I got a Tom Seaver autographed ball as a gift from my mother that I've always known had to be fake; sold by some pseudo reputable dealer.
I never said a word and I always liked it more than the real thing because it was from my mom. It will always sit proudly among my Mets memorabilia.
Also, my Mom was a massive Willie Mays fan from his NY days. My brother and I got a picture signed for her at a card show in about 1981. That photo is a very nice keepsake for me too.
I know this post isn't about cards, but I also value my 1973 PSA 5 (MC) Roberto Clemente procured in one of the hundreds of packs I bought at the age of seven. I think the '73 is a truly great card, but I don't think I'll ever consider getting another one.

Thanks for the topic.

Andy

Good idea for a thread.

I am a Met fan and Mantle was OK but I never idolized him as others did. BUT...my user name on eBay since 1997 has been sportmags so I think that this item is really cool. I have no idea of the value but have never seen another one anywhere.

Not the best condition but being a Mantle fan I had to have it. Found this at a flea market a few years back for $2.00.

I'm a diehard Mets fan, but (unlike most New Yorkers) I actually rooted big time for the Yankees, too. And Reggie was the frickin' man!!! I sent a couple of Reggie bar wrappers (just the square orange portion of them) to him at Yankee stadium in the late 70's - early 80's and he signed them for me. It's not a great looking signature, because it's written on a waxy surface, but I love it!!!!

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

Al,

Is there anything you DON'T have?

I also love the stories from everyone, and the lunch box brought back a flood of childhood memories.
