With the baseball season now officially started, at least in Baltimore, I thought I would post this timely TBird collectible. I acquired this from someone who was selling his '05 retro and related memorabilia a few years ago. I have never seen another one. It was part of a promotion by Ford recognizing the 100th anniversary of the Ford Motor Co in 2003. It appears that there were 4000 given away at an Orioles game. Not all were TBirds. Other vehicles depicted included Mustangs, Taurus, F-150, Explorer, Focus, etc., from what I understand. My guess is that they can be found, with the best option likely sports memorabilia collectors. I have a friend who is a sports memorabilia dealer and collector who had never seen one when I showed it to him.

I checked ebay and there was a vendor selling the Mustang and Model T/GT versions. I contacted him about the TBird - he said he had just sold the one he had. I bought the other two anyway. Ironically, the vendor is located only a short drive from my house. That close all along - go figure!
