Default What Is On Your Dream List?

Posted By: Dan Bretta

List them all and maybe tell us why these items are on your "Dream List"...how attainable do you think they are?

-Nebraska Indians Baseball Uniform: I don't think this is very attainable unless I can find a family member who has something...I have only conversed with one person whose great grandfather played for the NI and the family only had one cabinet photo. Apparently he never talked about his time with the NI with anyone in the family and it was a great mystery to them. Less than 1% chance in my lifetime.

-1950s Lincoln Chiefs uniform: This one I think is attainable...I just haven't run into the right person yet...I would put a Lincoln Athletics uniform in this category too, but from my understanding there is no difference in the uniforms of the Lincoln A's and the Philadelphia A's of the same time period...and that all of those uniforms in the Connie Mack owned minor league system were interchangeable. 50% chance.

-Snapshot photo of Babe Ruth in a Red Sox uniform: This one is clearly attainable, but I just have to pony up the cash for it and it would have to be a crystal clear image. 99% chance.

-Babe Ruth Autographed Baseball: Another one that is clearly attainable but I don't know that I'll ever spend that kind of money on a piece of memorabilia...I would definitely love to have one as I think it is the pinnacle item in any collection regardless of it's commonality. 10% chance.
