10,000 to spend at national what would you buy

Find a nice, graded Gehrig exhibit (not a 25 or 26, of course). 4 on 1 is fine.

Find a nice, graded Plank (E95 or M116, preferably)

Finish my T206 want list, which includes all 4 Cobbs, 2 WaJos, 2 Mattys, etc, all in a presentable low grade.

Finish my T205 want list (Joss, Young, Speaker, Cobb, WaJo, etc)

Anything left over can go towards my Diamond Stars or Goudey 4 in 1 master sets, as well as towards my 41 Play Ball set and the rest of the 33 and 34 Goudey HOFers that I'm still missing (that includes Ruths and Gehrigs)

Also need to find the rest of the 48 Leafs that I want (DiMaggio, Ruth, Musial, Rizzuto, Boudreau, etc).

Hmmm, I don't think 10k will cut it lol

If I could find a nice looking low grade CJ Jackson for that I'd be pretty happy.

I can't pick just one. A few cards that come to mind...

E90-1 Joe Jackson
1952 Topps Mantle
Nice E107 HOFer

Card wise, I'd look into a Ruth, Jackie Robinson, early Mantle, Shoeless Joe.... see what I could find but I'd also really hope to get some old stadium pieces; maybe an Ebbets seat, possibly Fenway (wood of course), also see if I could find old ticket price signs. I enjoy relics from the past that can be incorporated as décor.

Would love to see how you are using relics as decor currently... sounds awesome. I have always dreamed of a room with seats from different stadiums. Have friends over to watch a World Series or All Star game and can pick where they want to sit!

Currently it's old wood seats, framed programs and pennants. I have vintage small articles displayed in cases, B/W photos, some older color photos, many signed, a couple baseball lithographs. Some re-pop tin signs ( it's too hard and costly to find originals). Some of the stuff is displayed on a brick wall that replicates Wrigley's outfield brick without the ivy.
