gum cards, card makers acquired photos wherever they could find them and turned them into artwork used to create cardboard heroes. RMY Auctions is currently offering … [Read more...] about Al Simmons Photo Used for 1933 Goudey at Auction

Beast on the Brink: 1931 Portrait of Jimmie Foxx at Auction

October 20, 2015 By Rich Mueller

Jimmie Foxx 1931 photo

Jimmie Foxx already had three full and three part-time seasons under his belt when he arrived at the Philadelphia Athletics’ spring training camp in Florida in the late winter of 1931. He was still only 24 years old. The RMY Auctions Photo of the Day is an original 5x7 Acme News photo of the future Hall of Famer, who was approaching the zenith of his lengthy career.  … [Read more...] about Beast on the Brink: 1931 Portrait of Jimmie Foxx at Auction

Rare Chief Bender Photo Emerges

January 7, 2015 By Rich Mueller

Chief Bender

“If everything depended on one game, I just used Albert – the greatest money pitcher of all time.” Connie Mack’s assessment was right on the money.  Charles Albert “Chief” Bender finished his long career with a .625 winning percentage and helped pitch Mack’s Philadelphia Athletics become a tour de force in the American League during the first part of the 20th century. Our … [Read more...] about Rare Chief Bender Photo Emerges
