Anyone watch this today?

Pawn Stars Brooklyn Dodgers bench?

Guy says he was commissioned to build it/drill holes through the bats and balls:eek: but what really caught my eye were the Ebbets and Jackie pics/autos.

Those alone have to be worth thousands, wouldn't they?

I believe, Rick, after the TPG was there, offered the guy $2,000?

Ya that was a great bench. It was definitely worth thousands. He had all the main stars autographs and some original photos and tons of cards. Rick low balled the shit outta him. But it was a customized piece

The guy/builder wanted $60,000 but would have settled for a reasonable offer I assume?

I was wondering what that Ebbetts pic/auto alone would sell for as it (supposedly?) is one of only two in existence?

I am also assuming that Jackie pic/auto would sell for large money too?

It was painful when he showed the bolts through the bats and balls, especially the Snider, but like he said, he was commissioned to build it like that, or so he says?
