(For players like Ruth, Koufax, Mantle etc, you can see many of the items are now labeled as not being from their MLB playing days as this has been the direction things have moved. This won't put the cut up pieces back together, but I believe that that era has passed.)


You are right ! Especially in football. Where they use cheap "event worn" or "player used" pieces. One of the main reasons I moved over here to vintage.
