In case you missed it, American Memorabilia has two of the most interesting Robinson items I have seen in some time closing tonight. The consignor found a bat, glove and 2 caps in a garage in NY which authenticate pretty damn well. The bat received a GU 9 grade from PSA, and the glove looks like a good style match and a solid handwriting match to me on a "42" written there. As I write this, both items are over $45K with the BP, and I expect them both to break $70K. Maybe the glove gets over $100K. I cannot be as confident in the caps, as the sizes do not match known Robinson caps, but who knows? Worth checking these photos out for historic interest:
