Al Rosen Baseball Glove – Hutch 1950’s

This great 1950’s baseball glove was made by Hutch and is the Al Rosen model.  Al Rosen aka “The Hebrew Hammer” was a slugger for the Cleveland Indians in the 1950’s – 1960’s.

Operation Infield – Infiltrate Oriole Park at Camden Yards

Oriole Park at Camden Yards in Baltimore is my favorite baseball stadium to visit. I love the vintage ballpark styling of the stadium.

I love that the old B&O railroad warehouse was integrated into the design

Great Vintage Fonts.

Wrought Iron awnings. I love that the stadium uses loden green and brick.

The famous Eutaw Street

Boog's Bar-B-Q on Eutaw Street

B-B-Q and beer from Boog's

You can even say hello to former Orioles first baseman Boog Powell. He'll pose for photographs and sign autographs!

Great painted signs on the old B&O warehouse

Ken Griffey Jr. has been the only player to hit a ball off the warehouse. Here is the plaque which commemorates the spot.

More great fonts inside the stadium

It was vintage uniform day at the park, and the Orioles were wearing the 1949 Negro League Baltimore Elite Giants uniforms. They are awesome!

The Orioles dugout. The Elite Giants uniforms are the best!

I love this usher's handelbar mustache

Vintage Skiers – Hitting the Slopes in Style

I love these old photographs of skiers from the 1930’s – 1960’s. The sweaters and performance apparel is just too good! These make me wish I was in St. Moritz.

Nothing like hitting the slopes in white oxford and a tie!

Love the Fair Isle sweaters!

Queen of the slopes.

These lovely ladies are ready for some downhill action!

Nothing better than skiing in a tartan skirt

Awesome Ski Trooper!

Another great ski trooper
