Experiment II: Post a memorabilia piece here you are wiling to sell for $500

[bobfreedman]

Following suit form the card side, list a memorabilia piece that you would be willing to sell for $500 (not including shipping). This is not meant to be a dumping ground for pieces you don't want and are not worth $500 but a fun experiment.

I will start it all off with this D&M Baseball Trophy, it is 12" tall:

1908 Trophy

Sold!! Walter Johnson Uniform Swatch page, Gorgeously framed to 22"x22" (swatch page is actually 18"x18"), $500 + actual shipping

[packs]

I saw the word willing and thought this was a theoretical thread, as in I would be willing to sell this if it were for sale. Taking my item out just to avoid any confusion.

Jackie Robinson 3 1/4 x 4 1/4 glass plate negative. The uniform dates the photo to 1948 or 1949, but he is wearing a first baseman's mitt, so it is likely 1948 as he didn't play first in 1949. I have not been able to identify the stadium he is in. There is a notation 51B, but I have no idea what it stands for. It isn't the year 1951 as the uniform was different. The main uniform difference is where the "g" in Dodgers lines up. After 1949, the g was either on or to the left of the left vertical stripe. Only in 1948 and 1949 did the g line up exactly with the buttons. I confirmed this with Marc Okkonen's Dressed to the Nines exhibit on the BB HOF's website.
The overall condition of the negative is fantastic outside of a small linear scratch to the emulsion side. It is approx 1cm long. You can see the effect in the photo to the left of his left shoulder. The blemish really doesn't impact the quality of the image produced.
$500 for this second year Robinson negative. Shipping included.

1982 Uncut Mickey Mantle Story sheet. Signed by Mantle. Comes unframed.

This was the description in the auction when I bought it, but I do not have any documentation proving it:

"This came from mantles agent and it was said that they only produced 125 uncut sheets and that mantle only autographed 7."

It comes with an SGC guarantee.

SOLD Beautiful rookie era (1939-1941) Ted Williams signed original Burke photo. If this was in better condition it would sell for thousands, but central image and autograph remain superb and displays great.

Remnants of it being removed from a scrapbook on reverse along with original George Burke stamp. I would take $500 including shipping. SOLD

Your choice! Any of the following autographs can be had for $500 (net to me) plus actual shipping.

#1) Beautiful Satchel Paige autographed 8x10 Photo plus PSA/DNA Letter

#2) Mantle/DiMaggio autograph 8x10 Photo. This was obtained from a well respected board member who obtained both autographs in-person. Guaranteed to pass any authentication service of your choice or your money back.

#3) Chic Gandil signed index card. Absolutely bold signature, and guaranteed to pass any authentication service of your choice or your money back.

#4) Tony Lazzeri (also including Brown, Jorgens and DeShong) signed album page. Beautiful signature and guaranteed to pass any authentication service of your choice or your money back.

#5) Duke Maas signed 1960 Topps. Beautiful ballpoint signature. Originally sold by Kevin Keating (I was not the original purchaser) and used to have a standard COA from him that I received when I purchased the card, but I can't seem to find it anywhere at the moment. Nevertheless, guaranteed to pass any authentication service of your choice or your money back.

Bought these on impulse last year and they do not fit in my collection. I am a card guy. I am not sure of the authenticity, they do come with a letter, but the letter is from the 80's. I thought I could post here and someone could verify. Second I have no idea what they are worth and do not want to pay the PSA fees. So regardless if it is a good deal for someone I will let go for $500. If they are fake or not worth it let me know.

Although you stated you don't know if they are fake I would prefer this kind of stuff (not known about) not be in one of these threads. I was afraid people would start dumping things. I just don't think that is the spirit.....and that will be a problem with any of these threads and something we will address if we continue them, at least as much as possible.

Got it, makes sense
