Re: Show Me your NFL stuff
34swtns-Thanks much! It means a lot to me that other collectors enjoy seeing the collection. It is one of the many reasons that I collect with such passion, as I am sure you do with Da Bears!
Starting in 1991 and switching to gamers in 94, while living in SF, really helped. I was able to meet many GU collectors that I still correspond with today. Many of the new additions are from collectors and dealers that I have done business with since 94. I had a lull in GU collecting from 1998-2005 but caught the bug again after buying a Derrick Loville 94 SB worn throwback. After that I was hooked and have been fairly lucky at times.
Also offering good $$$ for collector's gamers really helps "push" the sale along! I cant tell you how many times I have been able to purchase a shirt that has been for sale (or even not for sale) by making a GOOD offer. It also helps open the door to networking and additional purchases.
You have a great Bears collection and with JO getting the shirts it is sometimes too easy (but expensive) to get what you want. I try to only buy current players that I like (if they are cheap enough) or possible superstars at reasonable prices. I dont think you can go wrong with vintage football gamers as there always seems to be a market for them. People tend to remember the "good old days"-like the 94 49ers. Shirts from such teams tend to hold their value. Todays shirts are produced in such #s that, unless the shirt is from an important game, value tends to drift down-almost like a used car!
Well thanks for the compliment and happy collecting. I have a few nice posts coming up so stay tuned!
Best

early 50s Steelers George Hughes jersey, tons of repairs on it, with a screenshot of him at guard at Forbes Field back in the day! I couldn't figure out how to rotate the photos, sorry about that...

That Steelers jersey is as awesome as the 1962 Pireats one you posted earlier. GREAT STUFF!

Re: Show Me your NFL stuff
Just got this in the mail today...I've been looking for a Teal Davone Bess jersey for a while. Unwashed with lots of grass stains and hit marks, game worn this season from J.O. Sports. Thanks to Robert for the heads up!
