Anyone Have Memorabilia Room Pictures to Share?

[Kawika]

Howard: There have been a few threads from time to time showcasing people's home displays. Unfortunately the search function doesn't laser in on all of them. I tried searches for "man cave" and "memorabilia room" and came up with a few. You'll need to be a bit creative to see what you can find; you'll probably stumble across a ton of interesting threads while you're looking. Getting there is half the fun.

Some of the threads are two or three years old so some of the picture links will have expired. I recall there being other threads - probably are plenty more - but you'll have to dig away. Maybe some of the other guys might come along and post photos of their awesome manly man caves in the mean time.

Howard, one thing to remember when you do put together your room...there is no right or wrong, just what pleases you. My room is still coming together with several things waiting to go to the framers. I will say though that the first link that David has there is one for Mike H. when he was re-doing his room and it inspired me quite a bit. I had never thought to do green walls before and I kept thinking about it for several months until we starting remodeling and I thought it was a great time to try it...and I'm very happy I did. Here's a couple of pictures of what I have so far.

Mike,
Your baseball room is looking awesome! I also like the like wainscoating at the bottom of the wall. Very smart looking with the green walls...

Mike -- that's a terrific room, the displays are very well done and I really like the color coordination. It's also nice to see the 7-11 cups -- I still have dozens from my childhood and I think they've always been under-appreciated.

What's going to go on the empty lighted wall above the cups?

Thanks for the compliments guys. The lighted area with nothing on the wall used to be a closet that we opened up and put track lighting in so that we can spot light stuff when it goes on the wall. I've actually already put up two large ball holder cases (one on each side on the smaller walls of the closet) and the back wall is reserved for 1927 Yankees (with hopefully a Ruth and Gehrig within the next 2 years) and the 1919 Blacksox. What I found, and I'm sure everyone finds this, is that wall space gets taken up pretty quickly. I have an adjoining bedroom that I use as my home office that I'm going to use for additional wall space as well as the hallway that leads in to them. Even with that additional space, there is no way to display everything I have once it get's framed, so I may just plan out stuff so that things can be swapped out at any given time. I also plan on using shelves, like a lot of people here do, to add some variety as well as being able to display multiple small items.

I'm new here. I dabble in a little bit of everything, vintage baseball cards, University of Notre Dame football, game worn hockey jerseys, all sorts of stuff. I find i can just sit back in my lazy boy in the man-room and relax for hours just looking at the walls. The room is covered with things my Dad and I collected over 25 years or so.

That's the best Hartland display and collection I have ever seen. Now I know who the Black Mickey Mantle went to in the auction a few years ago.
