Thanks for asking.
I'm very proud to own several great game used items from Nolan's career:

-Game balls from 6 of his 7 no-hitters, as well as game balls from several key milestone games (19K game on 8/12/74, 4,000th K game, 3509th K game- passing Walter Johnson, 5,000th K game etc.)

-Nolan's glove from his record setting 1989 season in which he passed 5,000 career strikeouts, was the oldest winning pitcher in the All Star game & struck out 300 in a season for his record 6th time (Randy Johnson has since tied this record). Ryan game used gloves are really tough. I know of about 3 in the hobby that I believe to be real. This one came directly from Nolan, so the provenance is terrific.

-Nolan's final career win uniform (win # 324) jersey & pants

-Game used hats from the Angels, Astros & Rangers with incredible provenance
