Thanks, I have been super lucky long term. I have made countless buy/sell/trade deals over the last 3+ decades and have only really got screwed once. BLEEB Kruk Cards. Had a ton of small things happen but for the most part they all worked out in the end.

I found this beauty on eBay recently, and I was surprised no one else placed a bid on it. It's a mini bat signed in fountain pen by the 1934 Boston Braves.

That's great Chris. Congrats!

Was lucky enough to pic up an Adirondack 1968-70 game used Bob Gibson bat...tons of use...needs some love but hopefully will take care of it in the near future.

I believe this is a pretty rare bat considering being a pitcher not to mention that he was MVP 2 of these 3 years....faded 45 on the knob end of an 82 A model bat...35 inches...33.4 oz.

Great bat!

I just picked up a pocket sked from a fellow collector. He added a John Pregenzer Fan Club card. John was with the Giants in 1963 and 1964. That was his entire MLB career. He pitched 27.1 innings and retired with a 2-0 record. The guy who sent me the fan club card also emailed some other stuff related to the club.

Great stuff guys. I love that Rice bat, and the Gibson.

It is ironic that I would see a Rice bat this month, because I just sold my Rice bat to pay for this SWEET pickup. I hated to do it, but there was no way I was passing this one by.

A pro model Willie Mays has been on my want list for a looooonnng time, but I just never had the opportunity.
I am stoked to have it.

Not sure anyone cares, but besides Pete Rozelle, other club members included Norman Mailer, Pierre Salinger, Helen Gurley Brown and Pirates GM Joe Brown. Dues were one dollar.
