J. Paul Sports
Promotions is the outgrowth of an auction business founded by
Jeff and Elvira Stogner in 1976. The business gradually became totally
sports related, and J.Paul Sports Promotions was incorporated
in 1990. As president and vice-president of J.Paul Sports, Jeff
and Elvira are involved in every aspect of the business. Jeff has
more than 50 years of experience with sports autographs as a collector,
dealer, and show promoter. Over the years, the company has hired
more than 100 Hall of Famers to sign autographs privately and at
his shows, but they are probably best known for their reunion shows
at which 25-30 players (some quite obscure) from the same team/era
attend the show to sign autographs for the public. The most notable
reunions were the 1960 World Champion Pirates in 1990, 2000 and
2010, the 1971 World Champion Pirates in 1991 and 2011, the Giants
of the Polo Grounds in 1991, the Senators of Griffith Stadium in
1995, the Orioles of the 1950's in 1996, the Yankees of the 1950's
in 1998, the 1979 World Champion Pirates in 1999, and the Steelers
of the 1950's in 2003.
In 2013 after selling the Pittsburgh sportscard convention, Jeff
& Elvira (Lizzy) Stogner had some time on their hands and decided
to join forces with their long time photo provider to offer other
8x10 photos and collectibles to their customers. They currently
offer celebrity TV & movie star, pop singer, historical, sports
related and burlesque queen 8x10 photos. Having owned and operated
North Shore Auctions, Ltd. in Port Washington, NY from 1976-1983,
Elvira & Jeff have accumulated a family compound full of antiques
and collectibles which they are currently selling on the same site
