I just wanted to make a post about my Collection. I know it isn't as big or as great as everybody's and I always wish I could add certain things but I love what I have. I am 27 years old and I live in California but I grew up watching the Braves on TBS every night with my mom. My sports hero is Chipper Jones and I love the Braves. My prized possesions are my Chipper items which include 2 bats one black and blonde (each side of the plate) A game used third base from Dodger stadium which he played in that game farewell season batting glove and a batting practice/ spring training jersey which I bought because I couldn't afford one form a regular season game but I love it all the same because he wore it. I also have 4 different lineup cards from 4 braves dodger games I attended including the last two games Chipper ever played at Dodger stadium.
I also have an Andruw Jones game used bat and because I wanted something from Glavine and Smoltz but am on a limited budget I got some Pitching charts they filled out that I won form Leo Mazzone collection through celebz direct. Also have some Frenchy items because he is my second favorite player off all time behind Chipper.
I wish I had more but the truth is I love everything I have and if I never got another thing it would be fine because trust me I never as a little kid ever thought I would have a bat in my possession that chipper swung in a baseball game. It blows my mind just looking at it in my room.
This is just an amazing hobby filled with awesome stories about why people collect what they do such as Toddhead and why he collects Garin Cecchini items. Those are the really cool stories. Also getting to go on the pickup of the month thread to see what other people got and hear why they chose to spend their hard earned money on that item is awesome.
To even have just one item I think is awesome and I don't worry about what I don't have or want and what I can afford or what other people can spend on certain items because at the end of the day you can either have a collection of items you love or you can have a collection that you always see missing pieces because someone else got it instead of you. I choose to gave a collection I love
