    Clean Sweep: The Sweet Spot for Auctions The sports memorabilia business seems to have an auction literally every day, not to mention ebay. Some auctions are telephone book size catalogs with multiple examples of the same item (thus negatively affecting prices) while others are internet-only auctions that run for a short time and have only been in business for a relatively short time (5 years or less). Clean Sweep Auctions is the sweet spot of sports auction companies. We have been in business for over 20 years and have one of the deepest and best mailing lists of any auction house. Do not think for a second that a printed catalog in addition to a full fledged website will not result in higher prices for your prized collection. Clean Sweep has extensive, virtually unmatched experience in working with all higher quality vintage cards, autographs and memorabilia from all of the major sports. Our catalogs are noted for their extremely accurate descriptions, great pictures and easy to read layout, including a table of contents. Our battle tested website is the best in the business, combining great functionality with ease of use. Clean Sweep will not put your cherished collection in random or overly large lots, killing the potential to get a top price. We can spread out your collection over different types of auctions, maximizing prices. We work harder and smarter than anyone in the business to bring top dollar for your collection at auction. Clean Sweep is extremely well capitalized, with large interest-free cash advances available at any time.

I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets.

  • "Red" Faber (Chicago AL
    URBAN CLARENCE “RED” FABER RIGHT-HANDED PITCHER 1914-33 By Brian Cooper Cooper is the author of “Red Faber: A Biography of the Hall of Fame Spitball Pitcher,” published by McFarland & Co. in 2007. He is executive editor of the Telegraph Herald, a daily newspaper published in Dubuque, Iowa. The following article discusses Faber’s minor league career in Iowa. © 2007, Society for American Baseball Research 1 Before starting a major-league career that would earn him a place in the National Baseball Hall of Fame Urban Clarence "Red" Faber (Chicago AL, 1914-33) pitched four of his five minor-league seasons in his native Iowa. Faber was born to parents of Luxembourg descent on Sept. 6, 1888, on a farm outside the small northeast Iowa town of Cascade, in Dubuque County. Within a few years, the family lived in downtown Cascade, where his parents, Nicholas and Margaret, owned and operated the Hotel Faber. The earliest record of Urban Faber playing baseball is 1903, when the 14-year-old appears in the team photo of Sacred Heart Academy (Prairie du Chien, Wis.). After two years at Sacred Heart, the red-haired Faber transferred to the prep academy of St. Joseph’s College (now Loras College) in Dubuque, about 20 miles east of Cascade. About that time, the Faber family moved from Cascade to Dubuque, where they lived off Nicholas’ investments and real estate holdings. Urban played baseball at least one season (1906) at St. Joseph’s. He also pitched for the Tigers, a leading semi- pro team in Dubuque, and other squads at a rate of $2 to $5 a game.
