I'VE GOT A LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH YOU PEOPLE...

/squealing at that image/ JimH5, where did you get that image?

 

For you Festivus fans, click here if you'd like to know how the Wisconsin Historical Society has preserved the tradition of the Festivus pole.

Is that from one of the old school 70's Christmas Cards that the club sent to season ticket holders? Very cool.

[JimH5]

It is indeed on an actual Christmas card.

 

I bought it a few years ago, and I honestly can't remember from where. . .maybe MEARS, maybe eBay, maybe the National or one of the memorabilia shows out east, or a different auction house. I don't remember the price. . .under $50 for sure. Maybe $20. . .

 

I wasn't aware of the actual date, so I'll go with RockCoCougars and say it's from the 1970s.

 

There isn't a date on the card, and it didn't come with an envelope.

Inside it's printed with a holiday greeting from the Milwaukee Brewers Baseball Club and it was signed in what looks like a felt tip pen by someone whose name is unfamiliar to me.

 

I loved the image and have been meaning to post it the past couple of Christmases, so I finally got off my butt last night and figured out how to post scans on here.

 

Glad you liked it. . .

Cool. I've seem similar cards before, but not this particular one. Based on the logo, it has to be '77 or before.

Happy Holidays, indeed!

 

The wife and I will be heading to the Vegas airport in a few hours to catch our red-eye back to God's Country. Looking forward to seeing family and friends and going to the Packer game!

 

Merry Christmas everybody!

And I thought I'd be the first to post a Happy Holidays to all. This is great. BrewerFan is the best. Good Wishes to you all

I piqued my own curiosity on this item and found that I bought it from a Maryland ebay seller in September of '09 for $6.00 plus $2.25 shipping.

 

Quite a bit cheaper than I thought, which makes me happy. And then to top it off, I got a 2011 holiday card from the Brewers in today's mail.

Is that the EDR-spawn actually, knowingly going Beast Mode?

[EdgarDiazRocks]

I don't know about "knowingly", but she DOES love that hat.
