Holiday Auction 2018 Final Results
01 New York Yankees
1960 Wood Base Rare NrMt/Mt MB $500
A rare doll that I've
only had a handful of times and I believe this is only the 2nd
original one that I've seen and the nicest. Part of a 4 doll set
that includes the Dodgers, Giants, and Angels that preceded the
1960-62 Color Base set. This one is great looking with strong colors
and gloss and super logos. One small hairline to rear head rim is
the only flaw. Tough doll that looks great.
$605
02 Philadelphia Phillies Black Player Tough Realistic Face Gem MB $500
This is the tough "Realistic Face" Phillies doll from the 1963-66 Black Player set. Based on my experience over the years, I would say less then 20% of the Phils Black dolls were made with this mold, 80+% were the Happy Face version. Beautiful example here with bright colors and gloss and nice decals. My black light picked up some minor restoration to the hat and head rim but you wouldn't know unless you use a light. Looks mint and a tough one. $799
03 Roberto Clemente White Base Gem MB $750
Here's a gorgeous 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 solid with just a couple of tiny misses 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 restored but it's impossible to tell by looking at him with the naked eye, he looks like a lovely mint doll. $1098
04 Mickey Mantle Square Base Gem NrMt MB $300
Always nice to have a Mantle that's all original with no work done on it and this one looks great. Solid colors and gloss and the logos and signature are in perfect shape. The flaws are minor and hidden, a few light surface hairlines in rear, hidden nicks to inner part of the head rim and a slight darkening of the shellac on the rear base. None of the flaws amount to much and he looks minty on the shelf. $399
05 Roger Maris White
Base Gem NrMt MB $220
It's always nice to get top quality
superstar dolls that haven't had work done to them. This Maris is
all original and looks gem mint on the shelf with outstanding colors
and gloss and super logos. Flaws are well hidden and include a
couple of small dings to the head rim and two short faint hairlines
in rear. Great looking doll.$220
06 Willie Mays Light
Face Gem NrMt/Mt MB $280
Outstanding all original Mays Light
Face example. Gorgeous gem colors and gloss with nearly perfect
decals. No chips, cracks or hairlines. $350

08 St. Louis Cardinals Black 1963 Square Gold Base Rare Ex MB $200
A very tough doll to find from the scarce 1963-64 Square Gold Base set, I've only been able to get a hold of a few of these over the years. Displays well with nice bright colors and strong gloss Chest and left helmet decal are strong, other two decals have some misses. Some chipping to head rim and a light crack in back are well hidden on display. $242
09 Minnesota Vikings 1963 Square Gold Base Tough Gem ExMt MB $120
A pretty tough doll from the hard to find 1963-64 Square Gold Base Set. I've only had 8 of these to sell over the last 16 years. Looks good with strong purple colors and solid gloss. Embossed logos are strong, left helmet decals has some misses. Flaws are a flake to the ball and rear of base and a few hairlines to the head rim that are not visible on display.$215
10 Chicago Bears 1963 Square Gold Base Tough Gem Ex MB $100
Another really hard to find doll, this is the Bears example from this extremely scarce set, only the 5th one that I've ever had. He has beautiful colors and gloss with strong decals. Flaws are a faint craze hairline to forehead and a patched up crack to left side of the helmet. Looks good on display. $100
11 JFK Football Player
Political Nodder Tough Gem NrMt+ MB $350
A tough to find
doll, this is only the 2nd I've had in the last 5 years. From the
series of humorous political dolls back when the Cold War was in
full swing, the Kennedy's were famous for their family touch
football games on the White House lawn and this features JFK arguing
with his brother Bobby who was the Attorney General. All original
and it looks super with gem colors and gloss throughout. The decal
is great too with just one small miss. One very small hidden nick
inside of the head rim is the only flaw. Outstanding doll that is
pretty scarce. $484
12 Mao Tse Tung Political Nodder Rare Gem NrMt MB $300
Another of the rarer non sports dolls, this Cold War era example is the 1962 Chairman Mao with the comical decal "So Who You Think Start Asian Flu?". I've only had a handful of these over the years, it's a very tough find and only the 3rd one I've had in the last 8 years. He looks fabulous, all original with gem colors and gloss and a solid decal. The only flaws are 3 hairlines coming up from the rim, all hidden on display. Another tough doll that looks super.
13 Nixon For President Political Nodder NrMt MB $60
Nice Nixon For President Republican elephant doll that was produced for the 1968 Election. Solid colors and gloss with a nice logo on the sash. A couple nicks to the rim and a few scattered pin point flakes to the paint are the flaws. Nice example.$73
14 Lot of Two 60's TV
Doctors Kildare and Casey NrMt MB $80
Two good looking
examples of the famous television Doctors from the 60's, Dr. Kildare
and Ben Casey, M.D. In my opinion these are two vastly under rated
dolls, they don't show up often and I haven't had either in almost 4
years. Both dolls have solid colors and gloss and great decals. Ben
is minty with no cracks or hairlines, Dr. K. has a chip to rear of
head rim, otherwise solid. $97
15 Jasper Canadian National Park Souvenir Nodder Rare NrMt+MB $120
Only the 2nd one of these that I have ever seen... Jasper National Park is the largest National Park in the Canadian Rockies and Jasper bear is it's advertising mascot. The sticker on the base says Sky Tram Jasper Canada. The doll is all original with strong gloss and colors. No chips or cracks, sharp doll. $120
16 Kansas City Athletics Green Base Light Blue Hat Variation Gem NrMt/Mt MB $300
A tough and lovely doll from the 1963-66 Green Base set. I was lucky to have the swirl style last month, this is the flat cap version and it's a beauty. Bright colors with strong gloss and super decals throughout. All original with no chips, cracks or hairlines. Don't come much nicer. $
17 Kansas City Athletics Gold Base Gem NrMt+ MB $250
One of the prettiest dolls there are, this is 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. All original with outstanding gem colors and gloss throughout. Very strong decals (often an issue for this doll because of the pinstripes) with just a couple of tiny misses. The only flaw is a minor rub to the paint on the bottom left side of his jaw which is minor and doesn't detract at all. Super looking example that really will stand out on your shelf. $385
18 Houston Colt 45's White Base Blue Uniform Gem MB $350
The very first run of Colt 45 White Base dolls were made with their all blue uniforms which they wore only on Sundays, later issues of this doll were the traditional white so these are pretty tough to find and highly sought after. Super colors and gloss with 4 strong decals. He's had some chips and cracks professionally restored and has had a cleaning but you would need a black light to know that, looks minty. $466
19 Pittsburgh Steelers
1965 Gold Base Gem NrMt+ MB $150
A great looking 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. A couple tiny hidden scrapes to the head
rim, otherwise no chips, cracks or hairlines. The helmet decals and
helmet stripe are in nice shape with some scattered misses, base and
chest decals are super. Sharp doll. $284
20 Cleveland Browns
1965 Real Face Tough Gem NrMt/Mt MB $200
This Browns example
has become an extremely difficult doll to find, last one I was able
to get a hold of was back in 2010!! It's a beauty with outstanding
colors and gloss throughout. Decals and helmet stripes are just
about perfect. All original with no chips cracks or hairlines. A
rare one and a beauty. $293

original Packer from the 1965-68 Realistic Face set. Strong colors
and gloss throughout, decals are nice with just a touch of wear. No
chips, cracks or hairlines, nice doll. $145
22 New York Mets White Base Variation Gem MB $120
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
Great looking Giants
example from the 1961-63 White Base set. Beautiful colors and solid

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
A real beauty and the Eagles
is one of the tougher dolls to find in the 1968 Gold Base set.
Gorgeous colors and gloss, super decals. Only flaw is a small scrape
to rear head rim. Nice doll. $233
30 Denver Broncos 1968 Gold Base Blue Version Tough Gem MB $140
Tough to find doll, this is the blue helmet and jersey Bronco variation rather than the traditional Red Jersey. Only the 2nd one I've had in the last 5 years. He's a beauty with lovely colors, solid gloss and nice decals. Head is original and minty, body has had a cleaning and looks super. $194
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. Jets has strong coloring, decals
are nice with just some minor misses to the chest. Some wear to the
head rim and a few scattered flakes are the flaws. A gem Ex+ doll
that displays well. $120

A gorgeous mascot from the 1967-72 Gold Base set. All original with great colors and super gloss throughout. Strong decals with no chips, cracks or hairlines. A real beauty!

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

Gold Base Gem NrMt MB $90

43 Michigan State Baggy Shirt Toes Up Gem NrMt/Mt MB $150
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

touched up flakes to the helmet and a flake to rear rim are the
flaws.

Stanford Pottery Bank featuring an Old Time football player. This
one was made as a souvenir for a local high school team (PHS 1964)

All original with no chips, cracks or hairlines. Tough doll in great condition. $207

A gorgeous 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 and enlarged gold base,
all subsequent Rams dolls were blue so these are much sought after.
This one has gem colors and gloss with super logos and horns. I
needed my black light to tell me that he's had a few chips and nicks
professionally restored, looks gem mint on the shelf.
$198
58 New
York Giants 1961 Square Base Gem NrMt+ MB $70
The Giants example from this set has really dried up, I don't see it

There's no prettier doll than a gem minty KC A's Gold Base with the green and gold uniform and this one is gorgeous. This was a short lived doll as the A's moved to Oakland soon after production started so not many of these were made. All original with beautiful gem colors and gloss throughout. 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 super. The only flaws are a some faint hairlines to the head rim, side and rear that you have to really look for. Great looking example that really will stand out on your shelf.$367

This one is a beauty with lovely coloring and outstanding gloss. Decals are super all around. One micro hairline in back that I had to really search for is the only flaw. A beautiful example of a very tough doll.$264
32 New York Giants 1968 Gold Base Gem NrMt+ MB $80
Back about 6 months ago I offered a Giant Gold Base that was one of the nicest looking dolls that I've ever seen and this one is every bit as gorgeous.

33 Miami Dolphins 1968 Gold Base Color Variation ExMt MB $90
This is a pretty tough doll, it's the 1968 Gold Base Dolphin doll with the aqua color scheme, to me it's much tougher to find then the standard darker turquoise example. Doll has nice bright colors and solid gloss. Decals are strong with just a few tiny misses to the side helmet decals.

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

doll in the 1961-63 Square Base set and it's getting very hard to
find, I had one early this year but this is only the 2nd I've had in
3 1/2 years. 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.

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.$70
54 Detroit Lions 1965

find in this set. Only the 2nd one I've had in 3 years and
historically I only seem to be able to get a hold of one per year.
This one is gorgeous, all original with outstanding colors and gloss
throughout. No chips, cracks or hairlines. Base decal has some
flaws, other two are in nice shape with just a minor miss or two.
Original box with Red Sox sticker is solid.

flaws, otherwise no cracks, chips or hairlines. Box, no sticker is

colors and super gloss throughout. Decals are very strong which is
often hard to find on this one. One pinpoint to the nose which

Another pretty example from the inaugural AFL set which was produced between 1961 and 1963. The Texans are one of the tougher in the set and this one has nice red colors and strong gloss. The decals, including the state of Texas hemet decals are solid. He's had a few cracks and chips professionally restored and looks mint on the shelf.$350
13 Stanford Indians Mascot Nodder Tough Gem MB $400
One of the rarer College Football examples, I've had less than 10 of these in my 16+ years of running auctions. This one is a beauty with sharp colors, terrific gloss and a near perfect logo. Body is all original and beautiful, head has had a few small nicks to the head rim professionally restored and looks awesome. As nice looking as they come and a tough one. $400
14 Detroit Lions Kissing Pair Tough Gem MB $350
I'm extremely lucky to have the Lions example in two straight auctions, it might be the toughest of the set and I usually go years without seeing one. These are all original with strong colors and gloss. The Lions boy has a very faint hairline to face and a couple to rear head that are hard to find, looks super on display. 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. I'm inclined to think this is the way it originally came as they probably ran out of the standard majorettes and included this instead. She's in nice shape with just some light craze marks under the lips that you have to look for. Nice pair that is tough to come by. $350
15 Dallas Cowboys Kissing Pair Gem MB $180
A bright and colorful pair from the 1962-64 Kissing set. She has a touched up chip to the hat brim, otherwise all original and in nice shape. One light hairline to chin is hard to spot.

16 Green Bay Packers Type 1 Toes Up Gem MB $300
This is a tough one, it's only the 7th 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 beautiful colors and gloss with strong decals and helmet stripes. He's had some restoration to the head rim and looks like a super gem mint doll.$535
17 Washington Redskins Type 2 Toes Up Gem MB $140
A tough Type 2 Toes Up (ball vertical, Gold Base with large print decal). This one is solid with nice colors, gloss and decals. He has some touched up hairline cracks in rear, looks mint on the shelf. $154
18 Detroit Lions Type 3
Toes Up Rare Gem NrMt+ MB $240
Here's a great 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 4rd one that
I've ever had. He's all original with super colors and gloss. Decals
are pretty good with some light wear to the base and left helmet
decals. Flaws are a couple of hidden nicks to the head rim and two
micro hairlines. Looks super and a very tough doll.$240
19 Hall Of Fame Souvenir
Nodder Rare Only 2 Known Gem MB $200
An extremely rare doll that never
shows up, I had this once back in 2007, haven't seen one before or
since. This was sold as a souvenir at the Pro Football Hall of Fame,
neat mold and the Hall of Fame decal on chest is super. Colors and
gloss are fabulous. Some restoration has been done to rim and
helmet, body is original and he looks gem mint. Great find.
$200

Good looking Mets doll from the 1961-63 White Base set. This is the blue shoes version and he's super with solid colors and gloss throughout. Decals are nice too with just some pin point misses, One hard to spot flake to chest below the M on the decal, otherwise mint. $249

23 Washington Senators White Base NrMt MB $100
This is the neat Senators example from the 1961-63 White Base set that for some reason came with a unique face different then the standard White Base head. Head is solid with just one well hidden micro hairline in back. Body has had a cleaning and looks pretty good. $130
24 St. Louis Cardinals
White Base Gem MB $200
An absolutely gorgeous Cardinal
mascot from the 1961-63 White Base set. Gem colors and gloss

35 Buffalo Bills 1968 Gold
Base GemExMt MB $100
This is a gorgeous display example of one of the
tougher dolls in the set. Sparkling blue colors with super decals
all around, it really pops on the shelf. A small nick to the rim and
a couple of hairlines to the rear are pretty well hidden. He has a
slight mold flaw under his right eye that I took a closeup of, you
really don't notice it on display and with these great colors and
gloss it doesn't really detract.
$100
36 Philadelphia Eagles 1968 Gold Base NrMt MB $120

Outstanding colors and gloss, decals are strong. Flaws are a light
ding to left shoulder and head rim, a surface chip to right side of
helmet and a hairline in rear. Small dent on edge of base may have
been touched up although it's tough to tell with that gold paint. A
few little flaws but a gorgeous doll.

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.
43 Seattle Supersonics 1968 Gold Base Tough Gem Ex+ MB $100

46 New York Yankees Mini Team Issue NrMt MB $100
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.

Advertising Nodder Rare Ex+ MB $180
Now here's a doll that
doesn't come around often! This was made to promote the hit movie
back in 1962 and it's only the 3rd one I've ever offered, last one
was in 2008.. It's in nice condition overall with just some
scattered minor wear and some paint touch ups. Embossed logo is
nice, fur around the collar shows a bit of wear but not bad.
Rare example that probably won't show up again anytime soon.

The Opera with Correct Decal Tough NrMt+ MB $200

up often, I've 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 solid example with shiny coloring

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. All original but for two tiny paint touch ups to the
hat that you need a black light to spot. Looks super..

with just a pin point flake to the N on base. He has some scattered
spot touch ups that blend in well, otherwise original and a beauty.
35 Houston Oilers Toes Up Variation Gem MB $300
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 only know of about half a dozen or so of these out
there. Beautiful coloring, gloss and decals. He's had some work done
to his head rim but it's beautifully done and otherwise he's all
original and looks gem mint.$300
36 Philadelphia Eagles 1965 Real Face Gem NrMt+ MB $180
A
very difficult doll to find from the 1965-68 Realistic Face set.
This one is all original and a beauty with gem colors and gloss
throughout. Decals are solid with just a couple of small flaws. No
cracks or hairlines, the only minor flaws are a tiny indent to top
of left shoulder and a minor ding to the inside edge of the head
rim, neither of which detracts at all. Sharp doll.
$290
37 WAVY TV-10 NBC
Advertising Nodder Rare ExMt MB $200
Only the 4th example of
this tough doll that I have been able to offer, last one was back in
2012. It's an advertising nodder bank for the NBC affiliate in
Portsmouth Virginia and features a sailor in full uniform. Colors
and gloss are pretty good, decal is too. He has some light chipping
under the rim with some surface hairlines but looks nice on the
shelf. A very tough doll.
38 Lad A Dog Movie Advertising
Nodder Rare ExMt MB $240
Now here's a doll that doesn't come around often! This was made to
promote the hit movie back in 1962 and it's only the 3rd one I've
ever offered, last one was in 2008.. It's in nice condition overall
with just some scattered minor wear and some paint touch ups.
Embossed logo is nice, fur around the collar shows a bit of wear but
not bad. Rare example that probably won't show up again
anytime soon.
39 Beatles Carmascot Set of 4 Gem MB
$350
This is only the 2nd
Beatles set I've had in the last 2 years and they are beautiful.
Strong colors and gloss throughout with super logos. Even with my
black light it was hard to spot that they've had some light
restoration to the head rims and a gentle cleaning, they look mint
on the shelf.$667
40 Houston Colt 45's Green Base NrMt MB $180
This
is the neat Colt example from the 1963-66 Green Base set with the
cowboy hat and the Colt 45 pistol. Colors are good and the decals

Tough
to find Pirates mascot from the Green Base set, it's really dried up
lately, first one I've had in over 4 years! All original and looks
great with solid colors and gloss, decals are nice too with just
some minor misses. A well hidden chip and hairline under the left
side of his head rim and a little nick to the edge of his base are
the flaws. Nice doll.$169
43 Chicago Cubs Green Base
Tough NrMt+ MB $180
This is a pretty tough doll to
find from the 1963-66 Green base set. This one is solid with nice
colors and gloss, Logos are strong with just the usual little
nicking around the C on chest. A couple of hard to find scratch like
hairlines to rear of head that I really had to hunt for and a couple
of pin point touch ups to the ear are the flaws, otherwise minty and
all original.$244
44 Minnesota Twins 1960 Color Base NrMt MB $80

$200

Good looking Redskins from the
very first football set. Solid colors and gloss with sharp embossed

Square Base Gem NrMt MB $80
The Vikings are a bit harder to find in this set than most of the
others and this one is really nice looking. Glossy purple colors,

sharp colors and nice gloss. Decals are strong with just a tiny miss
or two. A few little nicks under the head rim and a couple of

toughie that looks great.

60 Kansas City Athletics Gold Base Gem MB $280
Sharp looking doll from the 1967-72 Gold Base set, this is the first run Gold Base with the nice green base mold. This was a short lived doll as the A's switched to Oakland soon after production started, pretty tough to come by. This one has solid colors and gloss throughout. Base decal is super, chest decal has a small factory mold indent, cap decal has a flaw as you can see. He's had some chips and nicks to the head professionally restored and looks minty.
61 Minnesota Twins Gold
Base Tough Gem NrMt MB $140
One of the toughest dolls in the
1967-72 Gold Base set, first one I've had in a year and a half. This
one looks great with nice white colors and solid gloss throughout.
Decals are pretty good with just some minor misses. Flaws are some
tint scattered pin point nicks and a couple of spot touch ups to the
paint that you need a black light to spot, otherwise minty and all
original.
$154
62 San Diego Padres Gold
Base NrMt MB $60
Solid little Padres flat cap
from the 1967-72 Gold Base set. The Padres example is always tough
in nice condition as many were very roughly made. This one looks
nice with solid colors and nice gloss. No cracks or hairlines, just
some scattered minor nicks and mold flaws to the body (head is
mint). Nice example and reasonably tough in this condition.
$66
63 Chicago White Sox
Gold Base with Green Mold Gem NrMt+ MB $70
Nice looking doll
from the 1967-72 Gold Base set, this is a first run Gold Base that

professionally fixed up and looks super with bright colors and
gloss. Decals are good with just a few tiny misses.
$60
65 Milwaukee Brewers Gold Base Paper Label NrMt MB $120
This is a tough doll to find, haven't had one in 6 years. As you may know, when the Seattle Pilots moved to Milwaukee after one season Pilot dolls were "transformed" into Brewers by removing the decals and replacing them with paper or cloth labels. This was only done for a short period of time so these are pretty scarce. This one is very nice, it has the nice Green Base mold and has solid colors and gloss with 2 nice logos. No cracks or hairlines, just some minor scattered pinpoint flakes to the hat.$150
66 San Francisco Giants Gold Base Gem MB $70

Gold Base Gem NrMt MB $100
Another pretty tough find from the
1968 Gold Base set that looks super. Strong colors and gloss, decals

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
30 Detroit Lions 1965
Gold Base Gem NrMt/Mt MB $70
Great looking doll from the nice
1965-67 Gold Base set. All original and gem colors and gloss. No
chips, cracks or hairlines and solid decals. A small factory indent
to helmet is the only thing worth mentioning, strong doll.
31 Cleveland Browns
1965 Gold Base Gem NrMt/Mt MB $100
Another lovely all
original doll from the tough 1965-67 Gold Base set. Solid colors and
gloss, no chips cracks or hairlines. Decals and helmet strip are
perfect too. Would be pretty hard to find one nicer.

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

doll that doesn't show up often, last one I had was back in mid

rim are the only flaws. Looks great.159

near mint doll on the shelf.$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. $217

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.

darkened over. Pretty tough to find. This one has bright coloring
and the decal and paper sticker are in great shape. A few light
hairlines to chin and around back are the flaws. Not mint but the
hairlines are well hidden on display so he looks real good.
$145

This is one of the
toughest dolls to find in minty looking shape, for whatever reason
the vast majority of Oilers were roughly made with excess mold and
paint issues. This is super looking with smooth paint and glossy
bright colors. Decals and helmet stripe are also super. A hairline
in rear and some smoothing of the head rim are the hidden flaws.
$220
32 Boston Patriots 1968 Gold Base Tough Gem NrMt+ in Box MB $120

restored and looks gem minty.
43 Houston Astros Mini
NrMt+ MB $140
Nice 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

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

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

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

March 2018 Auction Final Results
01 Willie Mays Gold Base Tough Gem NrMt/Mt in Box MB $500
Here's a very tough baseball doll, I'm in my 16th year of
running these auctions and I've only been able to get a hold of 8 of
these over the years. I'd have to say this is probably the nicest
one I've had or seen. He's all original with strong colors and gloss
throughout and no chips, cracks or hairlines. The head rim is so
perfect and smooth I checked 3 times with my black light because I I
thought for sure it must have been restored but it's all original.
The decals here are solid with just a couple of small misses and
that's hard to find on these Mays Gold bases. The Mays stamped box
is in fairly rough shape but is rare also. One of the nicest you'll
see. $880

Haven't had a set of Beatles in a year and a half and this set is solid. All original with nice colors and gloss and strong signatures. Just a couple of very minor scattered flaws; Ringo has some paint wear on base, John and Paul each have a tiny nick to the head rim. Otherwise super. $514

01 Chicago White Sox Wedge Base Gem NrMt/Mt MB $750
One
of the rarest of all dolls in any sport. One of only a few known to
exist, last one I saw was 5 years ago! Not only is it rare, it's
also a beauty. All original with bright colors, smooth paint and
pleasing gloss throughout. Unlike a lot of the Wedge Bases, this one
was given a full complement of decals, all in great shape. No chips,
cracks or hairlines, as nice as they come. Looks super and a great
opportunity to have a doll that almost no one else owns.
$3630
02 St. Louis Cardinals Wedge Base Rare NrMt+ MB $500
Another rarity from the 1970-72 Wedge Base set, only the 5th one
I've ever had. Comes with only the base decal (never seen chest or
hat decals on a Cards Wedge) which is in great shape. Looks super
with bright colors and strong gloss. All original with no cracks or
hairlines, just a hidden pinpoint touch up to the hair and a small
shellac drip and tiny pinpoint flakes underneath and around back
that don't detract at all. It's a rare one.
$1348
03 Roberto Clemente White Base NrMt+ MB $750
A lovely,
all original example of this tough and popular doll. Nice bright
colors and strong paint and gloss throughout. Hat and chest decals

it's super. No cracks or hairlines, the only flaw is a well hidden
little ding to the rear right side head rim. Super example.
$2140
04 Roger Maris White Base Gem NrMt MB $250
Like the
Mantle dolls, the Maris examples are often restored. This one is all
original and gorgeous with lovely colors and gloss and perfect
decals. One small, hidden ding under the head rim is the only flaw.$366
05 Mickey Mantle White Base Gem MB $250
This is the Mantle Round Base doll with the wide shoulders, also known as the muscles version. Looks great with gem colors and gloss and strong decals. He's has some cracking to the shoulder area professionally restored and a cleaning and looks minty on the shelf. $303
06 Willie Mays White Base NrMt MB $250
Nice looking, all original dark face Mays example from the 1961-63 White Base set. Solid colors and gloss, decals are good for a Mays example as they can often be quite spotty. Only flaws are some very light scattered surface marks and a few very hard to spot micro hairlines to the rim.$643
07 Chicago Cubs Black Player Square Base Variation Gem MB $500
What a pretty doll. Snow
white coloring, super gloss with strong decals. No chips, cracks or
hairlines. Body, hat and face are all original, rim has had some
chips professionally fixed up. This is the tough Square Base

09 Los Angeles Dodgers Black Player Gem NrMt MB $500
This is the realistic face version and he's a beauty with bright colors, terrific gloss and strong decals all around. All original but for hidden paint touch ups to the hat brim which matches perfectly and is impossible to spot without a blacklight. No chips, cracks or hairlines, only minor flaws are a touch of wear under the right side of headrim and a light factory shellac drip on the body around back. Solid doll. $500

11 Anaheim Angels Mini Beatles Style Rare 2nd I've Seen
NrMt/Mt MB $500
Wow, this
is a rare doll! Call it a 'double variation", it has the rare
Anaheim paper label which is tough to find as well as the very hard
to find "Beatles Haircut" head mold. This is a rare combo that I've
only seen once before, that one went for well over $1000 and it
wasn't nearly as nice as this one. This example is all original and
minty. Smooth and glossy off white coloring with strong decals and
paper label (the LA hat decal is partially blacked out which was the
norm for the Anaheim dolls). No chips, cracks or hairlines, a very
nice example of an extremely tough doll.
$985
12 Minneapolis Twins
Mini Rare NrMt/Mt 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 the mistake and changed the decal to
read Minnesota. Rarely shows up, only the 2nd I've had in 3+ years.
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. All original with lovely colors and gloss and very nice
decals. No chips, cracks or hairlines, as nice as they come.
$732
13 Green Square Base Umpire Gem MB $300
The most valuable and popular umpire doll, this was actually a part of the 1961-63 White Base set but is great also as a stand alone doll. He has gem colors and gloss, no cracks or hairlines. My black light picked up some restoration to the head rim but it's impossible to tell. Looks gem mint on the shelf. $300
14 Kansas City Athletics Gold Base Gem NrMt/Mt MB $300
I'm not sure there is a prettier doll in the hobby then the 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
here it's just about perfect, base decal is strong too. Hat decal
has some flaws but otherwise the doll is gem mint.
$399
15 Harmon Killebrew Hartland Statue With Box and Handtag Rare
Sharp MB $500

statue from Hartland Pastics original baseball player series of the
late 50's and early 60's and includes his original box and hand tag.
The statue is in great shape, colors are bright and clean with its
original bat. The home plate sits pretty flat with only a slight
bow. The tough to find tag is in great shape with just a small
ding the top. The box is solid with just some light wear and tear.
Tough set to find. $555
16 Philadelphia Eagles Black Toes Up Tough Gem Ex+ MB $300
A beauty from the very tough 1962-64 Black Toes Up set, only the 2nd
one I've had in the last 4 years. Gorgeous gem colors and gloss,
decals are nice with just a nick to the H on the base. All original,
flaws are some wear to the rim with a micro hairline under the chin
strap and a larger hairline crack in rear. Looks gem mint on the
shelf. $413
17 SF 49'ers Black Toes Up in "Colored" Box Rare Ex+ MB $500
A very difficult Black doll that I think I've only ever had 3 times, doesn't come around often. This one comes in it's rare original box that is marked "Colored 49'ers". (times have changed). The doll has strong colors and gloss with solid decals and looks super on display. Left side of head rim has some light material loss with a few corresponding surface hairlines but it's not visible unless you tilt him up. Light crazing to shoulder pad (the flash accentuates it, actually hard to see) and 2 tiny nicks to side and rear of are the only other minor flaws. Box is in nice shape with writing on the side. "Colored" stamp was applied unevenly but is partly readable.$881

A bright and colorful 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 and enlarged gold base, all subsequent Rams
dolls were blue so these are much sought after. This one has strong
coloring and gloss with super logos and horns. Only flaws are a
touch of wear to the inner head rim and a hairline crack to the
side/rear of rim. Good looking example.
24 Dallas Cowboys 1961
Square Base Gem NrMt+ MB $250
This has always been the key doll
in the 1961-63 Square Base set and it's really dried up lately,
haven't had one in 2 1/2 years. This one is a beauty, all original
with strong colors and gloss throughout. Embossed logos, stars and
stripes are great too. One surface micro hairline to rear rim is the
only flaw, and I had to really examine him closely to spot it. Great
looking example. $777
25 Stanford Indians Mascot Rare Ex+ MB $350
Very lucky to be able to offer this one in back to back auctions, it's one of the rarer College Football examples and I've only had a few of these in my 16+ year doing auctions. This one has solid colors and gloss and a great decal. The flaws are some touched up nicks to the head rim and some craze cracks to left side of the chin and mouth. They blend in well on display so he looks good. Tough doll. $350
26 Yale Baggy Shirt Toes Up Gem NrMt/Mt MB $120

29 Ottawa Roughriders Wood CFL Nodder Gem NrMt/Mt MB $150
A beauty from the very tough CFL Wood Base set. All original with bright colors and strong gloss, decals and logos are gorgeous too. A tiny nick to left shoulder and a surface split to the top of the wood base are both very minor and don't effect things. Super doll. $275
30 Vancouver Lions Small CFL Variation Gem NrMt/Mt MB $180
Another gorgeous all original
CFL doll, this is the neat "Vancouver Lions" variation from the
Small CFL set. The team was actually called the British Columbia
Lions but the team ordered some Vancouver dolls to sell at the

4th one that I have had and he's beautiful with gem colors and gloss
and perfect decals. One micro hairline under the rim, otherwise
perfect. $220

cracks professionally restored and looks minty on the shelf.
47 Philadelphia Eagles 1965 Gold Base Nice MB $60
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
48 Washington Redskins 1968 Gold Base Yellow Uniform Tough Gem
MB $150
A tough doll, this is the yellow and gold Skins doll
from the 1968 Gold Base set, generally regarded as one the toughest
of the many Skins color variations. He has super colors and gloss

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). Solid colors and
gloss, strong logos. He has had some professional restoration to the
head rim but you need a black light to spot it. Otherwise just a few
flea bite sized nicks to the paint, looks minty.

57 San Francisco Giants 1960 Color Base Gem NrMt/Mt MB $140
As nice as they come from the first baseball set, the 1960-63 Color Base set. All original with lovely white colors, outstanding gloss, perfect logos and no cracks, chips or hairlines. Not much else to say here.$250
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. One micro hairline to bottom of the chin is the
flaw but you really have to search for it. Nice doll.$427
59 New York Yankees White Base Elbows Version NrMt/ MB $140
This is the more difficult White Base Yankees version with the
elbows out, rather than the standard mold. In terrific shape, no
chips, cracks or hairlines, great decals too. Colors and gloss are
nice. Tough doll, don't think I've had this one in 5 years.
$388
60 San Francisco
Giants Wedge Base Tough NrMt+ MB $240
The 1970-72 Wedge Bases
are tough and the Giants is right near the top. It doesn't get quite
the respect of the Chisox, Cards and Phils in that set but it's
pretty tough to find, haven't had one since 2014! 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. This is the larger bank version with the blue hat and it rarely shows up, I think this is only the 4th or 5th one that I've ever had. 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
62 Los Angeles Dodgers Wedge Base Bank NrMt MB $140
Another tough to find bank, this is the Dodgers flat cap version

64 San Francisco Giants Gold Base MB $30
Here's a nice lower cost option that looks great on display for collectors on a budget. It's a pretty tough doll and he looks great with bright coloring and strong gloss. Chips in rear and hairline cracks to side and rear of rim are all hidden on the shelf. Small touched up nick to brim blends in well.
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
This is a
first run White Sox from the 1967-72 Gold Base set that used the
nice Green Base mold. Doll itself is in great shape with nice olors

flaws as you can see.
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

Los Angeles Dodgers Black Player Gem ExMt MB $350
Nice
and shiny Dodgers realistic Face example from the tough 1963-66
Green Base Black Player set. Nice coloring throughout and the

small chipping on the hat brim. Otherwise all original and looks
minty on the shelf. $385

Cleveland Indians 1960 Color Base Tough NrMt MB $300
This
is a very scarce doll that I've only had about half a dozen times
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. The colors, paint, gloss and decals are
all solid. 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

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

these over the many years I've been doing this. This one looks
super with gem colors and gloss throughout. Decals are in nice
shape with just some tiny misses to the chest decal. He's had some
nicks and chips to the head rim professionally restored and looks
gem mint on the shelf.$666

all strong. The body, face and helmet are all original, head rim
has had some professional smoothing and looks super. Looks gem
minty on the shelf.
11 Kansas City Chiefs AFL Nodder 1st I've Seen Neat MB $150
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
12 Los Angeles Rams 1960 Wood Base Gold Jersey NrMt
MB $250
A bright and
colorful 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 and enlarged gold base, all subsequent Rams
dolls were blue so these are much sought after. This one has
nice colors, strong gloss and super logos and horns. Only
flaws are some light hairlines to the head rim, a small ding to
rear of helmet and a spot touch up to top of helmet. All of the
flaws are well hidden on the shelf. $275
13
Stanford Indians Mascot Rare Gem MB $500
One of the
rarer College Football examples, I've only had a handful of these

18
St. Louis Cardinals Mini NrMt MB $250
Without
a doubt this is right up there among the hardest to find examples
from the 1961-63 Miniature set. This one has nice coloring and
gloss with strong decals. Two very fine hairlines (side rim and
back of neck) and mild surface wear are the flaws. All original
but for touch ups to rear feather and under head rim that I needed
my black light to spot. Nice looking doll.$605
19
Boston Red Sox Mini ExMt MB $100
Nice
little Bosox mini. Doll itself is solid with nice coloring and no
cracks or hairlines. Red paint has some touch ups throughout but

only run into 4 of these and this one is outstanding. Colors and
gloss are super, no chips or cracks. Embossed chest logo, base

accurate one helmet decal). They don't come much better.$440
23 Washington Redskins Type 2 Toes Up NrMt MB $140

the car decals which is pretty tough to find on this one. A few
scattered nicks and a couple of light hairline cracks are the
flaws. The Standing Driver is also pretty tough to find. This one
is a bit rough with scattered nicks cracks and touch ups but looks
pretty good on display with bright colors and strong decals. $218

basketball and football. He's in great condition with just a small

A beautiful, all
original Green Base variation. This is the variation that has the
head that is very similar to the 1960-62 Color Base set although
the Green Bases have a more tanned look. Only the Giants and
Yankees green bases can be found in this style and it is believed
that these were produced as souvenirs for the 1962 World Series.

42 Los Angeles Angels Round White Base NrMt MB $70
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. 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. No cracks or hairlines, just some scattered pin points. A neat looking doll and a pretty tough one. $77
43 Denver Bears Wedge Base Tough
Gem ExMt MB $150
A lovely example of this tough minor
league doll from the 1970-72 Wedge Base Set. The colors and gloss

of hat. Displays beautifully. $150

a lot of 3 baseball dolls in need of some repair. Includes a
fairly tough to find Yankee Green Base, an A's Gold Base and Phils
Green Base. Yankee has a great body with some wear and chipping to
the rim. 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.

white spots you see are from camera glare). As nice a mini as you
will see, a real beauty. $293
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.

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.

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,

only the 3rd one that I've ever had, last was almost 10 years ago.

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
37 New York Yankees 1960 Color Base ExMt MB $50

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

55 San Diego Padres Gold Base Gem NrMt MB $60

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.

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 lot of 3 baseball dolls in need of some tender loving care.
Includes a round green base Umpire, A's Gold Base and Phils Green
Base. Ump has some crazing to the face and head and is in need of
some paint touch ups to make him look better. 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. He's had some minor
professional restoration to a few chips to the hat and head rim.
Body is original, looks like a gem mint doll.
$750
04 Green Bay Packers Kissing Pair Variation Rare Gem NrMt+ MB
$500
A rare variation that is unique to the Packers. This
pair has the boys eyes open and the majorette's eyes closed, the
opposite of the regular series. In addition they are kissing mouth
to mouth rather than mouth to cheek as is the case with the
standard pair. This is only the 5th pair That I've had
in 16+years, last one was almost 4 years ago.. 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. She's all original, he's close with just some paint touch
ups under the rim that I wouldn't have spotted without my black
light. Rest is original and in great shape.$666
05
St. Louis Cardinals Kissing Pair Tough Gem MB $240
Another
tough pair, 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 but you need a black light to
tell and they look gem minty on the shelf.
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. All original with bright blue and white colors, solid gloss and decals. No chips, cracks or hairlines, only flaws are some pin points to base and a very small factory flaw to the right side of hat brim mentioned for accuracy's sake. A great doll. The box without a stamp has a bit of wear but is OK. $726
08 "Atlanta" Braves Black Player Scarce Ex+ MB
$300
This is a uniques and scarce doll. When the Milwaukee
Braves moved to Atlanta in 1966 leftover Braves dolls had their
Milwaukee logos blacked out to sell at the stadium in Atlanta.
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. The flaws are
some hidden wear to the rim, hairline crack in rear and a few spot
touch ups that blend in well. Not bad and a nice addition to any
Black Player Set. $550
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

lovely example of this tough minor league doll from the 1970-72

the base and around the feet, minor flaking to hair and a small
ding and hairline crack to rear of hat. Dislays beautifully.
11 Houston Colt 45 White Base with Blue Uniform NrMt+ in Box MB $450

coloring and a solid decal. My black light tells me he's been
professionally restored and he looks gem mint on the shelf. $280
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.

color, mold flaws, etc., etc. This one is very nice with smooth

only flaws are a couple of tiny nicks to rear base and one under
the head rim, all very minor. Nice example. $204
20 Chicago White Sox Mini Ex+ MB $70
Interesting
little White Sox mini. The Chisox mini is tough to begin with and
this is the moonface version which you rarely see on a White
Sox doll. Hat and base decals are great, the chest decal was put
on inside out and upside down. He looks mint on the shelf with the
only flaw being a hairline crack to the front of the neck (rear of
neck is fine) and some pin point flecks to rear head, all of which

gloss and solid decals. Great looking doll that's pretty tough to
come by.$240
23 Washington Huskies Baggy Shirt Toes Up Gem MB $140
This
one is just the opposite of the previous Oregon doll, with the
Huskies I would estimate 9 out of 10 dolls made had the regular
mold, the baggy shirts are quite rare and this example comes with
the nice darker purple coloring that you can't find with the
regular style. He has had some professional work to the head rim
and a cleaning and looks mint. No chips or cracks with nice

variation from the Small (5.5") CFL set. This is the
"Vancouver" Lions variation. In fact the team was

some of these dolls to sell at the stadium as a neat souvenir for

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). Looks like a gorgeous
gem 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 impossible to spot without a black light.
Beautiful doll. $180

A very hard to find doll that I haven't had in 4 years. This is from the 1968 Gold Base AFL subset where the old American Football League teams were originally given AFL stickers.

Only flaws are some scattered little pin point sized nicks and a slightly erratic factory paint job to the rear helmet. All original but for one tiny touch up to shoe that I spotted with my blacklight. A tough, pretty doll.$212

01 San Francisco 49'ers Promo Rare Gem NrMt/Mt MB $2500
Wow,
what a scarce doll and this is as nice as they come! As you all
know, these Promos are super rare, even with all my contacts I
only get hold of about one per year. The owner of this doll
contacted me about consigning after briefly putting it on Ebay and
getting flooded with offers. He had no idea what he had and
decided to pull it off and after doing some research he contacted
me. I'm glad he did because it's a beauty.
He's
in all original condition with super gem colors and gloss and
lovely paint throughout. Decals and stripes are very strong. There
are no chips, cracks or hairlines anywhere which is almost
impossible on these jumbos. The "flaws" are 3 pin point
sized flecks to the paint but let me tell you that is really being
picky. As rare as they come and absolutely gorgeous. $60 insured

Los
Angeles Dodgers 1960 Wood Base Gem MB $200
One
of the first baseball dolls produced and quite scarce, only the
2nd that I've had in almost 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). Looks like a
gorgeous gem 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 impossible to spot without a black
light. Beautiful doll.

York Yankees Square Green Base Gem MB $240
Wow,
what are the odds of having this very scarce doll in consecutive
auctions? This is from the Square Green Base series which were the
very first run of Green Base dolls that used the left over white
bases painted green. I know of 8 franchises that can be found in
this style (Braves, Reds, Senators, Tigers, Dodgers, Giants, and
Twins are the others) with the Yankees probably being the rarest.
They don't come around often. This one has had some chips and
cracks professionally restored and looks like a beautiful gem mint
doll with super colors and gloss, you need a black light to see
that it's been restored. The decals are perfect. Gorgeous doll.

California
Bears Baggy Shirt Toes Up Rare NrMt/Mt MB $150

This
is a tough doll, out of about a dozen Michigan State dolls that
I've had, only 3 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 that came with the black
chest decal (probably not the best choice in hindsight, lol). It's
in nice all original condition with super green paint and strong
decals. Helmet is a shade off white with a hairline in rear. A
small ding under the head rim and a pinpoint to toe are the only
other flaws, looks good.

gold that is normally found. In nice shape with solid colors and
gloss and nice decals 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

paint touch ups that I needed a black light to spot. Base decal is

split. Neat halo decal version.$96

previous Brewers doll, the Royals is another doll that is often

left side) are pretty well hidden when on display.
Angels Round
White Base - Part of a 4 doll set that also includes the Dodgers,
Cubs, and Umpire. No cracks or hairlines, just some scattered pin
points. Decal is in pretty nice shape. 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.
Indians Oddball Mini - larger than the
traditional mini doll but smaller than the regular size. Bright

is correct for this doll). Chip to rear hair is the flaw.

Signature is perfect and the other decals are strong with just a
bit of excess black above the R which is a minor factory flaw.
He's had some light professional restoration to the head rim and

pleasing colors and gloss throughout. This one comes with the
Yankees chest decal which is super with just two tiny pin point
misses if you look real close. Signature is super too. no chips,
cracks or hairlines. One tiny black mark to left sideburn is the
only flaw. Outstanding example!$910
03 Roger Maris Mini Gem MB $300
Gorgeous Maris mini with
gem colors and gloss and perfect decals. My black light picked up
some professional restoration to the left side of head rim and a
cleaning but you can't detect it with the naked eye. Looks gem
mint.$399

Here's a great looking, tough to find illustrated box for your Roger Maris mini, this will add a lot of value to your doll. It's in very nice shape with a great picture. Minor tear to the top of the box doesn't detract. Solid box that looks super. $146

original and minty. Looks great.
07 Kansas City Athletics Gold Base Gem NrMt+
Sharp looking doll from the 1967-72 Gold Base set, this is the first run Gold Base with the nice green base mold. This was a short lived doll as these switched to Oakland soon after production started so they are pretty tough to come by. This one had gem colors and gloss and strong decals, the chest logo is often a problem on this doll but not here. The only flaw is a small touched up nick to the hat brim, otherwise all original and minty. $350
08 Seattle Pilots Gold Base Gem MB $240
One of the toughest dolls from the 1967-72 Gold Base set, the
Pilots were only in existence 1 year and were quickly replaced

splits. You'll need a black light to see that he's had a
professional cleaning. Gorgeous! $301
09
San Diego Chargers Full Sized Kail Nodder Rare Gem MB
$350
Here's a neat jumbo (10.5") nodder bank designed
by Fred Kail and modeled after the Kail statues. Very rare to find
the large example, I believe its only the 3rd one I've ever
had. These oversized guys tended to get cracked banged around
and this one has had some very nice professional restoration and
looks super with gem colors and gloss, super decals and no chips,
cracks or hairlines. A circular craze mark to top of head is minor
and no stopper (if that matters to you) are the only things to
mention. Scarce doll. Last picture is for comparison purposes.

16 Anaheim Angels White Base Ex MB $90
The
Angels were scheduled to move to Anaheim in the early 60's and
although the move didn't happen for many years some LA decals were
papered over with a paper Anaheim sticker. Pretty tough to find.
This one has bright coloring and the Paper sticker is in good
shape. Chest decal is OK with some light misses, the LA hat
decal was normally painted over, this one was partially done. He's
had some touch ups and has scattered nicks and scrapes throughout.

small amount of Dodger and Giant dolls with decals and they are
pretty tough to come by. This one has nice colors and the gloss is
nice too. Chest decal has some misses but is complete. No cracks
or hairlines, the only flaws are some tiny nicks to the hat brim
paint, easy touch up if you want or looks fine as is.

Here's a nice looking Black Hawk from the tough 1968 Gold Base set. Solid colors and gloss, decals have some light misses but aren't bad. A small crack to rear head rim and some minor flaking on the base are the flaws.

20 Montreal Canadiens 1962 Square Base NrMt/Mt MB $100
Lovely
Canadiens doll from the original 1962 Square Base set. Pleasing
colors and gloss throughout, decals are perfect other than a tiny
pin point miss to the N on base. No chips, cracks or hairlines.

Lovely
Ranger example from the original 1962 Square Base set. Colors
and gloss are solid, the paint is super throughout. Decals are
strong too. Only material flaw is a tiny nick or two under the
head rim which is hidden and very minor. In the early 1970's the
original owner added painted on #19's representing star player
Jean Ratelle. I guess technically that's a flaw but I think it's
kind of neat and it looks great $120
23 Toronto Maple Leafs 1962 Square Base NrMt+ MB $90
Another
great example from the original 1962 Square Base set. Colors and
gloss are strong and the decals are too. No cracks or hairlines.
Like the previous Ranger doll, in the early 1970's the original
owner added a painted on #8 representing popular player Pierre
Jarry. Rather than detracting I think it kind of adds character
and history to the doll. $160

Reds mascot from the 1963-66 Green Base set. This is fairly tough
to find, especially with a nicely colored head like this one (many

the head rim that you have to search for are the only flaws.$160

59 Minnesota Twins 1960 Color Base NrMt in Box MB $80
Another
nice example from the original 1960-62 Color Base set. Colors,
gloss and decals are all strong. One small nick to the rear of
head rim and a faint hairline left side are the flaws and are well
hidden. Original box with Twins written in is nice.$97
60 schoepp Weirdo Nodder Crybaby NrMt MB $150
This is the "Crybaby" weirdo from the Dodger set. He has nice colors and gloss throughout and really looks good. In great shape with just one micro hairline in rear and nicks to the hat button. This one wassn't given any decals but he would fit in great with any nice Weirdo set. $360
61 New York Yankees Square Green Base NrMt+ MB $150
A
very scarce doll, this is from the Square Green Base series which
were the very first run of Green Base dolls that used the left
over white bases painted green. I know of 8 franchises that can be
found in this style with the Yankees probably being the rarest.
They rarely come around. This one is all original and a beauty
with soft white colors and nice gloss. The decals are perfect. No
cracks or hairlines, just a few minor marks to the paint near the
rim and a pinpoint nick or two. Solid doll that is tough to find.
$700
62 Detroit Tigers Square Green Base Tough ExMt MB $140
Another tough doll, this is from the Square Green Base series which were the very first run of Green Base dolls that used the left over white bases painted green. I know of 8 franchises that can be found in this style and this one is very pretty. The head is all original and minty and has the beautiful dark orange color that sometimes can be found on the Tigers, the colors really pop. Body has had a light cleaning and looks good. Decals are strong. $154
63 Houston Astros Wedge Base Orange Hat Gem Ex MB $60
This one literally glows on the shelf with super bright orange colors. This is the Astros Orange Hat version from the 1970-72 Wedge Base set. He has some flaws, including flaking to the base paint and several light cracks coming up from the rim, but if you like pretty, colorful dolls this one is for you. Decals are super which is hard to find on these Wedge Bases.
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. 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. No cracks
or hairlines, just some scattered pin points. Umpire looks good
too with sharp colors and gloss. Scattered marks to the paint and
some thin hairlines to the face and rim blend in well on display.
65 New York Yankees Team Mini NrMt MB $90
This is the mini that the Yankees ordered during the mid 60's, they also had a full sized example produced. All original with smooth off white coloring and strong logos. Flaws are some chipping under the head rim and a couple of hidden touch ups. Otherwise all original and nice on display. $90
66 Los Angeles Rams 1960 Wood Base Gem NrMt+ MB $70
Lovely little Rams example from the 1960 Wood Base set. Super coloring, paint and gloss throughout. Embossed logos and horns are super too. One faint hairline to back head rim is the only flaw. $110
67 Pittsburgh Steelers 1960 Wood Base NrMt+ MB $90
The
Steelers are one of the tougher dolls in the 1960 Wood and 61
Square sets, the Wood Base example is particularly hard to find.
This one is in great shape with solid colors and gloss and a nice
logo. No chips, cracks or hairlines. The helmet has had a cleaning
otherwise all original and nice. $132
68 Philadelphia Eagles 1961 Square Base Champions ExMt MB
$70
This is a pretty difficult doll to find, normally the
Champions 1960 logo is found on the Wood Base examples, the Square
Bases are usually blank or have the NFL logo. Looks great on
display with nice bright colors and gloss and super logos all
around. Flaws are a light crack to rear rim, nicks to helmet and a
touched up hairline to chin that blends in well.$77
69 Green Bay Packers 1961 Square Base NrMt MB $90
This doll has really dried up lately, haven't had one here in over 3 years. This one is in solid shape with bright colors and no cracks or hairlines. Chest logos is strong, left helmet decal has a miss or two, stripe has some minor scraping but looks Ok. $99
70 Lot of 2 1961 Square Bases Nice MB $70
Here's a lot of two 1961 Square Base NFL dolls. I can tell you they look better in person then in the pix
(the flash really picks up on
the shellac). Cardinals has strong red colors with solid decals.
No cracks or hairlines. Only flaw is some excess shellac to the
helmet, mainly side and rear, looks good from the front. Likewise
Colts displays well with glossy blue colors and solid logos.
Excess shallac, under head rim and in rear is well hidden on
display. A couple of nicks and light hairlines but nothing major.
$77
71 San
Francisco 49'ers 1968 Gold Base Gem NrMt MB $100
I had a beautiful White Helmet

and gloss with perfect logos. No cracks or hairlines, a really
lovely example. $121

New York Giants 1968 Gold Base Gem NrMt MB $60
A beauty with like new colors and gloss and pretty strong decals. He has some scattered touched up nicks but they blend in well and are hard to spot. Looks gem mint on the shelf.
73 Kansas City Royals Gold Base Gem ExMt MB $80
This is a very bright and colorful Royals example, not the easiest doll in the 1967-72 Gold Base set by any means. Super white and blue colors with terrific gloss. Base and chest decals are strong which is normally a problem on the Royals dolls. Hat decal has some minor misses. No cracks or hairlines, the flaws are scattered nicks and flakes to the paint, mostly ears and hat. Looks pretty on the shelf. $80
74 Washington Senators Gold Base Gem NrMt MB $180
This
is the very tough to find red hat Senator with the script W on hat
from the 1967-72 Gold Base set. One of the toughest in the set,
it's a very condition sensitive doll and this one is a beauty with
bright colors and gloss throughout. Decals are pretty strong with
just a factory mis to the S on base and a seam split to the hat W.
All original with no cracks or hairlines. Some areas of extra
shellac and a couple of pin points are the only minor flaws. Hard
to find doll that looks great. $290

77 Texas Rangers Gold Base Gem NrMt/Mt MB $100

78 Chicago Cubs Gold Base Gem NrMt/Mt MB $100
Another
beauty from the Gold Base set. Super colors and paint with
outstanding gloss. Decals are strong, the Cubs logo on the chest
is about as nice as I've seen, usually it chips pretty badly.
Close to gem mint with just two tiny micro hairlines to rear of
rim that you have to search for and a pin point flake to ear. A
terrific Cubbie example. $121
79 St. Louis Cardinals Gold Base Gem NrMt+ MB $80
Not the rarest doll out there but it's pretty tough to find in top condition. This one has super colors and gloss and the decals are sharp too. A couple of small shellac drips are the only minor flaws. No chips, cracks or hairlines. $77

Broncos 1961 AFL Toes Up Tough Gem NrMt MB $350
Another tough
find from the 1961-63 AFL set. This features the Broncos in their
original brown and gold color scheme, before they switched to
orange and blue. This one had very nice colors and gloss
throughout. The decals are in good shape with just a few light
misses. Only flaws are a couple of small, well hidden nicks under

passing. Rest is minty. $350

Dallas Texans 1961 AFL Toes Up Tough NrMt MB $350
Another tough
one from the 1961-63 AFL Toes Up set, this is the Dallas Texans
franchise which later became the KC Chiefs. The coloring and gloss
are very nice and the decals are too, including the neat State of
Texas helmet logos. A slight indent to the mold near the AS on
base is the only flaw there. Doll is all original and in nice
shape with just a ding to the rim (fortified with adhesive so it's
solid) and a few fine hairlines.$605
06
Green Base Umpire Tough Gem NrMt/Mt MB $300
The most valuable
and popular umpire doll, the scowling ump with the face mask and
whisk broom. Although he comes on a square green base this was
actually made as part of the 1961-63 White Base set. You can
display on it's own or it fits in with both the White and Green
Base sets.
A pretty tough doll to
find and this one is super. He has shiny gem colors and gloss and
smooth paint throughout. No chips, cracks or hairlines, just a few
scattered pin points mentioned only in passing. All original and
minty.$538
07 Houston Colt
45's White Base with Blue Uniform Gem MB $350
The very first
run of Colt 45 White Base dolls were made with their all blue
uniforms which they wore only on Sundays, later issues of this
doll were the traditional white so these are pretty tough to find
and highly sought after. Nice shiny colors and gloss, 3 decals are
perfect, missing his hat decal. He's had some chips and cracks
professionally restored and has had a cleaning, looks minty.
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. 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
beautiful coloring and gloss. Decals are solid and the
signature is perfect. A couple of well hidden chips to sides of
head rim are the flaws. A very tough doll that looks gem mint on
the shelf. $1464
09 Roger
Maris White Base Gem MB $200
Roger Maris example from the
1961-63 White Base set. Bright white colors with strong gloss and
super logos. He's had some chips and cracks restored

This
is the Mantle Round Base doll with the wide shoulders, also known
as the muscles version. Body is all original and lovely with solid

work done and looks good with sun burnished like colors and no
chips or cracks. $250
11 Tom Pouce Advertising Nodder Rare Only 3rd One
I've Had NrMt MB $350
A very rare advertising doll, only the
3rd example that I have been able to offer, last one was 5 years
ago. A Tompouce is the name of a famous European pastry and
there was and still is a famous restaurant chain in Europe called
Tom Pouce.
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
Gorgeous lot
featuring the iconic Bozo The Clown, a tough one to find, and his
sidekick Oodles The Duck. Both dolls have had some nicks and
chips beautifully restored and look gem mint on the shelf.
The only way you can tell they've had some work done is with a
black light. Super pair that are hard to locate, especially
together. $500
13 Phantom
Of The Opera Nodder Tough Gem NrMt+ MB MB $250
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
An extremely rare doll, only the 5th one
that I've been able to find in my 16 years selling these. A
very detailed doll with a great paint job and super colors and
gloss. Embossed logo is strong. He's had some minor nicks and
chips professionally restored but you'll need a black light and a
well trained eye to spot it. A gorgeous example of a very tough to
find doll. $605
15 Baylor
Bears Mascot Gem NrMt MB $140
Bright and shiny Baylor Bear
mascot. Great colors, solid logo. Flaws are some light chipping
under the head rim and some scattered surface marks to the paint.
Displays great. $169
16 The Citadel Type 4 Toes Up Rare only the 2nd I've
Had NrMt+ MB $300
Well, this is a really rare doll. This is
from the neat Type 4 College set (ball horizontal, bullet shaped
head on various colored bases) and the only other one that I've
seen was in my June 2009 Auction. 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
19 Pittsburgh Steelers Black Toes Up Tough Gem NrMt
MB $350
Hard to find doll from the very tough 1962-64 Black
Toes Up set. Looks good with nice colors and gloss and solid
logos. Flaws are some scattered surface wear to the gold paint
which is typical, a hairline and light ding to the head rim and a
small touched up ding to the helmet stripe in rear. Otherwise all
original and solid.$451
20
Pittsburgh Steelers Type 1 Toes Up Gem MB $240
A very scarce
example, this is the tough to find Type 1 example ( ball vertical,
goofy face, gold base with the small decal). Only the 3nd one that
I've had in the last 10 years. Colors and gloss are super, no
chips or cracks. Embossed chest logo, base decal and helmet decal
and stripe are super (note the historically accurate one helmet
decal). 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
Another tough to find doll from the "Type 1"
series (goofy face, ball vertical, small base decal or embossed
NFL logo), haven't had one in two years. He has nice shiny blue
colors and solid decal. He doesn't have any cracks or hairlines
but does have scattered light wear and surface marks to the paint.
Nice doll that's pretty tough to find. $165
22
Pittsburgh Steelers Type 3 Toes Up Ex MB $120
A pretty tough
doll, this is the Type 3 Toes Up (bullet shaped head, ball
horizontal on a gold base with large base decal). Strong colors
and gloss, decals are nice with some light wear to base decal.
Flaws are some chips and a series of light hairlines coming
up from the rim. Looks fine on display.
23 Houston Oilers Toes Up Variation Gem MB $300
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. Helmet stripe, chest and
side helmet decals are super, base decal has some misses. Looks
minty. $330
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. This one is super
with bright colors, strong gloss and super logos and horns. Only
flaws are a couple of light surface craze like hairlines to top of
helmet. Looks super.$264
26 Los Angeles Angels Green Base Gem NrMt MB
$90
Great looking Angels flat cap from the 1963-66 Green Base
set. Lovely colors and gloss with super decals. Flaws are a light
ding and a couple of faint hairlines to the head rim.$109

A
gorgeous original Red Sox example from the 1963-66 Green Base set.
Bright colors, super paint and gloss throughout. Decals are great
with just a seam split to the R on chest. No chips, cracks or
hairlines. Great little flat cap version. $133
28
Houston Colt 45's Green Base Gem NrMt/Mt MB $200
Super looking
doll that is popular and very tough to find. One of the tougher
examples in the 1963-66 Green Base set and this one is a
beauty. All original with gem colors and gloss, perfect decals and
no chips, cracks or hairlines. They don't come any better! $266
29 New York Mets Green Base NrMt+ MB $90
Solid
little Mets flat cap style from the 1963-66 Green base set. Super
blue colors with a pleasing off white uniform. Strong decals. A
couple tiny flakes to bottom edge of base and a pin point or two,
no chips, cracks or hairlines. $90
30 Philadelphia Phillies Green Base Crooked Cap Gem
NrMt+ MB $120
Here's the popular sideways hat style Phils doll
from the 1963-66 Green Base set. Bright colors and strong gloss,
decals are very nice too. One micro hairline to rim and a small
flake to base paint are the minor flaws. Nice doll.$120
31 Chicago Cubs Green Base Gem MB $150
This has
become a very tough doll again, haven't been able to offer one in
almost 3 years. One of the keys to the 1963-66 Green Base set and
he features bright colors and gloss with nice decals. He's had
some nicks and chips professionally restored and looks mint on the
shelf.$299
32 Boston Bruins Small High Skates Tough Gem ExMt MB
$250
Nice looking original example from the Small High Skates
set (5.5"), also referred to as the Intermediate High Skates
set. This is a tough doll as are most of the smaller HS
dolls. Shiny colors and gloss, decals are good with just a
couple of tiny misses to the base decal. 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
36 Baltimore Clippers 1962 Square Base Hockey Gem
NrMt MB $120
Super minor league hockey example with the unique
3 sided decal. All original with gem colors and gloss. The two
front decals that show are super, side decal has a couple of
misses. A minor nick to his nose and light flake to shoulder are
the flaws.

$220
Beautiful Hershey Bears minor league example from the 1962
Square Base set. Pleasing colors and gloss, has a replacement
decal that looks great. Two hairline cracks in rear are the flaws.
38 Chicago White Sox White Base Gem NrMt MB $120
Good
looking Chisox example from the 1961-63 White Base set. The blues
are bright and really pop on the shelf, uniform is a glossy off
white which is common on the White Sox examples. 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. All
original with no cracks or hairlines, just a small flake to lower
lip. Would be an easy touch up if you like but looks fine as is.
$220
40 Houston Colt 45's
White Base ExMt MB $90
This is the standard Colt 45 White Base
doll with the white uniform. Nice off white uniform with brownish
orange trim. All 4 decals are strong. No cracks or hairlines bt
does have a touch up under the chin that can be seen when you tip
the head back but not on display. $121
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
42
Harlem Globetrotters Lil Dribbler Gem NrMt/Mt MB $80
Colorful
Globetrotter Lil Dribbler with gem colors and gloss. Decals are
strong too. No cracks or hairlines, just a tiny pin oint
flake to his sock. A pretty tough example. $90
43
Philadelphia 76'ers Black Lil Dribbler MB $40
The Sixers
examples from the 1969 Lil Dribbler set, both black and white, are
very tough and don't show up often. This one looks gem minty
from the front with just some pin point flaking to the ball. There
are two cracks to the back of the legs (front is fine) that could
easily be fortified with glue and touched up if you like or it
looks fine as is on display. $54
44
Lot of Two Chicago Bulls Lil Dribblers Gem NrMt/Mt MB $120
Great
lot of 2 Bulls dolls, the white player in particular is a pretty
tough one. Both are gem minty with super decals. A pin point flake
or two are the only very minor flaws. $132
45
Boston Celtics Lil Dribbler Gem NrMt MB $50
Neat doll, produced
in Taiwan after the Japan Lil Dribbler set, they probably saw a
marketing opportunity since the Celtics were left out of the
original Japan set. Doll is unique in that it is a Little Dribbler
as well as a Bobbing Head doll. He has gem colors and shine with
solid decals. One faint hairline in rear and a shellac drip or two
are the flaws.
46 Los Angeles Lakers Gold Base Gem NrMt/Mt MB
$60
Outstanding gem colors and gloss with super decals. All
original and about as nice as they come, I had to really search
for a tiny craze hairline to the rim, otherwise just about
perfect. $60
47 Seattle
Supersonics 1968 Gold Base Tough Gem NrMt/Mt MB $120
This is a
tough basketball nodder that doesn't show up very often. Gem
colors and gloss throughout. Chest decal is super, this one was
given a painted base logo (they seemed to be very low on decals
for this short lived set, I've had painted Sonics before and the
Lakers example often comes with a painted logo too). One micro
hairline to the rim that I had to really search for is the only
flaw. $120
48 Rumpus Room Bowler Rare NrMt+ MB $80
One of the
toughest Rumpus Room dolls of all, only the 2nd one that I've ever

shape with bright colors and solid paint. The logo on base is in
super shape. No cracks or chips, just some scattered marks and pin

50 Los Angeles Angels Round White Base NrMt MB $80
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. 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. No cracks or hairlines, just some scattered pin points. A neat looking doll and a pretty tough one.

perfect. A very tiny ding under the head rim and some minor

Notre Dame example). Pleasing colors and gloss with nice logos.

hidden chips to the rim. Nice looking. $80
60 Mississippi State Bulldogs College Variation Tough

now seen Miss State, New Mexico, Duke and a Liberty Bowl doll in

A
beauty with like new colors and gloss and strong decals. He has
some scattered paint flakes which could be easily touched up if
you wanted but it looks great as is. Really glows on the
shelf.
66 San Francisco 49'ers 1968 Gold Base White Helmet
Variation Rare Gem MB $150
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

standard yellow jersey. This one has dried up again, haven't had
one in a year and a half. It's a first run doll with the nice
Green base mold. Bright white colors and solid gloss. decals have
a few light misses but look pretty good. Micro hairline in rear,
small mold flaw under chest decal and a couple of little
marks and nicks are the only minor problems. Looks good.
$150
69 New York Yankees
Gold Base Gem NrMt+ MB $120
Gorgeous pinstriped Yankee example
from the 1967-72 Gold Base set. Very under rated, I find this to
be one of the tougher dolls in the set, especially looking this
good. 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

drips. No cracks or hairlines. $70
72 San Francisco Giants Gold Base Gem NrMt+ MB
$100
Here's a beautiful little Giant from the 1967-72 Gold Base
set. The Giants are one of the trickier dolls to find in this set,
they just don't come around very often. This one is a beauty with
bright glossy colors throughout. Decals are in nice shape with
just some minor flaws. 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

looking Bucco mascot from the 1967-72 Gold Base set. Bright colors
and strong decals. He's had some cracks and chips professionally
restored and looks mint on the shelf.
74 California Angels
Gold Base NrMt MB $90
A very under rated doll in my opinion,
the Angels from the 1967-72 Gold Base set is pretty tough to come
across. Minor flaws are a micro hairline to chin, small mark to
dimple and a couple of well hidden paint touch ups that I needed a
black light to spot. Base decal is strong, chest and hat logos are
good with each having a seam split. Neat halo decal version.
75

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. This one is
really unique in that it has a Cowgirl rather than a Cowboy, I
guess they are a pair but this is the first cowgirl I've seen
(I've included a pic ot the Cowboy for comparison purposes). 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!

Mao Tse Tung Political Nodder Tough Gem NrMt+ MB $400
One of
the rarer non sports dolls, this is the 1962 Chairman Mao with the
comical decal "So Who You Think Start Asian Flu?". I've
only had a handful of these over the years, it's a very tough find
and only the 2nd one I've had in the last 6 years. He looks
fabulous, all original with gem colors and gloss and the decal is
perfect. The only very minor flaws are a micro hairline in rear
and an incidental pinpoint mark or two and that's being very
picky. Super doll.
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. This one is gorgeous with super colors and
gloss and solid decals. My black light picked up professional
restoration of some chips and cracks but you can't tell with the
naked eye. 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
This one
doesn't have the notoriety of the Redskins Kissing set but it's
probably harder to come by. For a set that is fairly available
this is only the 5th one I've been able to come across making it a
very tough find. The pair are all original and look nice. 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
Great

Shiny, good
looking example from the tough to find Black Toes up set. Sharp
colors with terrific gloss throughout. Embossed chest logo is
super, base and helmet decals have some light flaws as you can

of flaking to the bottom edge of the base are the flaws, looks
sharp. $399

Another beauty from the
very tough 1962-64 Black Toes Up set, first Eagle I've had in 3
years. Gem colors and gloss, decals are nice with just a flaw
where the a and d come together, it was slightly misapplied at the
factory. Body is original, he's had professional restoration to
the helmet and looks great. A gem mint looking doll for your
shelf. $424

Wow, a tough doll in super all original condition. I've
only had this doll once before, back in 2012, it's as rare as they
come. This one is a beauty with bright colors, nice gloss and a
strong decal. I searched high and low and the only flaw I could
find were a couple of flea bite sized nicks under the rim and that
is really being picky. Rare and as nice as you'll find. $2357
17
Baylor Bears Mascot Gem MB $150
Gorgeous, gem minty looking
Bear mascot. Great colors and gloss, super logo. No flaws but did

A very under rated doll,
last one I had was 2 years ago and have only had a handful over
the 16 years I've been here. Great looking Chisox example with

cleaning and a smoothing of the head rim and looks minty. Decals
are solid too. Lovely doll that's tough to come by. $193
20
Los Angeles Dodgers White Base NrMt/Mt MB $100
Had a Dodger
from the 1961-63 White Base set last month too but the last one I

the side of the feather that you would need a black light to find.
Nice looking doll. $264
23
Mississippi College (not University of Mississippi) Only One I've
Seen Gem MB $240
This is a team ordered Mississippi College
Choctaws example, which at the time was a Division 3 Football
school. 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
24
Nebraska Baggy Shirt Toes Up Rare Gem MB $240
A very rare
college doll. This is only the 4th Nebraska doll that I've seen, 2
had decals and the other one had painted logos like this one has.
Looks gorgeous with gem colors and gloss and sharp logos. Body,
face and helmet are all original, rim has had a smoothing but you
need a black light to spot it. Gorgeous example of one of the most
difficult college examples. $240

I've only had a few times over the years. One of 5 College teams
that can be found with this mold, Army, Navy, LSU and Tulane are
the others. This Fighting Irish example is in nice original shape,
smooth paint and nice gloss throughout. Decals have a few light
misses but look OK. Hairline cracks to each side of the helmet are
the flaws. $100
28 Los
Angeles Rams 1960 Wood Base Gold Jersey Gem NrMt+ in Box MB $250
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. An extremely faint hairline to the right
side of chin and some minor scattered paint wear are the flaws.
Looks solid. $531
29 b San
Francisco 49er's Type 1 Toes Up Rare NrMt+ MB $500

This is only the 3rd Type 1 (goofy face, ball verical with small print decal on the base) 49'er that I've ever seen. Strong all original condition with bright coloring and solid decals and stripes. No cracks or hairlines, only flaws are some minor red paint marks to the pants and some mild scattered pin points that don't detract at all. Super example. $733
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

Globetrotter with the blue base and colorful decals has become
quite difficult to find lately, it's been almost 3 years since

decals are in very nice condition. No cracks or hairlines. All
original except for a couple of pin point touch ups to the hair
that my black light picked up. Nice doll. $140

40
Cincinnati Reds Green Base NrMt+ MB $100
Another doll from the
1963-66 Green Base set that is pretty tough to find in top
original condition. The ball heads on all Reds dolls were
given excess shellac which caused yellowing but this one is much
brighter than most that you see, it really looks good. It's all
original with nice colors and gloss and strong decals. Only minor
flaws are a tiny scrape under the rim and a faint hairline in
rear. Tough doll that looks great. $152
41
Washington Senators Gold Base Tough Gem NrMt+ MB $180

ups to the head rim. Otherwise all original and gem minty looking.

traditional mini doll but smaller than the regular size. Bright
colors, sharp gloss and strong decals (hat decal painted on which

that also includes the Dodgers, Cubs, and Umpire. Tough to find
and this one has nice off white great colors and paint. Decal is
in pretty nice shape. As was the case back in the early 60's with

the camera flash) on the shelf. 3. St. Louis Cardinals 1968 Gold

marks to the paint. Looks minty on display.$660

very tough doll from the very first football set, the 1960 Wood
Base set. This is the first run Rams doll with the old school Gold

guess someone in bobbing head production didn't get the message,
lol), All further Rams dolls were blue so these are a nice rarity.

logos, stripes and helmet horns. I needed my black light to see
that he has had a cleaning and some professional restoration to
the rim. Looks gem mint. $280

Suffice it to say that it's quite rare and one of only 5 AFL dolls
known in this set. This one has had some restoration done and
looks gem minty with bright colors and gloss and no cracks or
hairlines. Decals have a couple of misses but look OK. 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
21 Los
Angeles Dodgers 1960 Wood Base Gem MB $180
One of the first
baseball dolls produced and quite scarce, haven't had one in
almost 3 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). 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
22
Boston Red Sox 1960 Color Base Tough NrMt+ MB $140
A tough one
from the very first baseball set made, have only had a couple in
the last 5 years. Solid condition with nice gloss and good

incidental marks to the paint are the only flaws. All original and
a nice example of a tough doll.$312
23
Chicago Cubs Wedge Base Tough Gem MB $180
A very tough to

This doll
is part of a 4 doll set that also includes the Dodgers, Cubs, and
Umpire. Very tough to find and this one is super with great colors
and paint. Decal is strong with just one tiny miss to the L. As
was often the case back in the early 60's with Angels dolls, the
LA decal on the hat was blacked out at the factory when they
thought that the Angels were moving. No chips, cracks or
hairlines. A neat looking doll and a tough one.
25 Houston
Astros Round White Base NrMt+ MB $80
Great looking Astro on
a round White base, this was a team ordered doll and is
pretty tough to find. Solid bright colors and great decals. Only

26 USC Trojans Felt Helmet Tough Gem NrMt+ MB $140
Probably
the first Japan made football doll, this is the rare, unique felt
helmet USC Trojan doll (they also made UCLA and L.A. Rams examples

helmet usually is kind of ratty, this one is beautiful. Body paint
and logos are super too. Looks to be all original although with
these Felt Helmet dolls it's really hard to tell even with a
blacklight. Tough doll, only the 2nd one I've had in over 5
years.
27 Air Force Academy Mini Gem MB $100

Wow, I had heard rumors that this doll existed but until now have not actuall seen one. It's a Frank Sinatra mini bobbing head that was produced to promote the 1962 movie Sergeants 3 (see picture of movie poster, not included). Old Blues Eyes played First Sergeant Mike Merry and the likeness is very good (I've heard that they also made a Dean Martin nodder but have never seen one).

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
This is the 3rd
Yankees Wood Base version that I've had recently but don't be
fooled, it's a very tough doll to find, before these 3 I had only
2 in 15 years. Part of a 4 doll set that includes the Dodgers,
Giants, and Angels that preceded the 1960-62 Color Base set. This
one looks great with bright colors and gloss. Hand painted logos
are a bit thin but OK. He's had a professional cleaning and some
work to the head rim and he looks very shiny on the shelf.$500

Kentucky Type 4 Toes Up Rare Gem MB $300
Another impossible to
find doll from the tough Type 4 Series, never had one before and

and the neat decals are strong. Rare find here.$330
10
Mississippi State Type 4 Toes Up Rare Gem MB $300
Another
terrific looking, hard to find doll from the Type 4 Toes Up set.

great, you can just make out the remnants of the cracks. Rare
doll, first one I've had to offer.$330
11

looks mint and he's another toughie.$300
12
Roger Maris Mini Gem MB $300
Gorgeous little Maris mini that

and has had a cleaning to the body and looks gem minty on the
shelf.

the unique "Beatles Haircut" style Angels doll, quite

19
Los Angeles Rams Type 1 Toes Up Variation Gem MB $150
Interesting
LA Rams Toes Up Variation doll from the Type 1 Toes Up Series. As
with this example, the typical Rams Type 1 has the vertical ball
and small print decal on the base. 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. He's had some nicks and chips professionally fixed up
and looks gem minty with nice decals and horns. Neat doll.$150

serious. Decals are nice, too. Outstanding example. $200

24 UCLA 1959
Felt Helmet Probable Prototype Neat and Rare MB $140
This is a
hard to find and really neat doll. I believe it was a prototype
for the 1959-62 Felt Helmet series which featured UCLA, USC, LA
Rams and possibly Arizona State. All are rare and most of them
featured a felt helmet and paper mache bodies and faces. This one
is completely felt, even the decals. It has some very typical mold
flaws but overall is pretty good and a neat fine. $140
25
Arizona State Felt Helmet Neat MB $80
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. . The same style as the USC and UCLA
1959-60 Felt Helmet examples (there's also an LA Ram example). and
has the same colors as the USC doll but the colors are inverted.
The body is paper mache with felt on the face, pants, shoes and
stripes. Sun Devils logo is nice. He has a seam split to each side
but overall looks real good.$80
26
Wisconsin Badgers Square Base Tough NrMt+ MB $240
This
is the unique Wisconsin Badger Square Base doll with the embossed
W on the helmet. A very tough doll, first I've had in 3 1/2 years
and only the second in the last 7 years. He's all
original and the only flaws are a micro hairline to the rim that
you have to search for, flake to base and some toning to the
shellac, mostly to the rear. Looks good and a scarce doll.
$290
27 Baylor Bears Mascot
Gem NrMt MB $180

side. A few little scattered paint nicks are the only flaws.$50
34

the toughest to find Rumpus Roomer, never had the bowler before

35
Blinky Eyed Umpire Tough NrMt+ MB $80

doll, this is the Umpire from the 4 piece blinky eyed Little

36 Pittsburgh Pirates Bank Gem NrMt+

Sharp lot of 4
Baseball dolls in great shape.

NrMt/Mt - part of a 4 doll set that also includes the
Dodgers, Cubs, and Umpire. Tough to find and this one has great
colors and paint. Decal is strong with just one tiny miss to the
L..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. No chips, cracks or
hairlines.
2. Astros Pale Face ExMt -team ordered doll,
commonly referred to as the "pale face" Astro as the
facial coloring was usually quite light. These dolls were
generally poorly made and are always found with paint and mold
flaws. This one has some minor issues in that regard and no cracks
or chips.
3. Astros Round White Base NrMt -another team issued
doll. Solid bright colors and great decals. Only flaw is a small
indented ding to the left side of the neck/shoulder.

mini doll but smaller than the regular size. Bright colors, sharp
gloss and strong decals (hat decal painted on which is correct for

A
tough doll from the very first football set, the 1960 Wood Base
set. This is the first run Rams doll with the old school Gold
jerseys (they had actually switched to blue jerseys in 1957 but I
guess someone in bobbing head production didn't get the message),
all subsequent Rams dolls were blue so these are a nice rarity.
This one is very nice with solid colors and gloss (pants have
toned a shade but look fine) and perfect logos, stripes and helmet
horns. All original with the only flaws being a micro hairline to
