If you include items like cabinet photos, uniforms, and bats as "memorabilia" then I'd say it's not all that light....however it's not as exciting on the memorabilia side as it has been in the past. It could also be that we're starting to see most of what's available (dreadful to think, but are we topping out on memorabilia?) and we're not seeing anything that's new to us so we don't get as excited.... ie recycled stuff from other auction houses like the Deacon White stuff. Now that stuff was quite exciting when it first appeared in Hunt's, and I'd still love to have it, but did you gloss right over it while scrolling through the auction because you already have seen it before?

I honestly think there is nothing cooler in this auction than the Cracker Jack sign - which I consider to be memorabilia - if I were a gozillionaire it would be mine. Yes it would.
