Give a well-deserved nod of approval, for this better grade selection of (5) 1960s baseball mascot bobble head figures, with:



Baltimore Orioles white diamond base Bird (NM+). The factory went a bit thin on the hair glaze on the back of the head, and there is very slight wear around the head opening. Beyond those nit-picking assessments, this is a magnificent piece, with raised jersey lettering, a team decal on the base, and a "Patent Pending Japan" stamp under the base.



Baltimore Orioles green diamond base Bird (NM-MT). Any issues are factory-related, mainly in the form of stray orange paint marks on the shoulders. Otherwise this one is even more attractive than his fraternal white base twin listed above, but with decals on the hat, jersey, and base, and an "SS Corp 1962 Made in Japan" stamp under the base.



Detroit Tigers white square base Tiger (EX-MT+) due to minute wear on the tips of the ears, and the head tilting slightly left. Otherwise very attractive, with raised logos on the jersey and hat, and a team decal on the front of the base.



Cincinnati Reds gold round base Mr. Red (EX-MT+) due to a faint hairline crack on the back of the head, and a fleck of color break on the jersey decal. There's a prominent glaze drip on the back of head, and some paint bubbling on the back of the left shoulder, which are factory firing flaws. The front presents more like NM-MT, and there's a "Sports Specialties" sticker under the base.



Cincinnati Reds green round base Mr. Red (NM). Little to squawk about here, other than a barely perceptible hairline surface crack extending a 1/4" into the red stitching on the left side of the head. Otherwise very attractive, with raised jersey lettering, and a team decal on the front of the base.



The size/weight of this item requires that there will be an additional shipping charge for this lot. Opening Bid $200.
