My Braves run, on a budget...

[ooo-ribay]

"your Braves, on a budget".....I thought you were talking on how they're currently being run.

A very good friend of mine, and fellow net54 member, is a huge Braves fan and has some great pieces. He is much more into autographs than memorabilia. I'm sure he wouldn't mind me showing off a couple of his pieces.

First, this is some of his 95 World Series balls. Each one is signed by a different player who is on the roster during the series. He is only lacking one more signature, Bobby Cox.

Next is one of my favorite pieces. It's a Braves pitching rubber signed by Smoltz, Glavine and Maddux. Each with their repective career wins and strikeout totals. I was with him when he finished it by getting Tom Glavine. Great piece and great memory.

Wow! Tell your friend I'm super jealous! Great stuff.

Ryan,

Looks like you have some great Braves items and I'm sure your man cave/office will be very cool. Always like to view rooms with cards and memorabilia displayed. Please post on the progress of the room; would love to see it! I've been working on my room/den as well, but it's more of a junk room currently; one day...

As I collect different things, I'll happily come here and post what I have gained. I hope you do the same.

Great stuff! Below are a couple of things I have framed from my Braves collection.

1957 Braves Scorecard signed by members of the 1957 World Series team (sadly no Aaron).



A framed scorecard autographed by Bobby Cox with the newspaper box score. A Maddux win with a Smoltz save! I think they sell these pretty cheap at the stadium now.
