Default My "restorations"

I'm kind of a low end collector. I have a ton of NY and SF Giants stuff, but most of it is not overly valuable. I'm not opposed to "improving" something I buy. Don't worry "purists," my collection is for my enjoyment only and will never be sold.

Here's some stuff I've "restored," changed or improved. A Braves Blatz display, changed to be a Giants piece. A dyed pennant. A bleached pennant. A generic Champs bobber made into a Giants bobber. A repaired mini bobber. Bobby Bonds' travel suitcase. A Quinco bank, changed into a Utah Utes piece. A severely cracked Madison Bumgarner gamer. I'm sure I have more stuff I've messed with. Anyone else do this kind of sacrilege?
