DiMaggio Lighter Display

Huggins
& Scott Auction Page
|
This
was a steal. I almost bid on it myself, except it
would have crashed the party in the only place I
have to put it. If I replaced the Big
League Bat Lighter display I have in my curio,
it would have been wider and messed up everything.
One of these auctioned in an August 2006 Leland's
auction for $2,062.57. Then another one was
auctioned in a February 2007 Leland's-Gaynor
monthly auction for $1,058.77. Now the photos on
the Lelands.com site of the
one that sold for $2,062.57 and the
one that sold for $1,058.77 look
identical, so I don't know if Leland's experienced
a roll-back or what. As for Huggins & Scott's
dating it to the 1950's, I'm not seeing it. From
the looks of the lighters, more like late
1960's-early 1970's to me. Nevertheless it's a
killer piece. I think this one in Huggins Scott
slipped thru the cracks. The
moral to the story? Keep an eye out for Huggins
& Scott Auctions and nail the sleepers!

William
Law Anderson
(1879-1910) won four U.S. Opens (1901,
1903-05) and four Western Opens (1902,
1904, 1908-09) and the Southern
California Open in 1899 (which was the
first attempt to organize a State
Championship, played over 36 holes). He
is the only player to win the US Open
using two different balls, the gutta
percha and the rubber core. It has been
said that Anderson at his best, was as
good as either Walter Hagen or Bobby
Jones......

commentary:
This is one
of the rarest football programs there is. I've seen a
hand full of the 1875-80 Harvard Yale programs over the
years, but for some reason these prehistoric Cal
Stanford ones seem to be a lot more rare. It's 10"
tall by 7" wide, has a thin strip of tape on spine,
and a small crease in the bottom right corner. This was
the third Cal Stanford game, the first two were both in
1892. Note, I had a real hard time posting this as I
have the poster!

This
extra wide style print is what's called a "yard
long". They were produced from about 1900 to 1920.
It's one of the best sports yard longs. There are two
other football ones as I recall, and some baseball ones
I think. This one has been adhered to a wood board, but
still looks good. A great football display piece |
