The 2013 National By Carlton Hendricks
PAGE 5
Next we come to the booth of the prolific Glen Mechanick of Mechancik's Historical Gallery from Clifton N.J. First up is a c1880 wooden pencil box (extra close in shots here, here, here, and here), with an illustration of what looks like a baseball team arriving for a game featuring ten players lined up across the front in parade fashion. Of all the antique illustrated pencil baseball boxes this one has always been my favorite, little blemish on the right, 7 3/4" wide by 2 1/8" deep by 1 3/8" tall, $500.00. Next was a non sport c1890 die cut of a New York train on elevated tracks with a horse drawn trolley below, 10 1/2" by 7 1/4", $375.00. Next was another non sport item, a c1880 celluloid ink blotter featuring a great illustration of a bull dog, advertising "The Bulldog Shaft Eye", 7 5/8" wide by 3" deep, $385.00. Next was a celluloid pocket mirror featuring portraits of the 1909 Pittsburgh Pirates, and inscribed "Pittsburg National League Champions" (Pittsburgh misspelled), Honus Wagner at top center, 2 1/4" wide, $3,000.00.
Next was a set of twelve stamps each featuring a different player from the 1914 Yale baseball team, see photos above. I saw them and knew nothing about them except they were striking...but after viewing the photos again for this story....if I was ever going to have some stamps in my collection...these would be the ones!!, each stamp measured 2 3/4" tall by 1 7/8" wide, $600.00. According to an auction description in which these twelve or another were auctioned on Lew Lipset's OldJudge.com website on April 4, 2013, it was a complete set. I would speculate putting together a complete set of these could take a life time to find them one by one, if it could even be done. Made by Prichard Publishing Company of new York City. Prichard also made like stamps for the New York Giants baseball club same year 1914.
Next was another Pirates National League champions pin, See back here, this one for 1901, featured Wagoner, and Jack Chesbro among the others, little smaller than the 09' at 1 1/2" wide, $6,000.00. Next was another portrait pin back button inscribed "The Indians of Soo City 1900" Could tell it was Sioux City Iowa by the photographers label on the back, $1,500.00. Next was a Burley Boy pocket tobacco tin, good shape, 4 1/8" tall by 3 3/8" wide, $600.00. Next was a little c1840 snuff box with a painted scene of an early ball and bat game in progress, 2 5/8" wide by 1 3/8" deep by 7/16" tall, $1,500.00. more shots here and here. This was certainly in the exotic category, and a very advanced tobacco collectible. Remarkable condition! Next was a c1890's photo of ladies playing golf, great clarity, ladies were sure properly dressed!, 10 1/2" wide by 8" tall, believe that incl. frame, $750.00. close in shot here.
Last mention for Glen's booth was one of the most memorable things I saw at the show...and the most unusual I've ever seen at a National...Two c1895 matching tin panels, 24 1/4" long by 4 3/4" tall, featuring color lithographed illustrations of boys playing football...all wearing lace-up smock union suits, see photos above, pastel green and red being the two primary colors...Glen didn't not know what they were used for...I didn't for sure but my first thought was they were used as the sides of toy drums. I recall a toy football drum John Kanuit auctioned that was at least similar. However it's been twenty years and I can't recall if the illustrations were the same...24 1/4" circumference and 4 3/4" tall would be about right for a drum...If I had to lay money on it I'd say drum...but still not totally satisfied that's what they were...Glen seemed to think wall/ceiling trim....big mystery.., Price $1,500.00.
