Who ever you are...PLEASE post the Gehrig signed ticket!

Just think how many scrapbooks are out there with the ticket glued in it and the people not knowing what it's worth.

Wow...if they're going for that much, I'd say I'll have to pass on it due to the number of things I could add to my collection for that amount of money.
Maybe someday.

No, it's not mine, but I was the underbidder on it in Verkman's auction. It did skyrocket, but more so for the fact it's the only know example actually signed by Gehrig. Given that I collect autographed Yankee stubs along with vintage gloves, I had to make a play for it. Unfortunately, I was up against someone with much deeper pockets.

Man..I'll tell you..22 k sounds like a bunch but I doubt there is another one of these..heck maybe not another one EVER(INCLUDING THAT DAY). If I had a couple months to unload some stuff to hit the 22k mark or had the cash(if it was available)..I would do it. Thanks for sharing.
It is truly a Musium piece.

The postman's arrival today made an otherwise crummy day, great!
