Just returned home from buying a massive collection of pocket schedules from 1930's to 1990's...Mostly Detroit Tigers.

Had to share some pics as I begin to sift thru these...PHOTO HEAVY

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.

    Wouldn't it be great if the original collector slipped a couple cards into those schedules as a memento? image

    Those are nice I have a boat load of them myself but nothing that old. Enjoy

    Very nice. Funny how the one growling tiger picture got used over and over again. LOL

    Nice collection. Like the Red Sox ones. The 62 Houston Colt 45's one should be special.Notice on the 36 and 40 Tigers schedules they seperate the word "Baseball" as if the word is 2 seperate words-Base (space) Ball.

    Nice score. I love that bgs slabs pocket schedules. It's a nice way to get a collectable of college players that never made the pros.

    Dude, I am so jealous. Would love those for my mancave. I have some from mid 70s with the Tiger logo, but love the ones that have the Stroh's ads!!

    Awesome collection there. I always had a fondness for pocket schedules. Still have a few from the '70's Yankee Stadium days but this is a great vintage group you have.

    Thanks for all the feedback as I enjoy sharing my excitement over this collection with other like minded folks...I'm having a blast sifting thru all these binders. The seller collected these himself in the 80's and 90's and was very meticulous in chasing sets from Crown, Distinctive, Michigan Mutual, Det News/Free Press etc. etc. There's also a nice run of Tiger ticket stubs from 1936 and up including opening day stubs for 38' and 39'. About half the binders are older stuff 30's to 70's with the other half from 80's-90's. By the time I finish looking thru every binder, I forget what was in the first ones and get to start over again.
