Hi
I bet someone made a post about this already. But i'll ask it again. What item would you buy that you cant afford right now or maybe ever. If i had the money i would want to buy a game worn jersey by Lou Gehrig. For some reason i just love him and love everything about him even though he died 49 years before i was born. I cant wait to see what some of you write.

Its hard to pick one, but off the top of my head, i'd like a uniform worn by Christy Mathewson. The older ones with the big "N.Y" on it. A Ty Cobb uniform he wore around 1910-ish would be neat too !

Decidedly non-baseball, but I'd pick the Vogue magazine photo archives.

Foxx's 1938 MVP Trophy. I'd sacrifice a body part for it. And I don't care which part.

The card was in the Halper Collection and sold in 1999. To my knowledge, the only 1933/4 Goudey # 106 autographed and dated by Nap Lajoie, i would send it to JSA/SGC to holder it.

I would really dig picking up the T206 Eddie Collins proof of the pose that never made it into the set.



A presentable Wagner would be nice too!

Honus Wagner Novelty Cutlery, or PC796 Sepia postcard. That doesn't sound too impossible, I think.

My great great grandfather was Silver King and I will forever be searching for two of his items. 1st was a pocketwatch he received from Von Der Ah back in 1887, the last known whereabouts of the pocketwatch was a jeweler by the last name of Gradwohl in St. Louis back in 1943. It has the inscription Charley King. 2nd, a large photo of Silver King that sat above his fireplace. My grandmother, who was Silver Kings granddaughter, told me the picture was beautiful (she used to live with him). I tried contacting relatives but nobody has seen it for 50 years. I really wanted to show either one of these items to my grandmother, but she passed away last month and I never found the items. I did find some great cards and photos that she had never seen her entire life.

maybe not number 1 on my list but i wouldnt mind owning the 1922 18-karat gold gentleman's wristwatch, produced by Patek Phillippe, which sold for $1,918,387 at Antiquorum Auctioneers, Geneva, Switzerland, on Nov. 14, 1999. Which is the record for a wrist watch by the way, wow.

Hank Aaron's 715th home run ball that was caught in the bullpen by Braves pitcher Tom House and given back to Aaron.

I think Hank still has it.

I wonder how much it sold for on eBay?

an on-topic item I would like to have is Ruth's "called shot" home run ball. The ball went clear out of the stadium.
