2013 Antonio Brown Exclusive Game Used Agreement

[KGoldin]

Hello All.
I just wanted to let you know that one of my businesses, Goldin Sports inc, has an exclusive agreement with Antonio Brown of the Steelers for all of his game used items in the 2013 season. This is for every game of the 2013 season. Each item is signed and inscribed by him with the following information
'game used : date of game: vs team ' with signature.
Each jersey comes with the tape applied by equipment manager after the game with game information.
Each item comes with an affidavit hand signed by Antonio. Each item is unwashed.
At the end of the season we will get his helmet he wore for all 16 games.

The Sept 22 game vs CHI 9 catches, 196 Yards 2 TDs game equipment (jersey, gloves, cleats) will be available in the Goldin Auctions January catalog, which opens up for bidding Jan 13th.
Others will be auctioned off or sold privately in the future. Most games are available. Everything is of course photo matched and player direct.
We all know how difficult Steelers game used equipment is, and Antonio is the best player on the Steelers this year, top 5 in yards and receptions.
Look for these items or email me at ken@goldinauctions.com

That's awesome! I wish you could get the hookup with Justin Tucker (Ravens kicker). Would love a game used football used to kick a long and/or decisive field goal.

Not sure about ALL of his game used items..he traded his jersey with Calvin Johnson after the Lions game this year...

Isn't that the jersey that Ken posted a photo of? Did he wear two jerseys that game?

Re: 2013 Antonio Brown Exclusive Game Used Agreement

I spoke to Antonio about that
he wore the jersey we have (and posted) for the first half, and traded the 2nd half one with Calvin
That was actually a violation of my contract which states 'all jerseys must be worn for full game, not a half or a quarter' which his agent says will not happen again

Haha he had better hope so. That'd be an embarassing start.

Its important to note, both of his touchdowns came in the first quarter, wearing the first half jersey (ours). So with that in mind, and having enough money spent suing players in 2013 (see Kobe Bryant lawsuit...) I decided I wanted to keep a good relationship with Antonio and the Steelers and let it slide.. Also I want to get that Calvin throwback from him!

Ken, is this the beginning of other player exclusive contracts for your company? Just curious

If there are key players on key teams that I can sign to reasonable deals that assures authentic game used items can be made available to the collector in a highly controlled environment, with contracts for the season, and affidavits for every item, then yes it is possible 2014 I will add a couple key names.
Am I Going to go out on a rampage and sign 10-20 players to deals, no. If the right deal presents itself that makes financial sense I certainly will look at it. I learned from my score board days not to go out and try to sign the world. A couple key football players would be nice, especially from teams where authentic game used has been difficult in the past to acquire.

I also can only work with players who understand and will honor the terms of an agreement, and agents who will stay on top of them to do so.

Based upon the integrity this post shows, I wish you the best of luck.
