Auction Watch: Reviewing My Watch List (2/8/12)

A quick check-in on some of the Phillies memorabilia I have recently been following on my ebay watch list:

Program from first night game in Major League History


Auction end date: 25d remaining
Current bid: None - buy now for $399

Description: A Cincinnati Reds game scorecard from May 5, 1935 - the first night game in Major League history.  The lineup card is noted with the event with type-written comment - "Lineup, 1st Night Game played by Cincinnati".

Comments: This scorecard is "out of my league" with a $400 price-tag - but, it is noteworthy in that it is one of those unique items that could be collected by a Phillies, Reds or Baseball collector.


Scorecard - 1st Major League Night Game

1977 Phillies License Plate (SGA)

Auction end date: 2/6/2012
Final bid: $39.99
Number of bids: 1 - Buy Now

Description: Philadelphia Phillies metal license plate measuring 11 3/4"x 6".  Depicts former mascots, Phil and Phyllis.  

Comments: Originally available as a SGA during the 1977 season, a plate in this condition - from this era easily attracts Phillies fans young and old.  I am a big fan of the nostalgia in this item.  It would look nice displayed in my Phillies room.
