What do you collect?

Posted By: Michael Campbell

I pretty much stick to Jimmie Foxx items. Anything to do with him. As far as I can determine, I am only missing one publication where he appeared on the cover. But we all know how that goes.....another will pop up somewhere. I have only four more cards to go and I will have what I believe to be the vast majority of them. Graded appropriately to suit the rareness. Another words, a PSA grade 8 Diamond Star, but yet a grade 4 Buttercream is acceptable.etc. etc. I am missing only one pin. I believe. I have about 50 original photos and wire photos. That search will never end. I have four of his autographs, including a letter he wrote to a fan. I also like Buck Weaver and Hack Wilson. Some Mantle. Some Gehrig. I own his personal health club pass, that came out of the Gehrig family auction of 2000. So...the beat goes on. I have the collection malady. Glad there is no cure.
