There were a couple of interesting items, but not many. Two large, inscribed photos signed by Ted Williams were priced at $300 each. A multi-signed Joe D. Legends game jersey was also $300.
The trip wasn't a total washout. I did manage to snag a photo album with some team pictures, a bunch of player snapshots, and a few autographs, all for $30, but passed on everything else. My wife bought a small (but heavy) bookcase for a few bucks, so the trip was worthwhile for both of us. Just wish some of the good stuff from a 5-time All Star with a 17-year career would have been available.

Thanks for the recap.
