Johnny Bench game used/issued 1975 all-star bat. B278 35.5 inches. Dave Grob letter.
Bob Bailey 1976 Reds Bicentennial bat. Paid too much for it, but you never see these.
I also thought I got a great deal on a 76 Morgan Bicentennial bat but when it arrived it was a team index bat. Suck!

Picked up this 70's - 80's era Gator jersey, my first orange jersey. Haven't pinpointed the year yet. This one has spandex sides, which I haven't been able to style match yet. Any help would be appreciated.

Picked up this '86 Padre game used Eric Show jersey. I'm going to get this framed along side my Rose 1978 game used jersey. Thought they would look cool side by side together.

I haven't been able to photo match the Show jersey, maybe someone can lend me a hand.

The '86 Topps card looks close. The Padres matchs the pin stripes, but the RAK doesn't seem to line up. Can't get a good enough pic from his '86 and '87 Fleer card. The photos on ebay are too small and I don't own either card.

I just received these bats yesterday and it's already a good start to the new year. The first bats is a cracked Harvey Kuenn model O16 from 1960-1964 when he played for the Giants. The other bat is a cracked Robin Yount bat from 1977-1979. Both bats show great game use to them. This Yount bats has been my Great White Whale for some time now. The only reason I bought the Kuenn bat is because he was the manager of the 1982 American League Championship team the Milwuakee Brewers.

Greg, Abe, Mike - Thanks a lot guys. It was pure luck the way I found this jersey. I am super pumped about this being my first Justice jersey with his name on the back. The fact that it's a #33 shirt makes it pretty rare too since out of his 14 year career, he only wore 33 for about 5 months.

Ruppert Jones LVS (most likely used by Gary Pettis) and has a repaired handle crack. I knew when I purchased it that it was most likely Jones issued and used by someone else as Jones has never worn #24. I am terrible at dating bats, but I think it is from his time with the Angels (85-87). In 1985, Rufino Linares wore #24 and played 18 games and had 43 ABs. In 1986 and 1987, Gary Pettis wore #24 and played in close to 300 games and had over 900 ABs. So, the probability that Pettis used the bat is much higher.

Wade Boggs signed game used bat. The pine tar is light for a boggs gamer but the pattern is consistent for one. There is a light coat near the center brand and light transfer on the lower handle. there is a good and concentrated contact pattern below the labeling on a left hand hitters side, and there is also good and concentrated contact pattern above the the labeling, which is a little odd. But the way the patterns are so concentrated in one area, they could only be done by a great hitter like boggs. On the knob there is 12 written in Boggs typical style for that time period. All and all I think a very nice gamer with moderate use from a HOF.

Picked up a pretty sweet Manny Ramirez autographed Beckett magazine from Nov '93 with JSA authentication. The signature is a very crisp early Manny full name (signed "Manuel").

Also unique to Manny's career, it's a nice shot from one of the 22 games he played in late 1993 his first time up in the bigs and shows the construction of the new ballpark in the background.

I got out my April '93 manufactured batting helmet and think I may have a shot at a match. There's a very noticeable chip on the brim of the helmet that looks to match up with the helmet Manny is wearing in the photo. Of course I'm not 100% sure but it makes me feel even better about having a legit rookie helmet.

I'd say you should feel very comfortable with that being a legit helmet...looks like it is in the same spot and can't imagine the chances of having a sizeable chip in the brim in the exact spot on two different helmets!

In regards to the Ken Griffey Jr. "gamer", I would say the tape job is off too. Looks like an attempt to match it, but the tape width looks off. Too much bat exposed between the tape crossings. Does not look like Jr. prepped this bat.

Just my opinion, I would recommend the winner look into this, as there are now two members "concerned".....

Picked up this Butler broken on 9/11/09. See photomatch to game on 9/9/2009 under thread, http://www.gameuseduniverse.com/vb_forum/showthread.php?t=32324

Since the photomatch, I have found a few more interesting tid bits. In the game on 9/9/2009, Butler hit 3 doubles, becoming the first player since before 1900, to have 4 3-double games in a single season. And he won AL Player of the Week for the week ended 9/14.

My next task is to try to determine if the bat was used in a 2 HR game just two days earlier on 9/7/2009.

Billy Butler, the Royals' doubles-hitting machine whose 13 hits led the Majors last week, was named the American League Player of the Week presented by Bank of America on Monday for the period ending Sept. 13.
Butler went 13-for-31 (.419) in seven games, and he had five doubles and two homers, which added up to 24 total bases -- tops in the AL. His 12 RBIs also led all Major League batters.
On Wednesday, against the Tigers, Butler rapped out three doubles for the fourth time this season, twice what any Royals batter has done in the club's history and something not accomplished in the Majors since at least 1900, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.
Currently riding a nine-game hitting streak, the 23-year-old first baseman tops the Royals in a number of offensive categories, including average (.303), doubles (46) and RBIs (80). The weekly award is the second of Butler's career, both coming within a month of each other. He had previously been singled out for the week ending Aug. 10.

Yeah Okposo is one of my favorite players, he's such a hard worker and a very nice guy. I work for the Islanders and I'm friends with the equiptment manager so I am able to get some things through him!

Not so much 'Game Used', but a nice esoteric AUTO piece of the 'Jackie Robinson' of the American League - Larry Doby.

Apparently he spent some time a s a liaison for MLB with Former Players. Just picked up this letter with envelope (addressed to Dick Allen) and Doby's Business Card with MLB:

djusticefan-Wow that's another great kyle okposo item.I wanted to send you a "pm" but you still have yours turned off.But yeah kyle is a great kid.My brother was great friends with another gopher player troy riddle.Troy played for them until 2004.And so since then me and my brother go to almost every game and stay after the games and get autographs and have got to know all the players.Plus every year they have a skating party and sign a team poster and other autographs.So i got to meet and know kyle okposo.And he has a freind who is a student trainer for the gophers who told me that kyle loved that the islanders got him out of there.And that he loves playing there.That stick is very nice and photomatched.Sure can not top that.Anyway ,tell your friend to tell kyle he still has fans here.By the way you are a lucky man to have a friend like that who can get you such great items.:)
I was able to get one more amazing stick yesterday, a photomatched Kyle Okposo warrior that he used on november 27th against the penguins!

I'd like to thank the forum's own BTPH for my latest pickup. It's a Crolls of Alameda durene jersey most likely from the 1960's. Crolls was a semi-pro baseball team from my hometown.

BTPH found this jersey in vintage clothing store and went out of his way to purchase it for me. I'm grateful for forum members like him that are always willing to help a fellow collector. It is going to go nicely in our 2nd Annual Sports Exhibit!

2009 Autographed Game Used Pink Captains Patch Jersey Gary Brackett -
My favorite player on the defensive side of the ball...
This is one jersey i really wanted, as I could not afford the $10,000 Peyton Manning Jersey...haha...
It's got some sweet grass stains which I was able to photomatch. And i love that he's a 3 'star'/time captain.
This jersey was used @ Tenn on Oct 11, where the Colts won 31-9. Brackett had 6 tackles in the game.

Brackett is one of the most underrated players in the league, and he's just finally getting noticed. He was a captain on the 07 super bowl team. So, Good luck to him, and the colts in the super bowl!!!!

Adding to the Larkin collection:

Picked up part of a broken signed Larkin gamer that is hammered with use and has his number on the top. Along with a Larkin hat from 90-94 time period and his road pants from 89, set 1. Looks like the pants were passed along to somebody else at a later period.

2005 Pujols gamer, first MVP year. Cracked, with light use. Beautifully formed signature, with an unique inscription that says a lot about the way Albert approaches the game...

Wow, nice Pujols bat. Where did you find that?

CampWest, that is a great display! Love how it turned out.

Thanks.... Its about an (retail) $800 case that I got used for a fraction of that cost... though I could have gotten a nice bat or two, it was worth it to keep the wife off my back! :D

Great Larkin pickups!

Wow, nice Pujols bat. Where did you find that?

It was at Albert's home until a few weeks ago, at which point he gave it to a family friend who sold it through a third party.

I imagine the problem with being a friend or family member of someone with any historical significance is that you're too close to appreciate it. To you, they're just good 'ol Joe Schmoe.

Fortunately, most collectors have no such problem :)

Picked up two items from the Braves today. A Jeff Francoeur game worn helmet (good use) and a Javier Vazquez BP jersey. The Vazquez is going on eBay and I want to keep the Francoeur but it depends on how much I make in return for the Vazquez. It's a pretty sweet helmet! I brought my girlfriend with me when I picked up the helmet & jersey in Atlanta and I pulled it out of the bag and all she could say is "oh my god you're so weird" :D

I have made some trades and have gotten a game issued Kenji Johjima bat (Really cool I think), an OSU Thaddeus Gibson game worn glove from the National Championship game versus LSU (signed and marked appropriately with his then #37 he wore his freshman year), and two Raiders gamers from former Buckeyes Chris Riehm and Rory Graves. If anyone wants to see photos, I can post them.

Great looking Choo jersey. I didnt realize they sold stuff on their press tour. Can you share any insight as to anything else they had for sale and if it was auction, raffle, sale...etc.? Thanks & congrats!
