As Leon says, every thread needs an image...here's two...

My Game Used Jeter Rookie Bat, and Game Worn Jeter Jersey from his final season...both currently on loan & displayed in Yankee Stadium's Museum.

Michael,

You have some great game used pieces. Love this Jeter bat, and the other pounded Jeter bat you own!

Thanks Tony!

It's the same bat. The lighting in the above photo makes it hard to see the Mota Stick/Pine Tar and ball (and cleat) marks, etc.

Here's the same bat shot with better light:

True example of a players favorite bat, pounded with tremendous use. Love it!

It would be a great thing to have, as this is currently a real void in the hobby. I would frequent it multiple times per week.

It could command its own page, or could be added as a "Game-Used" sub-forum (adjacent to the "Autographs" sub-forum at the top of the Memorabilia page).

It might get lost or overlooked if relegated to just a sub-forum. I would love to see it have its own page with sub-categories for the following...

Bats
Uniforms
Caps/Helmets
Gloves
Jackets
Catchers Gear
Game-Used Cards
Tagging Database
BST
Etc.

The Tagging Database would be especially helpful to collectors who want to determine authenticity and/or dating of given items. The key would be to expand collector awareness and create enough "traffic" to warrant such a page. It might take some advertising and/or promotion to build the necessary awareness and excitement.

Hope it comes to fruition!

The more you guys post about this, the more excited I get. I agree , it’s been a real void in the hobby, and I believe many game used collectors have been waiting for something like this again.

Thanks so far, guys. I will be looking into how to do the sections. Keep the suggestions coming...

Like usual I am little to no help but would also love to see a game used section. I went from only collecting cards to adding bats a few years ago.
