Roundup: Let's Play Ball!

Baseball games have been a constant at our house this year, from attending home Giants games to watching them on TV and listening to them on the radio.

Baseball games have been a constant at our house this year, from attending home Giants games to watching them on TV and listening to them on the radio. If your household has a similar preoccupation, celebrate your love for the game by adding some vintage baseball poster art to your walls.

My current favorite is the darling Saturday Evening Post cover (middle row, middle poster) from Aug. 10, 1940. Painted by Douglass. Contact the Julia Santen Gallery for pricing information.

Head to eBay to pick up this Signed Newark Eagles vs. NY Cubans Poster ($274). This replica game-day poster has been signed by 51 players. The poster itself was produced on cardboard as an advertisement and comes with a detailed letter of authenticity.

For something a little more whimsical, you can pick up Rabid Charlie Racater of the Detroit Wolverines ($13, top right). According to the artist, "During his day, Charlie Racater was one of the more popular players in the National League, despite his unfortunate nickname.
He played second base for the Wolverines from 1883-89."

Giving Vintage Posters a Shot

I've never been a big fan of vintage advertising posters — particularly the reproductions.

I've never been a big fan of vintage advertising posters — particularly the reproductions. But after coming across this adorable kitchen corner, I realized maybe it's not so much the poster I have a problem with but the way they're displayed. The sprightly yellow paint and striped and botanical textiles pull out all of the colors from the poster in a sweet and peppy fashion. The scale of the poster is also just right for this corner and gives the room height. Plus, the vintage cakestand, pitcher, and glassware on the table chime into the retro look of Les Cycles Alcyon.

I thought I'd round up a few more vintage posters for y'all, in case you're also liking the look!

Every year, my family always gives me a new calendar to adorn my walls. This year they surprised me with one made from my own photographs, however I would've been just as happy with one of the many foodie-friendly calendars out there. I love the Play with your Food calendar, as well as Salut! — a weekly planner that features vintage wine posters. Also, who could look past this daily cupcake calendar? You can have a new treat every day or every month, you decide! There are a lot of great photos to choose from, as well as some fantastic vintage ads. I've picked out a few of my favorites, you can see them by scrolling through the list below.
