Here's a couple pics of mine. Needs some restoring (It has one crack on the side, needs new wiring and chain, made out of plastic and has yellowing on one side of it probably from smoke or age) and I hope to do so one day soon and put it over DM Table. But I have been saying that for almost a year now. These lamps are out there just extremely hard to find.

Do you have DM men.. I mean the old men that looks like the body is covered in porcelain or something similar? Do you know what I mean? Also looking for some outside bearings & 2 ashtrays for the DM. Might be willing to work out a deal/trade.

Got your message speeddemon and tried to reply but your mailbox is full. I got my DM for 150.00 from a guy whose dad had in his garage for the past 20 years, pretty good shape. I just want all the same men and need one outside bearing and 2 ashtrays. I will keep looking. Was hoping you had some to trade for the lamp. Good luck to you.


PS: I almost have two full sets of men. I wanted to complete my second set.

Carrie Crowell has at least three EXTREMELY rare Tournament Soccer tour posters on eBay right now -- if I remember right, the auctions end in the next day or two.  The bids were getting pretty high on those last time I checked.   

Other than that, I have an extensive collection of memorabilia, but not a lot of duplicates anymore (I've traded, sold or thrown away [ouch] a lot of my extras).  I do have ORIGINAL print copies of The Complete Book of Foosball from 1980 (not the reprints found on eBay and Amazon).  Mine are in very good condition, and also have personalized autographs by the authors (Johnny Lott and Kathy Brainard).  Side note: I contibuted to the editing of this book -- as did about 20 or more other players, none of whom got any credit/mention for their help...  Anyway, from time to time I've been auctioning these with a starting price of about $75.00 each, and I donate the proceeds to USTSF.  If you are a true T.S. era collector and genuinely interested you can skip waiting for me to run the auctions and just buy one direct from me.  Just let me know. 

As far as what else I have, I'd really have to dig back into the storage cases/boxes.  Whenever that happens, I'll let you know. 

There are three others I'm aware of with good collections of TS era memorabilia each of which has enough extras to spare: Johnny Lott, Brendan Flaherty, and Marshall Kohtz of Nebraska (not sure if I got the spelling on his last name right).  All monitor these forums from time to time... 

Hope that helps!!

Mr. Steve, 

Which belt buckle to you have -- I have three different ones but they made at least two more versions than that... I'd also be interested if it's one I don't have.

Regards, Larry D.

Travis, 

I'm REALLY sorry I haven't been more attentive to this.  (Someone else was asking me about TS belt buckles a couple months ago and I haven't got back to them either!)  I have the books relatively handy now.  Let me know how you'd like to arrange things going forward as far as payment/shipping address, etc.  Since I've been truly delinquent, I'll see what else in the way of T.S. or Tornado collectibles I might have that I can throw in, and I'll let you know if I have anything more from the 70s and 80s that I may be able to sell or trade.

Take care, Larry D.
