What item(s) have you been waiting forever to surface?

[kingjammy24]

everyone's got their grails and in many cases the main barrier to them is simply cost. i'm curious about grails that people can easily afford yet can't seem to find. what affordable item(s) have people been waiting for years to surface?

me: 1989-1993 oakland a's terry steinbach jersey with (real) good use.
1989-1993 toronto blue jays john olerud jersey.

i don't know if i'll ever see any of those surface.

In terms of really affordable pieces on my want list, I'd go with a Jody Davis game worn catchers mitt. That is one piece I'd love to locate. Would prefer one from his days with the Cubs, but would settle for one from any era.

I grew up a Los Angeles Dodgers fan and my favorite player was Steve Garvey. I would love to find a 70's home gamer of the Garv.

A Bob Uecker game-used bat, ideally circa 1964.

Now what in the world would Uecker be doing with a baseball bat?

Re: What item(s) have you been waiting forever to surface?

A Shawn Moore jersey, ideally from UVa, but I'd settle for anything at this point, whether it was from his time with the Broncos, the WLAF, or the CFL. I'd even settle for the jersey from his 1998 stint with the Baltimore Cowboys of the Professional Flag Football League.
