01 Detroit Red Wings Blinker Rare 1st I've Seen Gem NrMt MB $1000

These NHL Blinkers were ordered as a promotional item by a candy company in Canada in the early 60's. All six NHL teams were represented and they are all incredibly rare, this is only the 3rd blinker I've ever had, and the first Red Wing that I've ever seen. Probably the rarest set in the hobby and it's estimated there are less then 20 dolls from the entire set left anywhere. This one is all original with beautiful coloring, strong gloss and smooth paint throughout. The decals are in nice shape too. The only flaws are 3 light surface hairlines to the head rim that are not visible on display, looks mint. A rarity and a beauty, would be the highlight of almost any collection out there. $21551

02 Johnstown Jets 1962 Square Base Rare 3rd One I’ve Had Gem NrMt MB $750

Another very rare hockey doll and only the 3rd one I've been able to get my hands on, the first was back in April 2011. As you may know, this is one of the minor league dolls from the 1962 Square Base set. It was originally produced to be a Toronto Maple Leaf doll but the decals were replaced at the factory with Johnstown logos painted on. This one is is a Billy Ives model who played for the team from 1962-69 and it's the second one that I know of ( Tim Hunter had one in an auction in 1997, there is also a Danny Patrick version, maybe others). He's all original with solid colors and gloss and nicely painted decals. A minor ding under the head rim and some scattered pin point flakes are the flaws. Tough doll! $750

03 Los Angeles Dodgers Black Weirdo Rare Gem MB $750

These Black Dodgers Weirdo examples are extremely scarce. Only the 5th one I've ever had and only the 3nd in the last 12 years. This example looks solid with nice colors and strong decals. It's the "Screwball" example and has the comical # 9 1/10 on his back and comes with his very hard to find original hand tag which has a crease but is otherwise solid. He's all original except for some hidden touching up to the head rim, otherwise minty. $1550

04 Willie Mays Correct Signature White Base Rare Gem MB $750
A very rare doll and only the 3rd one that I've been able to offer. A very small number of Mays White Bases were given a decal with the correct Mays signature, rather than the "Wiely Msys" looking autograph on his regular dolls (see pix for comparison). This one looks super with outstanding coloring and gloss and sharp decals and signature. He's had some chips to the head professionally restored but you need a black light to know that. Very scarce and a beauty. $1100

05 Roberto Clemente White Base Gem NrMt MB $750

Solid little Bucks doll, this is the black player version.

Not quite as shiny as the others here but still nice. $138

24 New York Yankees White Base Swirl Style Rare NrMt/Mt MB $180

This is a very rare doll. Almost every Yankee White Base I've ever seen is the crooked cap style, I really can't remember the last time I saw one with a swirl. The body style is a bit sleeker and the pinstripes are more pronounced than normally found on the crooked cap doll. This one is all original and looks good with nice colors and gloss and strong decals. No chips, cracks or hairlines. If you are looking for a very hard to find Yankee this is it.$750

This one is all original and looks great with nice colors, solid gloss and perfect decals. No cracks or hairlines, an incidental mold flaw to the side of the base is the only flaw. A tough find in this condition. $390

31 Snoboy Advertising Nodder 1st One I've Seen Rare NrMt MB $300
Wow, last month I had a Royal Tool advertising nodder that I had never seen before, now here is another true rarity that I never knew existed.

The company, which started out as Pacific Fruit and Produce Company in Washington has changed a bit over the years and expanded to other parts of the country and Snoboy is still their mascot. In the 60's he starred in many TV commercials entitled Snoboy on TV. A large Snoboy sign can still be seen today in Minneapolis which was their former headquarters. Here's a link if you're interested: https://www.snoboy.com/history/

The painted decal (which when put under a black light verifies that the logo paint is old and not a recent brand) is in nice shape with just a smudge to the A. No cracks or hairlines. $44

I know of 8 franchises that can be found in this style (Braves, Reds, Senators, Twins, Dodgers, Giants, and Yankees are the others). This is the Tigers example. He's had a cleaning to brighten him up a bit and looks pretty good. Embossed hat and chest logos are good, base decal has some light flaws. Some scattered nicks and shellac drips and a few light hairlines are the flaws.

41 New York Yankees 1960 Color Base NrMt MB $60
Good looking example of the first Yankee doll from the 1960-61 Color Base set. Solid off white coloring with nice gloss and strong embossed logos. A couple of small nicks and tiny surface hairlines coming up from the rim are the minor flaws.$60

43 Don Drysdale Hartland Statue NrMt With Tag, Rubber and Toe Plate NrMt+ MB $200
This original Hartland statue featuring Don Drysdale is one of the harder to find in the series. It is a pleasing off white and is bright & clean with strong paint and no marks or nicks. It still has its original tag, toe-plate and pitching rubber. A real beauty.

44 Alabama Quinco Bank NrMt MB $70
This neat 6.5" Bama mascot bank was part of a series issued by Quinco in the mid 60's. As far as I can tell it's a pretty tough one and is in nice condition with no chips or cracks. Minor misses to the base decal but otherwise solid. $113

45 Montreal Alouettes Touchdown Bank CFL Rare Gem MB $280
These neat CFL Touchdown Banks are extremely tough to find, I've only had a few of any team over the years and this is only the 2nd Montreal example that I've had. He's in great shape with bright colors and gloss with strong decals. All original but for a couple of spot touch ups to the wings. Some well hidden nicks to the rim and a pinpoint or two are the flaws, looks great and very hard to find.

46 Saskatchewan Roughriders CFL Mascot Tough NrMt MB $250

One of 8 known CFL mascots which include Ottawa, Edmonton, BC, Calgary, Hamilton, Montreal, Saskatchewan and Winnipeg (haven't seen a Toronto but one is probably out there). All are very tough to find and this one is a good looking all original example with solid colors and gloss with perfect decals. Some nicks to rim of football and one little chip where the head attaches to the body are the only flaws.

47 Lot of 2 Kissing Girls Redskins and Giants Nice $60

An interesting lot, this is a pair of Majorettes from the 1962-64 Kissing Pairs set. Includes the tough and Redskins girl from that valuable pair as well as the NY Giants (could also be used with the Cowboys, Colts, or any blue team as the majorettes/cheerleaders are pretty interchangeable). Great to have as a replacement or for when you run into a single male kisser for sale. Skins girl is minty looking with just some touch ups to brim and base and a small flake or two to the head rim. Blue doll has the same type touch ups with just a micro hairline under the left side head rim. $80

48 Minnesota Vikings Kissing Pair for Repair or Display MB $50
Here's a pretty tough to find NFL Kissing Pair set of the Vikings. She's minty, he's a bit banged up as you can see but they don't look bad on display or if you're handy you could fix these up and have a pretty valuable pair.$97

49 Atlanta Falcons 1965 Real Face Gem ExMt MB $60
Nice example from the 1965-68 Realistic Face NFL set which are all pretty tough to find. Solid colors and gloss throughout. Decals have some misses and stripe has some nicks as you can see. Flaws are a few touch ups to the black paint and a small ding under the head rim.

A nice colorful Giants example from the 1968 Gold Base set. Strong colors and gloss with just a touch of surface crazing to the paint of his jersey (you need to examine it closely to see it, not noticeable on display). A series of surface hairlines in rear are the flaws, displays very nicely. $50

58 San Diego Padres Gold Base Gem NrMt/Mt MB $70
The Padres example from the 1967-72 Gold Base set is a very condition sensitive doll, they are very hard to find in minty shape. This is one of the nicest I've seen with strong colors and gloss and no chips, cracks, hairlines or mold issues. Decals are very strong with just the seam splits to chest and hat. As nice as you'll find.$113
59 New York Mets Gold Base Gem NrMt/Mt MB $80

This one is in super condition, all original with solid coloring and outstanding gloss and a strong decal.

02 Willie Mays Gold Base Tough Gem NrMt MB $500

Here's a very tough baseball doll, I'm in my 18th year of running these auctions and I've only been able to get a hold of 10 of these over the years, much tougher than any of the other superstar dolls, including Clemente. This one is very nice with solid colors and nice gloss. Chest decal has some light misses but looks fine, signature on base is strong. A very minor ding to the head rim and a light surface hairline in rear are the only little flaws, nice doll that's tough to come by. $605

03 Brooklyn Bum Mascot Nodder NrMt+ MB $500

A pretty rare doll, this is only the 5th Brooklyn Dodger Bum bobbing head that I've ever had, they are very tough to find. He's about 6" to 6.5" high, not including the vintage Dodger pennant which fits into a hole on his hand. This one is all original with nice colors and solid gloss. No cracks or hairlines. The pennant is in nice shape with just some very minor wear. Not many of these out there and this is one of the better ones.. $1250

09 Minneapolis Twins Mini Variation NrMt+ MB $350

A tough variation from the mini set, this is the "Minneapolis" Twins version that was briefly produced before they realized that the Twins franchise was to be called Minnesota rather than Minneapolis and changed the decal. I've had a couple recently but that's a fluke, they don't come around often. This mold version is particularly hard to find as the vast majority of Twins minis are of the Moon Face variety, this is the standard face style. He's had some cracks and chips professionally restored and looks gem minty on the shelf with strong colors and gloss and super decals.$350

10 Houston Colt 45's White Base Blue Uniform NrMt MB $350

This one is gorgeous with super gem colors and gloss and nice decals. If you have a black light you can spot that he's had some light restoration to the head but you can't tell with the naked eye. Looks like a beautiful gem mint doll.$350

April 2019 Auction Final Results Not Including 14% Buyers Premium


01 Montreal Canadiens Blinker Rare Gem MB $1000
These NHL Blinkers were ordered as a promotional item by a candy company in Canada in the early 60's. All six NHL teams were represented and they are all incredibly rare, this is only the 2nd blinker I've ever had, the other was back in 2010 and went for well over $5000. Probably the rarest set in the hobby and it's estimated there are less then 20 dolls from the entire set left anywhere. This one has been beautifully restored and looks like a gorgeous gem mint doll with sharp colors, nice gloss and a solid decal. A true rarity and a beauty, would be the highlight of most any collection out there. $3394

02 New York Rangers Mini Rare Gem MB $750
A very scarce and desirable doll, while the rest of the NHL minis were found in large quantities in 1990, this Ranger mini remains one of the most elusive dolls of all. He's great looking with solid colors and gloss and strong decals. Note that he has a stenciled base decal which is correct , if you see an actual decal on the base that means its a remake. He has had some hairline cracks and nicks to the feet area professionally restored otherwise all original. A tiny nick to his right cheek is the only other flaw. Looks great and a really rare one. $1330

03 Super Rare Washington Redskins 1965 Earpad 2nd I've Had Gem NrMt/Mt MB $750
Without a doubt one of the toughest football dolls of all. As you may know, the Skins is the only NFL doll included in the 1965-68 Earpad set, all of the rest are AFL teams. The only other one of these that I have handled was back in 2010, which will give you an idea of how rare it really is. As a bonus it's all original and in gorgeous condition. Like new colors and gloss with super decals throughout. The only thing resembling a flaw is a very faint micro surface hairline to rear rim. I missed it completely the first two times I examined the doll and needed a penlight to spot it, it's invisible without a strong light and otherwise the doll is gem mint. A super example of a doll that probably won't come around again anytime soon.$1925

If you have a black light you can see that he's had professional restoration to the head rim and helmet but you can't tell with the naked eye. A very faint hairline to the chin area that you have to search for is the only flaw, otherwise looks like a super gem mint doll. $1210

10 Los Angeles Dodgers Weirdo Nice Guys Gem NrMt MB $350

01 Portland Buckaroos Minor League Hockey Nodder Rare First I've Had Gem MB $750

Wow, a truly rare doll. This is one of the few dolls that I had never had for sale before, it's actually the first one I've ever seen in person. The Buckaroos were a minor league hockey team in the Western Hockey League from 1960-74 (other teams from that league that had bobbing head dolls made were the Los Angeles Blades, Salt Lake City Eagles, and the San Diego Gulls). The doll is gorgeous with bright glossy colors and super logos and stripes. Body is all original and in super condition with just one minor mark to the paint on the back. Head rim has had some chips and nicks professionally restored and looks gem mint.

Very sharp looking doll, this is the unique facial variation only seen in the White Base set on the Senators and Mets. Quite scarce, haven't had one in quite awhile. He looks good with smooth colors and paint and strong decals. A touched up ding and crazing to rear collar area and a nick under the head rim are the flaws, looks mint on display. $132

23 Los Angeles Dodgers White Base Decal Variation Gem MB $100

The standard Dodger doll in the 1961-63 White Base set has an embossed chest logo. For unknown reasons they also made a small amount of Dodger (and Giants) with decals and they are pretty tough to come by. If you look closely you will notice that the body on these decal Dodger dolls has a different mold then the standard White Bases. This one has had some nicks and chips professionally restored and looks minty with super colors and gloss and strong decals. $133

24 San Francisco Giants White Base Gem MB $180

27 Baltimore Colts 1968 Gold Base Tough NrMt MB $100

One the toughest dolls in the set based on my experience, certainly up there in the top few and only the 2nd one I've had in 4 years. This one is all original and in solid condition. This is the light blue version and has nice colors and gloss. Decals have some wear as you can see. A couple of tiny paint flakes and a small nick to rear head rim are the only flaws.

28 New England Patriots 1968 Gold Base Tough Gem NrMt MB $140

Another of the more difficult finds in the 1968 Gold Base set. Last month I had the Boston example, this is the New England doll that replaced that one in 1971. Hard to say which one is tougher. This is a gorgeous looking example with super gem colors and gloss and sharp decals. Flaws are a ding to left shoulder and light chipping and hairlines to the head rim in rear. Looks great on display. $180

29 Philadelphia Eagles 1968 Gold Base Gem NrMt+ MB $140

31 Kansas City Chiefs 1968 AFL Gold Base Gem ExMt MB $90
A very hard to find doll that I haven't had in over 5 years. This is from the 1968 Gold Base AFL subset where the old American Football League teams were originally given AFL stickers. Later all dolls were made with NFL stickers so these are quite hard to find and neat to collect. This one is a beauty with gem colors and gloss and strong decals. Only flaws are hidden on display, some light chipping under the rim and a hairline in rear. A tough, good looking doll. $154

32 Kansas City Chiefs 1968 Gold Base Gem NrMt+ MB $60

This is the standard NFL doll from the 1968 Gold Base set. Nice bright colors, solid gloss and strong decals all around. Only flaws are a couple of pin point touch ups to the helmet, otherwise all original with no problems.

33 lot of 2 1968 Gold Bases Falcons and Jets Gem NrMt MB $120
Good looking pair of NFL dolls from the 1968 Gold Base set. Falcons would probably grade Gem NrMt+ with super colors and gloss, perfect decals and just a bit of tiny chipping to the head rim.

38 Houston Astros Gold Base With Green Mold NrMt+ MB $80
This is a first run Astros Gold Base that used the nice Green Base mold. Blue hat version and he's in great shape with solid colors and gloss. Chest and base decals have some wear, hat decal is strong but as it's an orange decal on a dark blue hat it's hard to see. A very minor ding under the head rim is the only flaw. $80

39 Atlanta Braves Gold Base Light Blue Sleeves Gem NrMt+ MB $80
A bit of a neat variation here, most Braves have the dark blue sleeves and socks, this one has the harder to find lighter blue. A pretty doll with nice colors and super gloss, decals are very strong. No chips, cracks or hairlines, just some very mild scattered surface wear. Looks great. $117

40 Baltimore Orioles Gold Base Gem NrMt MB $90

This is a tough doll, out of about a dozen or so Michigan State dolls that I've had, only 4 have been in the traditional Toes Up style, most have been the variations that are found with the Spartans. This is the very hard to find Baggy shirt style and he's in great all original condition. Strong colors and gloss with super decals (the chest decal is black, probably not the best color choice in hindsight, lol). Two micro (and I mean micro) hairlines in rear that I had to search for are the flaws. Terrific doll. $288

44 Kansas State 1968 Nodder Gem ExMt MB $60
Here's a beautiful doll. Ordered by the school and features the same mold as the 1968 NFL Gold Base set. Pretty gem colors and gloss and super decals (those Wildcat decals are awesome). Some scattered touched up flakes to the helmet and a flake to rear rim are the flaws.

41 New York Yankees Mini Team Issue NrMt MB $90
One of the more unique and unusual looking dolls of the period, this is the team ordered mini (they also produced a similar regular size doll) and it's pretty tough to come by. It features pin stripes and pad print logos and was generally poorly made with many mold and paint issues. This one is actually one of the nicer ones I've seen, it has some mostly hidden paint chipping to the head rim but otherwise is solid with nice paint, colors and gloss. Stamped decals are a bit flawed but look OK. A little rough but better than most I've seen.

This has become an extremely tough doll to find, last one I had was back in early 2012! One of 3 minor league franchises included in the 1960-62 Color Base set and the minor leaguers were the only one's that were given decals. Doll is all original and in nice shape with solid colors and gloss and good decals. A small surface scrape to the shoulder top and a very tiny ding under the head rim are the only minor flaws.
$183

This one is super with lovely colors and gloss and super embossed logos and stripes throughout. Embossed logos, stars and stripes are great too. A tiny pin point touch up to the base, otherwise all original and lovely. $264

50 Philadelphia Eagles 1961 Square Base NFL Gem MB $80
Beautiful Eagle with the NFL embossed logo from the 1961-62 Square Base set. Gem colors and gloss with perfect logos and wings. My black light tells me he's had some professional restoration to the rim and shoulder area but you can't tell with the naked eye, looks like a gorgeous gem mint doll.
51 New York Jets Nodder Bank MB $70
A pretty difficult doll and one of only a few Jets examples that they made. It's a team ordered doll, I previously thought this was issued after the Jets SB III win in 1969, but I saw one advertised in a 1967 Jets Yearbook so it was obviously issued prior to 1967. A great looking example with gem colors and gloss and nice logos. A couple of chips and dings were expertly restored and he looks gem mint on the shelf.
$70

53 Atlanta Falcons 1965 Gold Base Gem NrMt/Mt MB $70
The Falcons came on the scene in 1966 and most of the Falcons (and Saints) dolls were not as solidly well made as the earlier runs of dolls in the 1965-68 Gold Base set. Most that I've had were either dinged up or restored, pretty tough to find a gem minty original example. This one certainly qualifies with outstanding colors and gloss and no chips, cracks or hairlines. Decals and helmet stripe are strong too. Lovely doll and a bit tough in this condition.

I originally thought the majorette was a replacement doll (ie a Green Base "Kiss Me" doll that was repainted gold), however after examining it with a black light I discovered it was actually all original, including the gold paint on the base.

42 New York Jets Nodder Bank MB $80
A pretty difficult doll and one of only a few Jets examples that they made. It's a team ordered doll, I previously thought this was issued after the Jets SB III win in 1969, but I saw one advertised in a 1967 Jets Yearbook so it was obviously issued prior to 1967. A great looking example with gem colors and gloss and nice logos. A couple of chips and dings were expertly restored and he looks gem mint on the shelf.

One of the more unique and unusual looking dolls of the period, this is the team ordered mini (they also produced a similar regular size doll) and it's pretty tough to come by.

This one is actually one of the nicer ones I've seen, it has some mostly hidden paint chipping to the head rim but otherwise is solid with nice paint, colors and gloss.

I believe every other Phantom that I've seen had the N in Universal backwards and the U left out of studios, I guess they did eventually correct it, first correct one I've seen.

Another pretty tough find from the 1968 Gold Base set that looks super. Strong colors and gloss, decals are great with just a light flaw to each of the side helmet decals. Light chipping under the rim is the only flaw.
$248

71 Baltimore Colts 1968 Gold Base Gem NrMt+ MB $120
This might be the toughest doll of the set based on my experience, certainly up there in the top few and one I haven't had in 3+ years. It's particularly tough in minty condition and this one is all original and absolutely gorgeous. It's the dark blue version and has gem colors and gloss with perfect decals. Two tiny hairlines to rear rim and a pin point to base are the only minor flaws. A beautiful doll and a tough one.
$120

72 Cleveland Browns 1968 Gold Base Gem MB $100
Another gorgeous example from the 1968 Gold Base set. Gem colors and gloss with perfect decals. Body is all original and perfect. The head has had some nicks and chips professionally restored and looks gem mint.
$110

73 New Orleans Saints 1968 Gold Base Black Helmet Tough Gem NrMt+

Here's a tough variation, I've only had a handful over the years and haven't seen one since 2014. Most Saints dolls come with a gold helmet but for a short period of time they were produced in black, This one is a beauty, all original (except for a couple pin point touch ups to the black that my black light picked up) with strong colors and gloss throughout. Helmet stripe and chest and helmet decals are perfect, base decal has light wear but looks fine. Two short micro hairlines in rear is the only flaw. Super example of a tough doll.$306

74 Washington Redskins 1968 Gold Base Maroon with Spears Gem NrMt MB $140
One of the tougher color/helmet combos for the Redskins, last time i had this version was in 2014.  Solid colors and gloss, decals have some misses as you can see. Some nicks and micro hairlines to the headrim are the flaws. He's had a professional cleaning but you need a black light to know that.
$169

75 Lot of 2 Baggy Shirt Toes Up MB $100
Here a pair of college dolls in the baggy shirt style. The Washington Huskies doll looks great with nice colors and gloss and fine decals. Flaws are a lack of paint and wear to the head rim and a few surface chips. Northwestern doll has stains to rear and heavy wear to the head rim and a chip to rear base, looks OK from the front. $100

 

June 2018 Auction Final Results

01 Robin Nodder Rare First One I've Had Gem MB $1000

Now this is a really rare one! One of the few dolls around that I've never had before, the Batman doll is rare, his sidekick Robin is even tougher. One of the nicest that you'll ever see (that is if you ever see one, lol) with super gem colors and gloss and a perfect colorful paint job. The neat embossed logo and eye mask are terrific. Body and most of the head and face are all original, the head rim has had a few little nicks and hairlines restored but you'd need a black light to tell. As rare and as nice as they come. $2750

02 Popeye The Sailor Nodder Rare Gem NrMt/Mt MB $1000

An absolutely gorgeous Popeye doll, one of the toughest dolls around, only the 5th one I've had to offer over the last 16 years. This one is a beauty with gem colors and gloss and perfect decals. He's 98% original, just some light smoothing of the head rim that I almost missed with my black light, it's very minor. The rest is all original and gem minty. Great doll. $1996

03 Roberto Clemente White Base Gem MB $750

Here's a beautiful example of one of the most popular dolls of all, the tough Roberto Clemente White Base. Super colors and gloss, no cracks or hairlines. Decals are strong which is often not the case with a Clemente. If you have a black light you can see that he's had some chips and cracks professionally repaired but it's impossible to tell by looking at him with the naked eye, he looks mint. Lovely doll.$1127

04 Mickey Mantle Round Base Original Gem NrMt/Mt MB $300

Here's a gorgeous Mantle "Muscles" version. Quite rare in this condition, unlike most Mantles that look this good this one is all original with no chips, cracks, hairlines, touch ups or repairs. Beautiful gem colors and gloss, decals are super with just a small factory mold bump to the Y on the signature. Note that there is a small factory mold flaw under the right side of the head rim, it's not a crack and doesn't detract from the beauty of the doll at all. Lovely example. $600

05 Kansas City Athletics Gold Base Gem NrMt/Mt MB $300

There's no prettier doll than a gem minty KC A's Gold Base with the green and gold uniform. This was a short lived doll as the A's moved to Oakland soon after production started so not many of these were made. This example is gorgeous, all original with gem colors and gloss and no chips, cracks or hairlines. Because of the pinstripes the chest logo is often flawed on this doll but this one is strong with just a couple of tiny misses, other decals are great. All original and gem minty. $363

06 Detroit Tigers Black Player NrMt MB $500

Here's a nice Tiger Happy Face example from the tough 1963-66 Black Player set. Colors, gloss and decals are all in nice condition. All original with the only flaw being a small, well hidden chip under the head rim in back. A pretty tough one to find. $550

07 Minneapolis Twins Mini Tough Gem MB $350

A very tough to find doll from the mini set, this is the "Minneapolis" Twins version that was briefly produced before they realized that the Twins franchise was to be called Minnesota rather than Minneapolis and changed the decal. I've had a couple recently but that's a fluke, they rarely show up. This mold version is particularly scarce as the vast majority of Twins minis are of the Moon Face variety, this is the standard face style. He's had some cracks and chips professionally restored and looks minty on the shelf with shiny colors and super decals. $350

08 Detroit Lions Black Toes Up Rare Gem MB $500

An extremely rare doll from the very tough Black Players Toes Up set. First one I've had in 4 years, and have only had a small handful ever. This one has gem colors and gloss with super baby blue coloring and strong decals throughout. He's had some chips and cracks professionally restored and looks gem minty on the shelf. $633

09 Neat Baltimore Colts Beer Advertising Lamp Rare MB $200

What a neat piece this is, I hate to have to part with it.. This is a vintage 1960 advertising bobbing head desk lamp featuring a National Bohemian Light Beer bottle named "The Colt" and a Colts nodder. The shade has a Colts emblem that illuminates when the light is turned on. All original except for the stitching around the lamp shade that had to be replaced and someone at some point put an oriole sticker on the base of the lamp. It still works and is in very strong condition.The Colts nodder is in great shape. What a great addition, looks great on your shelf or on your desk. Here's some info about the Colts and National Bohemian that I found very interesting:
National Bohemian and the Baltimore Colts (from rustycans.com)

National Brewing, like breweries all across the US, sponsored local sports teams as a form of advertising. Washington DC rival Christian Heurich sponsored the Senators through 1955. They closed in early 1956. Local rivals Gunther sponsored the Orioles until they were bought out by Hamms in 1960. But National was not shut out, they advertised with the Colts, the local football franchise, and the Bullets, then Baltimore’s basketball team. They began their relationship with the Colts in 1953, selling tickets to games via the radio and TV shows the brewery sponsored. In 1955 they signed a five-year deal as the team’s sponsor on radio and TV. They also produced a team film to promote the Colts in 1956, “Corralin’ the Colts.”

In 1959 they signed another five year deal to sponsor the Colts on TV and radio and in September of that year they introduced “the Colt”, a 7 oz bottle of their beer. In 1960 they introduced the 7 oz flat top aluminum can. Coors had developed the 7 oz aluminum can and Gunther used one as well.$220
10 Green Bay Packers Type 1 Toes Up Tough Gem NrMt MB $300
This is a very tough doll, it's only the 6th one I've had in over 16 years running these auctions. This is from the Type 1 series which featured the goofy face, small print decal with the ball held vertically. He has lovely colors and gloss throughout. Decals and helmet stripes are in nice shape (the right side helmet decal was applied upside down). I can't really use the black light on this one because the gold metallic flake paint always glows but it certainly appears to be all original through out. Some light scrapes and faint hairlines under the rim are the flaws and they are hidden on display. A great looking, tough to find doll.
$605
11 Philadelphia Eagles Type 1 Toes Up Gem MB $300
Another tough to find Type 1 example, for some reason they used a different head mold for the Eagle doll. Colors and gloss are very nice, decals and embossed wings are sharp too. A couple chips and nicks to the head rim have been professionally restored and looks great. A couple of marks to the paint, otherwise mint looking.
$439
12 Detroit Lions Type 1 Toes Up Tough Gem ExMt MB $240
Another very difficult Type 1 (ball vertical, goofy face, small print decal on base) that I haven't had in 3 years. This one is all original with gorgeous gem colors and gloss. Embossed chest logo is super, base decal is strong but for a factory cut to the D). Flaws are a chip under the right side of the head rim with a corresponding nick to the collar, both well hidden.
13 St. Louis Cardinals Kissing Pair Gem MB $180
A tough pair from the 1962-64 NFL Kissing Pairs set, only the 2nd set I've had in the last 3 1/2 years. Strong colors and gloss, nice decals. She's original and minty, he's had some restoration done and looks gem minty too.
14 Minnesota Vikings 1963-64 Square Gold Base Tough Gem MB $200

Very scarce doll from the hard to find 1963-64 Square Gold Base Set. Looks great with super purple colors and a bright glossy finish. He's had some chips and cracks professionally restored and looks gem minty. Only flaw is a horizontal craze crack across the front of the base, I only noticed it when I looked at the pictures, you really have to search to see it with the naked eye. $242

15 Green Bay Packers 1965 Real Face Gem NrMt/Mt MB $140
An all original beauty from the 1965-68 Realistic Face set. Gem colors and gloss throughout, decals are solid with just a small miss or two. No chips, cracks or hairlines, they don't come much nicer.
$140

16 Boston Braves Blue Base Hockey 4th I've Had Gem NrMt+ MB $350

Only the 4th Braves doll I've been able to get hold of, obviously a tough doll to find, one of the scarcer Hockey examples out there. This was part of the 4 team Blue Base Set which featured the Braves (AHL), Crusaders (WHA), Whalers (WHA) and Bruins (NHL). This one is all original and In super condition with gem colors and gloss and a perfect Braves chest decal. Only flaws are a small nick to the top of the hair swirl (easy touch up if you prefer) and another tiny nick and micro hairlines to the side of the head rim. Rare and gorgeous $544

17 New England Whalers Blue Base Rare Gem MB $240
First Whaler I've had in over 5 years! From the four team Blue Base Hockey set which also includes the Cleveland Crusaders (WHA), Boston Bruins (NHL) and Boston Braves (AHL). One of only two WHA examples known and a tough doll that has really dried up. Looks minty with nice decals. If you have a black light you can spot some professional restoration but I couldn't see it with the naked eye.
$290

18 Cleveland Crusaders Blue Base Gem NrMt+ MB $100
Here's another doll from the 4 team Blue Base set. A bit more available than the others in the set but certainly not an easy one. This one has sharp colors and gloss with a super Crusaders decal. A couple very minor nicks to the mold is about the only thing worth mentioning, it's a nice doll.
$100

19 Lot of 2 Hockey Minis Wings and Canadiens NrMt MB $70

Nice lot of 2 from the 1962 NHL Mini set. Both have strong colors and gloss and nice decals. These minis are often very rough mold wise but these are solid.

20 Kansas City Athletics White Base NrMt/Mt MB $100

Great looking A's White Base with lovely colors and gloss and perfect decals. No chips, cracks or hairlines. That's a factory mold flaw to rear head rim, otherwise super. $181

21 New York Mets White Base Blue Shoes Gem ExMt MB $120

NIce looking Mets blue shoes variation from the 1961-63 White Base set. Pleasing colors and gloss with the neat small print chest and hat decals that are specific to this doll and are in nice shape. A couple of faint hairlines, stray nicks a touch up under the hat brim are the minor flaws (note the shellac drip to lower face looks dark in the pictures because of the flash, in real light it is barely noticeable). Nice looking doll that is pretty tough to find. $132

22 Minnesota Twins White Base Ex+ MB $120

The Twins example is one of the tougher White Bases to find, I haven't had one in 3 and 1/2 years! This one looks nice on the shelf with solid colors and gloss. Decals are pretty good with just a couple of misses. Some scattered nicks and light hairlines and a touched up ding to the nose that blends in pretty well are the flaws. Tough doll that displays well.$160

23 Cincinnati Reds White Base NrMt MB $140
Boy, this doll has really dried up recently. Haven't had one in 3 years, they're pretty tough to find. No cracks or hairlines, solid decals. Body is a solid off white, head shellac has toned a bit which is typical on these ball heads but looks pretty good. Nice example.
$299

24 Baltimore Orioles White Base Gem MB $150

Nice O's mascot from the 1961-63 White Base set. Solid colors and gloss with pretty good decals (embossed chest logo is a bit spotty). He’s had a cleaning and has had some nick and chips professionally fixed up and looks minty.$150

25 Los Angeles Dodgers White Base Double Variation Gem NrMt+ MB $120
This is a unique "double variation" that I've never seen before. First off, just about every White Base Dodger that I've ever seen comes with the ball (a tribute to the great pitching staff of the early 60's), this is the super scarce bat variation. Also, the Dodgers White Base example normally comes with an embossed chest logo, for an unknown reason they also made some Dodgers (and Giants) dolls with a chest decal instead. They're pretty hard to come by and it's a nice variation to collect. He's a lovely example, beautiful white coloring and nice gloss with pretty solid decals. No cracks or hairlines, just a few well disguised pin point touch ups to the hat, otherwise mint and all original.
$266

26 Detroit Tigers White Base NrMt MB $90

Nice all original Tiger mascot from the 1961-63 White Base set. Solid off white colors and strong decals. Flaws are a small flake to right ear and some scattered craze marks to the uniform. $90
27 San Francisco 49'ers 1965 Gold Base Tough Gem NrMt/Mt MB $150

A very scarce example from the nice 1965-67 Gold Base set. For many years this doll was considered to be non-existent, I didn't see my first one until 2009, haven't seen many since. This example is gorgeous and all original with bright shiny coloring and no chips, cracks or hairlines. The right side helmet decal is missing, otherwise as nice as you'll see. $211

28 Pittsburgh Steelers 1965 Gold Base Gem NrMt/Mt MB $150
Another gorgeous, all original example from the nice 1965-67 Gold Base set. Super gem colors and gloss throughout, very tough to find the neat apron style shoulder pads looking this good. No chips, cracks or hairlines. The decals and helmet stripe are in nice shape with some scattered misses (as often was the case with this doll, the factory decal they used reads "Sieleers" but it blends in well). Super looking doll.
$246

29 Green Bay Packers 1965 Gold Base Gem NrMt/Mt MB $140

This is an absolutely gorgeous all original Packer example from the sharp 1965-67 Gold Base set. Gem colors and gloss, solid decals and no chips, cracks or hairlines. Some light wear to the helmet stripe in rear, otherwise as nice as they come, it's a beauty!  140

213

32 Atlanta Falcons 1965 Gold Base Gem NrMt/Mt MB $70
The Falcons came on the scene in 1966 and most of the Falcons (and Saints) dolls were not as solidly well made as the earlier runs of dolls in the 1965-67 Gold Base set. Most that I've had were either dinged up or restored, pretty tough to find a gem minty original example. This one certainly qualifies with outstanding colors and gloss and no chips, cracks or hairlines. Decals and helmet stripe are strong too. Lovely doll and a bit tough in this condition.

33 Indianapolis 500 Standing Driver Gem MB $200

Absolutely gorgeous example of this popular doll. Super gem colors and gloss with perfect decals. He's had some chips and cracks professionally restored and looks gem mint on the shelf. Nicest looking example of this doll that I've seen. $200

$121

41 New York Mets Green Base Gem MB $80

Good looking Mets doll from the nice 1963-66 Green Base set. Solid colors and gloss with nice decals. He's had some professional restoration but you would need a black light to know that. Looks minty on the shelf.$80

42 Detroit Tigers Mini Large Print Decal NrMt+ MB $180
At some point during the Mini Set production run they introduced these large print decals which look pretty neat if you ask me. Probably a short term thing because you rarely see them and they are quite hard to find. I believe this is the first Tiger I've seen with that decal and he's in great shape. All original with solid paint and decals (just some very light misses to the base decal). I had to search to find the only flaw, an almost invisible micro surface hairline to the chin. Otherwise mint. $

Nice example of one of the most difficult college examples. $269

22 New York Rangers Mini Remake Gem MB $200

If you need a Ranger to finish off your set of 6 NHL minis and don't have $2000++ to spend on a real one, here's the next best thing. Many years ago a guy "remade" a collection of Toronto mini dolls into Rangers to help collectors who couldn't find a real Ranger mini (note that the real Rangers Mini has a light blue shirt and a stenciled logo on the base, not a decal like this remake has).. These have become quite collectible over the years and are still a lot rarer than any of the other minis out there.

32 Boston Patriots 1968 Gold Base Tough Gem NrMt+ in Box MB $120

April 2018 Auction Final Results


01 Mickey Mantle Round Base Variation Rare MB $750

Wow, this is a rare doll! First one I've had and I only know of one other out there. As you probably know, the standard Mantle doll was made on a Square White Base. There was also a 2nd Mantle doll produced on a round White Base with the wide shoulders, known as the Muscles version. Here is a standard Mantle on a round base, a true rarity that probably was a one day production run and then stopped. Beside being ultra rare it's also in great shape with solid colors and gloss, strong logos and just one little nick to the left side of head rim (that's a minor mold bump on his chin, not a crack). All original except for some hidden touching up of the hat. If you like rarities, this one is for you. $1980

02 Roberto Clemente White Base Gem NrMt+ MB $750

One of the nicer Clementes you will see. Nice bright colors, strong gloss with just about perfect decals. A pin point sized nick to his bat, otherwise no chips, cracks or hairlines anywhere.

03 Anaheim Angels Green Base Rare 3rd I've Had Gem NrMt MB $500

This is an extremely rare doll, only the 3rd one that I've ever been able to offer and only the 4th I've ever seen. The Angels were rumored to be moving to Anaheim for the 1963 season. The move didn't happen then, but many remaining White Base Angels dolls were given Anaheim paper labels and had their LA hat decals blacked out, A very few of the newly produced Green Base dolls were also changed before they realized that the move wasn't happening. This one is sharp with bright colors and solid gloss throughout. The decals are strong with just a slight cut to the upper right hand corner of the Anaheim logo. The only flaws are some light wear and a couple of micro hairlines under the head rim. Looks super and it's a rare one! $550

04 St. Louis Cardinals Wedge Base Rare Gem MB $500
A rare find from the 1970-72 Wedge Base set, only the 6th one I've ever had. Comes with only the base decal (never seen chest or hat decals on a Cards Wedge) which is in nice shape with one tiny miss to the S.

This quite a tough doll to find nowadays, only the 2nd one I've had in the last 5 years. The doll itself is super, all original with bright colors and gloss and just a micro hairline to the rim. The issues here are with the decals, base decal is partially gone as you can see and the silver wings on the helmet are painted on. Nice, hard to find doll if you're OK with the decals. $60

56 Los Angeles Dodgers 1960 Wood Base Nice MB $150
One of the first baseball dolls produced and quite scarce, only the 3rd that I've had in the last 4 years. Part of a 5 doll set, they also made a Giants, Yankees , Reds and Angels dolls in this style (many collectors include this as part of the 1960 Color base set since there wasn't a Dodger made for that set).

58 San Francisco Giants White Base Decal Variation Tough NrMt MB $140
A very tough doll, only the 4th one I've ever had. A very small percentage of Giant (and Dodger) white base dolls were issued a decal rather than the standard embossed chest logo and they are tough to find. This example is sharp with nice off white coloring, solid gloss and smooth paint throughout. All 3 decals are great.

This is one of the nicer I've seen with strong colors, gloss and logos. All original with no cracks or hairlines, only minor flaws are some scattered pin point sized nicks that don't amount to much. A very solid doll that's pretty scarce. $508

61 Boston Red Sox Wedge Base Bank NrMt+ MB $180

This is a very, very tough doll to find. The vast majority of Bosox Wedge Base examples are the standard red hat version.

He's in nice condition with solid off white coloring with nice gloss and logos. No cracks or chips, just some minor scattered marks to the paint. $220

65 San Diego Padres Gold Base Gem NrMt MB $70

One of the nicer Padres that I've seen, this is a very condition sensitive doll and it's hard to find them in top shape. Solid colors and gloss throughout. Decals are super other than the typical seam splits to hat and chest decals. A couple of flakes and pin point sized nicks are it as far as flaws. Nice example.$70
66 Chicago White Sox Gold Base With Green Mold NrMt MB $60

January 2018 Auction Final Results


01 The Wolf Man Nodder Rare Gem MB $1000
An extremely rare doll, only the 3rd one that I've ever had, last one was almost 10 years ago. Part of a 3 doll Monster set that also included Frankenstein and The Phantom of the Opera. This one looks super with gem colors and gloss and a very solid decal. My black light picked up some perfectly done paint touch ups scattered about, can't tell with the naked eye. Rest is original and minty with no chips, cracks or hairlines. Super example. $3221

02 New York Yankees Green Base Muscles Version Never Seen Before Wow MB $500

Wow, just when I begin to think that I've seen them all... This is a never before seen (by me or any other long time hobbyists that I've spoken to) New York Yankee round Green Base "muscles" version. As many of you know, the original Mickey Mantle 1961-63 White Base doll proved so popular that they produced a 2nd doll around 1966. This Mantle was issued on a round white base and featured wide shoulders and big arms and is often referred to as the Muscles version. Apparently a small number of this mold were produced as Green Base Yankees, at least one anyway..

This example is very nice, body is all original with nice coloring and gloss, decals are in good shape. Only flaws are a small scrape to belt buckle and some flakes to base. Head has had a smoothing of the head rim, no other flaws and looks mint. If you want a doll that possibly no one else has, here's your opportunity.$1485
03 Philadelphia Phillies Black Player NrMt+ MB $500
A nice looking, all original, "Happy Face" version from the 1963-66 Black Player set. The coloring and logos are solid, no chips, cracks or hairlines. A tough doll that shows up once a year if you're lucky. $732

This is a very scarce doll that I've only had about half a dozen times over the years.

All original except for a couple of tiny spot touch ups to the base. Only flaw is a short surface hairlines to side of jaw that is well hidden. Looks great and a very tough doll!$647
06 Washington Redskins 1960's Kail Ash Tray Rare MB $500
This neat Redskins "Kail" ash tray is one of the hardest to find in the NFL series of the 60's. I've only seen a couple of Redskins ever and those I saw went for really big bucks. It features the 5 inch standing lineman perched on an ash tray in the shape of an old time stadium. The lineman, which is held on the base with a cork, is in nice shape with just some paint flakes to the rear of figure and some very minor crazing to the rear of base which is under the gloss and doesn't effect things. The stadium ash tray has a few tiny paint nicks but looks good. Washington Redskins decal is in nice shape. Nice piece and very tough to find. $660
07 Washington Redskins 1965 Real Face Tough Gem MB $500

A really neat find here, I've seen this style on some College dolls (Miss State, New Mexico, Duke and a Liberty Bowl doll) but have never seen any pro teams before, I'm sure there are others out there, it will be fun to look for them. This one has nice bold red colors and neat chief decals on helmet. Chiefs on base has just a small miss to the C. A light crack on each side of the helmet are the flaws. $275

All of the flaws are well hidden on the shelf. $275

13 Los Angeles Angels Mini NrMt MB $100
This is the version that has the larger base without a decal and the Angels script hat decal, seems to be unique to the Angels. This one is in nice original shape with strong decals. Colors are pretty good with just a touch of toning to the uniform, more so in back. If you search very closely you can find a few surface hairlines coming up from the head rim but you really have to search to spot them. Otherwise no flaws.$100

14 Houston Astros Mini Gem NrMt/Mt MB $150

Gorgeous Astros mini that's pretty tough to find. The team was known as the Colt 45's until they moved to the Astrodome in 1965 and changed their name. A bit late for the 1961-63 Mini set so they had one made special. Same size and body type as the minis so it is usually considered part of the set. This is about the nicest one I've ever seen with bright colors, smooth paint, strong gloss and 3 perfect decals. No chips or cracks, won't find one nicer. $165

15 San Francisco Giants Mini Gem MB $200

Super looking little Giants mini with bright colors and gloss. My black light tells me he has been professionally restored and he looks gem mint on the shelf. Only flaw is some wear to the base decal.$220

18 Washington Redskins 1963 Square Gold Base NrMt MB $180

A tough doll from the hard to find 1963-64 Square Gold Base set. Solid colors and gloss with a nice embossed Redskins logo and helmet feather. Base decal has some minor misses to the paint but looks fine. No cracks or hairlines, just a few paint flakes to the pants and side of base. A hard to find doll that looks good. $538

19 Cleveland Browns Type 1 Toes Up CB NrMt+ MB $240
A neat doll and very tough to find. Solid looking example from the Type One Toes Up series (goofy face, ball vertical, small print decal on the base). Strong colors, gloss and decals, including the neat CB helmet decals. All original with no cracks or hairlines, just a couple of incidental pin point nicks to top of helmet (the white spots you see in the first picture is camera glare).$319

20 Philadelphia Eagles Type 1 Toes Up NrMt+ MB $200

Another tough to find Type 1, for some reason they used a different head mold for the Eagle doll. Colors and gloss are nice, decals and wings are sharp too. No cracks or hairlines, only flaws are some incidental pin point nicks. Nice doll. $799

21 Pittsburgh Steelers Type 2 Toes Up NrMt/Mt MB $150
Usually the Type 2's (gold base with large print decal and vertical ball) are the more common of the Toes Up but not with the Steelers, I think it's harder to find this one then the 1's or the 3's. This one is all original and a beauty with solid colors and shine and perfect decals and stripes. No chips, cracks or hairlines, as nice as they come.$150
22 Washington Redskins Type 2 Toes Up Gem MB $150

Another tough Type 2, very underrated, haven't had in over 5 years! This one is super with solid colors, gloss and decals. My black light tells me he has had some chips and nicks professionally restored and he looks mint on the shelf. $165

23 Detroit Lions Type 3 Toes Up Tough Only 3rd One I've Had NrMt MB $200
Good looking, hard to find Lions Type 3 Toes Up (ball horizontal, bullet shaped head, gold base). This is a rare one, I believe it's only the 3rd one that I've ever had, last was almost 10 years ago. Colors and gloss are in nice shape. Decals are pretty good with some minor misses. Light hairlines to the rim and some mild surface wear are the flaws, nothing major and he displays well. $200

24 Minnesota Vikings Kissing Pair Gem NrMt+ MB $200

A very nice looking pair from the tough 1962-64 NFL Kissing Pairs set. He's all original with gem colors and gloss and strong decals. A touch of surface wear to the paint under the left side of his head rim is the only minor flaw. She's had a couple of nicks and chips fixed up and looks minty on display.$200

25 San Francisco 49'ers Kissing Pair Gem NrMt+ MB $200

Super pair with great colors and gloss and perfect decals. No chips, cracks or hairlines, just a minor touch of wear under the right side of his head rim (and I mean minor). Nice pair. $242

A tough pair from the 1962-64 NFL Kissing Pairs set, haven't had this couple in over 3 years, not a plentiful set by any means. Strong colors and gloss, nice decals. They've had some restoration done and they look gem minty on the shelf.$200

27 New York Rangers High Skates Rare Gem NrMt/Mt MB $300

The Rangers is probably the toughest doll to find in the Large (6.5") High Skates set, this is only the 4th one that I've had and only 2 in the last 6 years. This is as nice as you'll see with strong colors and gloss with a great decal.  No chips, cracks or hairlines, the only very minor flaws are some scattered pin point nicks to chest and rear base. A beauty. $440

34 New York Knicks Bank Gem NrMt/Mt MB $60
This is a goood looking doll and if you ask me it's very undervalued. It was made in the late 60's/early 70's and stands about 10" tall and is very colorful. A quantity of these were found in Madison Square Garden about 27 years ago and for awhile they were quite plentiful but they've dried up lately, this is

only the 2nd I've had in the last 7 years. It's in original minty condition with nice colors, strong gloss and perfect logos. No chips, cracks or hairlines, looks great.$60

35 Denver Bears Wedge Base Tough Gem ExMt MB $180
A lovely example of this tough minor league doll from the 1970-72 Wedge Base Set. The colors and gloss are lovely which is tough to find on this doll. Likewise the decals usually a big issue but here they are in very nice shape. The flaws are some touch ups to the base and around the feet, minor flaking to hair and a small ding and hairline crack to rear of hat. Displays beautifully.

36 San Francisco Giants 1960 Color Base NrMt/Mt MB $120
I find the Giants to be one of the tougher dolls in the inaugural 1960-62 Color Base set and this one is solid. Bright colors and nice gloss, strong logos and no cracks or hairlines. Great looking doll.$145

This is a tough one, it's an Amarillo Sandies High School example, one of only 2 High School dolls with original decals known (Massillon is the other). This is only the 3rd example of this doll that I've ever had, last one was 4 years ago. The Sandies earlier were a legendary Texas program that won 4 State Titles. I doubt too many of these were ordered and few survived the years. This is a beautiful example with super colors, strong gloss and perfect decals. Two pin points and two light hairlines, all in rear are the only flaws. A tough doll that looks great. $180

59 Los Angeles Angels Round White Base NrMt MB $100

Neat Angels round white base, part of a 4 doll set that also includes the Dodgers, Cubs, and Umpire. This one is tough to find, I haven't had one in 5 years. Colors and paint are nice, decal has lightened a shade or two but looks fine with minor misses. As was the case back in the early 60's with many Angels dolls, the LA decal on the hat was blacked out at the factory when they thought that the Angels were moving. A small hidden chip to the inner head rim and a few scattered pin point misses in the rear are the flaws. This is a great way to add some variety to your shelf as this is the only time you will see this mold.

64 Washington Redskins 1968 Gold Base Yellow Uniform Tough Gem NrMt+ MB $140

It's been 3 years since I've had this one. This is the yellow and gold Skins doll from the 1968 Gold Base set, generally regarded as one of the toughest of the many Skins color variations. He's in beautiful, all original condition with strong colors, gloss and decals. A very faint hairline and a couple of tiny paint nicks in rear are the only minor flaws. Lovely, tough to find doll. $293

A's has some poorly done touched up nicks but could look good if they are redone with the correct color paint, the rest is in nice shape. The Phils doll has been roughly repaired but looks OK on the shelf if you don't look too close.


October 2017 Results

01 New York Rangers Mini Rare Gem MB $750

A real rare one, while the rest of the NHL minis were found in large quantities in 1990, this Ranger mini remains one of the most elusive dolls of all. He's a beauty with gem colors and gloss and super decals. Note that he has a stenciled base decal , not a fake decal like the remake has. He has had some hairline cracks to front of base and foot professionally restored but you would need to use a black light to spot it. Looks gem mint on the shelf ( the white spots you see on hair are from camera glare). Scarce and a real beauty. $3361

02 Dick Tracy Character Nodder Rare Gem MB $750
The Dick Tracy doll is very rare and sought after, they just don't come around often. This is a great looking example with beautiful coloring and gloss and solid decals.

They are both in great condition with nice glossy colors and super decals. He has no cracks or hairlines, just a pinpoint to helmet and minor flake to base.

06 San Diego Chargers 1961 AFL Toes Up Gem MB $240

A nice looking example from the tough 1961-63 AFL set. Gem colors and gloss throughout. They must have run out of Chargers decals at some point during the production run as this is at least the 4th Charger doll that I have seen with stamped logos rather than decals. He's had some professional restoration but you would need a black light to spot it, looks gem mint.$264

07 Los Angeles Dodgers Black Player Gem NrMt/Mt in Box MB $400

From the same collection as the Dodger I had last month and they don't come much better than this realistic face from the Black Player set.

08 "Atlanta" Braves Black Player Scarce Ex+ MB $300

Tough to find, have not seen one in quite some time. This one looks pretty good on the shelf with a nice Braves decal. Body is a glossy off white, head has nice colors and gloss.

09 Cleveland Indians 1960 Color Base ExMt MB $300

This is a very rare doll that usually only shows up somewhere every 5 years or so, I've only had 4 or 5 over the years. It's the first Indians doll made and is the toughest doll (along with the Cardinals) to find in the original 1960-62 Color Base set. White coloring has toned a shade but looks good with just minor surface wear to the shoulder tops. Embossed logo and orange colors are strong. All original except for a small touched up ding to corner of base. Flaws are a faint hairline in rear and a minor circular craze mark on top of his head. Tough doll!$441

10 Denver Bears Wedge Base Tough Gem ExMt MB $200
A lovely example of this tough minor league doll from the 1970-72 Wedge Base Set. The colors and gloss are lovely which is tough to find on this doll.

14 Pepe the Movie Advertising Nodder 2nd I’ve Had Gem Ex+ MB $280

"Pepe" was a film released in the US in 1960 featuring a very popular (in Mexico) actor/comedian named Cantinflas. It was nominated for 7 Academy Awards although it wasn't a financial success. Apparently the actor's quirky humor did not relate well in English and he never appeared in a US movie again. This doll was produced to promote the movie and I doubt many were made as it is very rare, it's only the second one I've had (first was in October 2012) and only the 4th one I've ever seen. This example has beautiful colors and gloss with a nice decal. Flaws are some light hairline cracks coming up from the rim and a couple of small nicks. They are well hidden on display so he looks good. A rare one! $484

The flaw is a ding to the top of his hat which can be hidden on the shelf. $55

17 Cincinnati Reds Mini Gem NrMt/Mt MB $280

The Reds mini is a pretty tough one to find and this one is an all original beauty. Solid colors throughout with strong gloss and super decals.

No chips or cracks although my black light did pick up a bit of smoothing to the head rim and a light cleaning. Looks super and very scarce.

42 Purdue Type 4 Toes Up Black Jersey Variation Rare NrMt MB $180
This is a very scarce variation, it's a Purdue example from the Big Ten Type 4 set but this one has the black jersey rather than the standard gold that is normally found. I've only seen a couple over the years so it's a very tough doll to find. He's in nice shape with solid colors and gloss. Decals are pretty good with just some minor wear. All original except for a few spot touch ups to the paint that I needed my black light to spot. Some scattered light wear and marks to the paint and a small nick to nose (well hidden by the face mask) are the flaws. Great find here for you College collectors.

64 Lot of 2 Round White Bases Tough NrMt MB $150
Two of the 4 doll set that also includes the Dodgers and Cubs.  Angels has nice off white colors and paint, decal is in pretty nice shape.

07 Houston Colt 45's White Base with Blue Uniform Gem MB $350

08 Willie Mays Correct Signature Nodder Very Rare Gem ExMt MB $350
A very rare doll and one of the few dolls left that I've never been able to offer before.

This neat example has Tom holding a cake with the logo on the front of the base and "Le Marie Antoinette" on either side (I assume that's a play on "let them eat cake"..). Colors are solid, logos are in good shape. Some very minor nicking to the head rim, otherwise solid. A really rare find here. $385
12 Bozo The Clown And His Pal Oodles Tough Gem MB $500

A pretty rare doll, doesn't show up often, last one I had was 2 and a half years ago and have only had a handful over the years. This was issued to promote Universal Studios remake of the classic movie which was released in the summer of 1962. A beautiful example with shiny coloring and paint and a solid stamped decal. (I bet Universal was thrilled when they saw the finished product, the N is backwards and the U was left out of studios!). This one is all original and looks terrific. Shiny colors with a nice label. Only flaws are some very light chipping under the head rim, the rest is super. $484
14 LSU Tigers Mascot Rare Gem MB $500

He's in great all original condition with nice decals and no chips, cracks or hairlines. A few scattered marks to the paint but all minor. Good looking, scarce doll.$300

17 Purdue Type 4 Toes Up Black Jersey Variation Rare NrMt MB $200
This is a very scarce variation, it's a Purdue example from the Big Ten Type 4 set but this one has the black jersey rather than the standard gold that is normally found. I've only seen a couple over the years so it's a very tough doll to find. He's in nice shape with solid colors and gloss. Decals are pretty good with just some minor wear. All original except for a few spot touch ups to the paint that I needed my black light to spot. Some scattered light wear and marks to the paint and a small nick to nose (well hidden by the face mask) are the flaws. Great find here for you College collectors.

18 Notre Dame Square Base Shamrock Nodder NrMt/Mt MB $200
Might be the hardest to find Irish doll, I've only had a half dozen and only the 2nd in the last ten years! It's a beauty with sharp solid colors and gloss. Decals are also strong all around. He's all original with no chips, cracks or hairlines. A very tough doll that looks great.$266

Some chips and cracks to the head have been beautifully restored and he looks gem minty on display. (any white spots you see in the pix is from camera glare).$429

21 Dallas Cowboys Type 1 Toes Up NrMt MB $150

This is the rare Oilers variation, often confused with the 1961 AFL doll. This also has a white base like the 1961 AFL doll, but is the "Bobbie Style" (shirt tucked in), rather than the baggy shirt. Extremely rare, I think I've seen fewer than 10 over the years. This one has had some cracks and chips restored and looks super with shiny colors and gloss.

24 Los Angeles Rams 1965 Gold Base Variation Gem NrMt MB $200
A very scarce doll, I've only seen this one a handful of times over the years and it's only the 4th I've had for auction. It's the 1965 Gold Base body with a head similar to a Type 2 Toes Up doll. They did not make a Rams Type 2 so it's not just a head switch, it's unique to the Rams it may have been a special order from the team. Looks super with lovely colors and gloss and great decals and horns. All original other than a few spot touch ups to the paint which blend in pretty well. I had to search with a flash light to find a couple of micro hairlines to rim. A tough one that looks great.$242

25 Los Angeles Rams 1960 Wood Base Gold Jersey Gem NrMt MB $240
A beautiful example from the very first football set, the 1960 Wood Base set. This is the first run Rams doll with the old school Gold jerseys, all subsequent Rams dolls were blue so these are much sought after.

Flaws are several short faint hairlines to the rim that blend in well.$303

33 Cleveland Crusaders Blue Base Hockey NrMt+ MB $120
A pretty tough doll, this is part of a 4 doll set that includes the Boston Bruins (NHL), Crusaders (WHA), Whalers (WHA) and Braves (AHL). This one is all original with solid colors and gloss and a super chest logo. One tiny nick to the left side of rim is very minor, otherwise no chips, cracks or hairlines. Nice example of a doll that is usually very rough. $146

34 Montreal Canadiens 1962 Square Base NrMt+ MB $90
Pleasing little Canadiens example from the original 1962 Square Base set. Colors and gloss are solid, the paint is super throughout. Decals are perfect too. Only material flaws are some very light chipping under the head rim which is hidden and minor. In the early 1970's the original owner added a painted on #27 representing star player Frank Mahovlich. I guess technically that's a flaw but I think it's kind of neat and it looks great.$90

35 Detroit Red Wings 1962 Square Base Gem NrMt+ MB $90
Shiny Red Wings example from the original 1962 Square Base set. Colors and gloss are strong and the decals are too. Only flaws are a couple of very hard to spot surface hairlines to lower head that you really have to look for. Like the previous Montreal doll, in the early 1970's the original owner added a painted on #7 representing star player Red Berenson. Rather than detracting I think it kind of adds character and history to the doll..$90

Decals are strong. Flaws are a nick and few light hairlines to the rim and a craze circle on top of hat. Nice doll. $120
39 New York Mets White Base Blue Shoes Variation NrMt MB $150
This is the neat, pretty tough to find Mets doll from the 1961-63 White Base set that features the blue shoes rather than the traditional black. He's all original and in nice shape. Uniform is a solid off white, which is the norm for this doll, and the gloss is solid too. Decals have a few small misses but look pretty good.

41 Washington Senators White Base NrMt+ MB $120
Nice looking Senator example from the 1961-63 White Base set. Interesting to note that some Senators dolls came with a different facial mold then those found with other teams (I've seen a Mets and Bosox example in this style but that's it), not sure why. This one has strong colors, nice gloss and super decals. A touch up to the hat that you'll need a black light to spot is the only flaw. $145

44 Lot of Two Chicago Bulls Lil Dribblers Gem NrMt/Mt MB $120

This doll is part of a 4 doll set that also includes the Dodgers, Cubs, and Umpire. Tough to find and this one has nice off white colors and paint. Decal is in pretty nice shape.

One of the prettiest dolls that you will see and probably the toughest 1968 Gold Base variation, this is the 49'ers with the rarer white helmet rather than the standard gold. First one of these I've had in over 5 years. Outstanding gem colors and shine, super decals and stripe, a beautiful example. All original with just some minor nicks under the head rim and a small indent to left collar area, neither of which detracts at all. This one literally glows on the shelf.$330

69 New York Yankees Gold Base Gem NrMt+ MB $120

He has super gem colors and gloss. Decals are strong with just some light flaking to chest decal and a tiny miss to hat. A factory mold flaw to chest and a very faint craze like surface hairline near right ear that you really have to search for are the only things to mention (you can see that I tried to take a pic of the craze mark but it's so fine that you can't see it in pictures). Super looking doll. $176

All original and gem minty looking, the only flaw is a very faint, thin surface hairline behind his left ear that I really had to search for.$100

Base decal is strong, chest and hat logos are good with each having a seam split. Neat halo decal version.

02 Bank Of Texas Advertising Nodder with Cowgirl 1st I've Seen Gem MB $350
The Bank of Texas Advertising Nodder Bank is very rare to begin with, I've only had two to offer over the years.

It looks great with sharp colors and gloss and a super decal. Has had some nicks and chips fixed up professionally and other than a couple of stray pin points she looks gem mint. Rare example! $609

06 Oakland Raiders 1965 AFL Earpad Tough Gem MB $500
One of the toughest football dolls, this is the scarce Raider from the 1965-68 AFL Ear Pad set. Haven't seen one in almost 2 years and have only seen a handful or so over the 16 years I've been here.

Scarce doll that looks gem mint. $1200
07 Oakland Raiders Eyepatch Square Base Tough MB $350

There are several versions of the Raider eye patch doll, but this is one of the most unique. Most Raiders that you see come on a Wood Base, this body mold is all one piece and is a bit unusual. I've seen this before and I'm confident it is a legit vintage example. Nice logos and no chips or cracks. Looks like it's had a professional cleaning and he looks minty. $1627

08 Detroit Lions Kissing Pair Rare NrMt MB $350

The Lions boy has bright colors and terrific gloss, decals are good with just a few scattered little misses. Some minor nicks and hairlines to the rim are the flaws. She's has glossy off white coloring with just some very faint hairlines to the head rim that you have to search for. A nice looking set that doesn't come around often. $865
09 Washington Senators 1960 Color Base Tough Gem MB $500
One of the toughest regular issue baseball dolls out there. They don't come around often, I've only had a handful to offer over the years. This is the only example of the original Washington Senators team that moved to Minnesota and became the Twins in 1961. The doll was quickly removed from production and replaced with the Twins so not many made it into circulation. This one is gorgeous with gem colors and gloss and super decals. My black light tells me he has had a cleaning and some work done to the hat (face is all original) but you can't tell with the naked eye. A rare doll that looks gem mint. $878
10 Mickey Mantle Round Base Muscles Version Gem MB $280

It's the only one I've ever seen (I sold this same doll a couple of years back, it's come home to roost, lol), I can't imagine many were made. This one has had some nicks and chips professionally restored and looks gem minty with super decals. Don't hold your breath for another any time soon.$319

A gorgeous all original example from the very first football set, the 1960 Wood Base set. This is the first run Rams doll with the old school Gold jerseys, all subsequent Rams dolls were blue so these are a nice rarity. This one is super with bright colors, strong gloss and super logos and horns. Only flaws are a few very faint hairlines and nicks to the head rim that don't detract at all. The original Wood Base box (no stamp but Rams written in) is in great shape. $385
29 a Green Bay Packers Type 1 Toes Up Rare Gem NrMt MB $300
This is a very scarce and under rated doll, it's only the 5th one I've had in over 15 years running these auctions. This is from the Type 1 series which featured the goofy face, small print decal with the ball held vertically. He has solid colors and gloss. Decals and helmet stripes are nice with just some minor misses. I can't really use the black light on this one because the gold metallic flake paint always glows but it certainly appears to be all original through out.

29 b San Francisco 49er's Type 1 Toes Up Rare NrMt+ MB $500

30 Pittsburgh Steelers Type 2 Toes Up Gem NrMt/Mt MB $140
Usually the Type 2's (gold base with large print decal and vertical ball) are the more common of the Toes Up but not with the Steelers, I think it's harder to find this one then the 1's or the 3's. This one is all original and gorgeous with terrific colors and shine and perfect decals and stripes. No chips, cracks or hairlines, as nice as they come. $275
31 New York Giants Toes Up NrMt+ MB $120

If you like rarities or need this for your 1965-67 Gold Base set here's your chance. $331
20 Los Angeles Rams 1965 Gold Base Variation Tough Gem NrMt+ MB $200
A very scarce doll, I've only seen this one a few times over the years and it's only the 3rd one I've had for auction. It's the 1965 Gold Base body with a head similar to a Type 2 Toes Up doll. They did not make a Rams Type 2 so it's not just a head switch, it's unique to the Rams it may have been a special order from the team. Looks super with solid colors and gloss. Decals and horns are strong with just some light wear to the base decals. All original with no cracks or hairlines, just a very tiny scrape under the rim that does not effect anything. A tough one that looks great. $425

One of the first baseball dolls produced and quite scarce, haven't had one in almost 3 years.

Looks mint on display with bright white colors and super embossed logos. If you are an expert you might be able to tell that it has had some professional restoration done to the hat and a cleaning of the body but it's almost impossible to spot without a black light. Nice doll. $180

06 Seattle Rainiers Drysdale Style Batter Rare NrMt+ MB $350
This is a very rare doll.. It's part of a 3 doll set that features a pitcher, catcher and batter and is known as the Drysdale Series as almost all of them feature the Los Angeles Dodgers. In 1962 the Seattle Rainiers Minor League club ordered a very small number of these dolls with the Seattle logos to sell at their games. I saw my first one back in December 2005 (a pitcher) and have had 3 catchers since, this is my first batter.

This one is in great shape, all original with strong colors and gloss. Comes with an S logo on hat and a Seattle logo on chest. The chest logo is interesting in that it said Seattle 1962 originally. This one must not have been sold in 1962 so they painted over the year with white paint (the 1962 is still noticeable up close). Just a micro hairline in rear and some very minor surface marks. Tough doll that looks great.$420
07 New York Yankees Wood Base Tough Gem MB $500

Rare find here.$330

Normally this one comes with the "goofy face" type one head (see last picture) however this one has the standard Type 2 style head. What makes it interesting is that I've never seen or heard of a Rams Type 2 which makes it a neat find for you collectors who are looking for rarities.

It has some very typical mold flaws but overall is pretty good and a neat fine. $140

This is the 3rd time I've seen this doll and I'm starting to think that it's a real doll rather than a repaint. .
