Triplets anyone?? Koufax is not my favorite, but had to post mine after the first two.
1966 Topps Sandy Koufax signed.jpg


My favorite item is no doubt the signed ball my dad got while watching a 19 year old shortstop Mickey Mantle and his Joplin team face my Dad's hometown Enid Giants. I think year was 1950, and the Mick hit about .380 and think made about 50-60 errors. It's a multisigned balled with a combination of players from both teams and the young Mick's sig in the sweet spot (where else since he was was OK legend already.. and pre the loopy M's, more in line with the facsimile on his '51 Bowman). My dad recently handed this piece down to me and I wouldn't sell for $500K. My hope is that it will be handed down as many generation as possible. I'll post a pic next time I visit my safe deposit box.
