    What is your #1 favorite thing in your entire collection?

    What is your #1 favorite thing in your entire collection? Doesn't have to be game used.

    This is my favorite piece. 1994 Original Picture of Alex Rodriguez signing an American League Baseball, which I own.

    What's cool about this picture. Arod is wearing his High School Nike Jacket. Wearing his High School Championship Ring. And the woman in the background is Arod's sister Suzy. ORIGINAL PHOTOGRAPH!

    My favorite piece!
    Regards, Tony

            Touch choice. Since we get two, I will show my two but number two is a toss up between two items:

            1. Arod Spring Training jersey from 1995:

            2. Toss up between a 1971 Angels Flannel jersey (Jim Spencer) or a 1961 - 1964 Albie Pearson GU Angels cap:

                  Tony, not really sure what year exactly. It was a gift from the parents when I graduated undergrad. Seems to have a little red tint in the tape, so I would guess from his Reds years.

                    Adam, it's a pretty cool bat.

                      My 1996 Willie McGee Rawlings gamer - No question. It might not be the most valuable item in my collection, but it makes me smile every time I look at it. Unless you lived in STL when he played - you might not understand the fascination with Wille...but he is more revered in this town than certain hall of famers (rhymes with Fozzy). When he retured to the Cards after his tour of California (Oak, SF), he recieved a HUGE ovation every time he came to the plate.

                      I had this one signed a couple of years ago. Willie looked at it, touched the handle (where it's grooved), and smiled..'It's one of mine'. Willie is known for using LS C271's, so this is not really a common bat either. Show plenty of 'switch hitting use' too.Thanks Jeff!

                          i would have to go with my jackie robinson signed ball or my clemente signed ball. i would have to get rid of all my arod cuz it would be sad if i was left with one of his items. might as well get rid of all of it. both authenticated by some signature expert from honabach.
