Default Is Memorabilia on the decline?

Posted By: davidcycleback

The auction was probably about 6 years ago, and the winner bid was perhaps $3,500. My high bid was just over $3,000 I believe, and was outbid in the wee morning. The solid gold ring had Foxx's name & wedding details engraved inside, and came with a LOA the daughter.

I once owned Reggie Jackson's diamond All-Star game ring and was threatened by Reggie's lawyer as he claimed it was stolen (it wasn't). And I also was once similarly contacted by the Director of the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library over some Ronald Reagan items I owned, which he later agreed were not stolen. The Director of the Reagan Library came across as a nice enough guy, doing his job as legal protector of the Reagan legacy, but I didn't much of Jackson's lawyer.
