Default Favorite Tigers artifacts

GREAT thread!
Here are some of my faves:

- Denny McLain game used ball from Denny McLain's 31st and final win in 1968

- Game used and signed Virgil Trucks bat. "Fire" Trucks threw 2 no-hitters in 1952 for the DET Tigers.
One of only 6 MLB pitchers to ever accomplish this feat


- Framed Virgil Trucks piece that contains action photos, a ticket from his MLB debut game and 1st career win

- Future HOF Justin Verlander early game used and inscribed bat from his Detroit Tigers era. Manufacturing date is one week before his 1st of 3 career no-hitters

- Aerial photo and picture of my wife and me at the final game at Old Tiger Stadium on 9/27/1999
