What would you choose?

[Rob D.]

Because it's easy for me to arrive at a No.1 choice, and because everything else in my collection runs a distant, distant second, I'd be taking my 1948 Indians World Series ring and nothing else. Sorry for the poor photo.

Mike this is a very hard question indeed!
I dont show this very often:
1) My Munson 1977 Set 1 Home Jersey
2) My 1956 Signed Dodger year book
3)My 61 in 61 set of pins (I cheated a little multiple pins)
oops forgot the pics

Graig, you might appreciate this. It's the original artwork for the 1948 ring from the Balfour archives.

GREAT piece, Rob. Isn't this the second ring that Balfour handled? I seem to remember the first being for the '46 Cards? That's just friggin' awesome.

Is it safe to say that you're a big Cleveland fan?

First off, I absolutely concur with Graig.

And being a collector that lives for companion pieces, I must say that your original painting as a companion piece for your incredible ring is far and away the best tandem that I've yet to see! Well done Rob, well done.

Now Al. You once told me that other than pins, TYPE I photos were what you loved to collect.

You forgot to mention that you were sitting on things like a THURMAN MUNSON GAME USED JERSEY and certainly the finest SIGNED DODGER PROGRAM I have ever seen!

What else you got in that vault, Al?

[batsballsbases]

Thanks Jimmy,
Well I might have a few more items up my sleeve from time to time.
I have always loved that dodger yearbook. The hard part about it is the cover has 14 sigs I had the book framed, with Jackie Robinson who signed thru the bums coat Hard to see). But the inside has 18 beautiful sigs with a walter alston,gil hodges,and a pre accident Roy Campanella and just about any of the other dodgers you can think of. But you always have to take it out of the frame to look at it. Here is the Campy And Remember Mike only told us we could only take 3!

Yeah. Mike is on my SH*T list for limiting us to three pieces

[batsballsbases]

That Damn Mike! Goes out and gets a spalding trophy then sets limits on the rest of us. And plus he spelled buried wrong! Lucky for him Barry doesnt like to visit from the card side And for the record I also wanted to say Your Lou Gehrig card and Davids BALLS are the best I have ever seen!! Always a pleasure to see all the nice items the other guys have!
