Re: What's the greatest item you've ever seen for sale/at auction?
best item i have seen in person at an auction was in 1990 at the Rangers winter carnival / sale the Rangers put the all star game jerseys from the previous season up at a live auction in the ballpark. they didnt have the patches but they had letters from the team saying they were used in the all star game . The Ryan went for 5 grand and that was 20 years ago. Reese Ryan his youngest son was in crowd bidding on it and dropped out around 2000 i stopped at 3000 if it had had the all star game patch i would have gone higher.

1951 Willie Mays Minneapolis Millers Home Jersey
Some interesting background from the description.
It was first brought to the attention of the collecting community when a Minneapolis resident took it to the Antiques Roadshow on June 26, 2004. He had purchased the jersey for fifty dollars about twenty years earlier at a small collectors show. Over the years he began to wonder about which players might have worn the jersey. His excitement in finding out that Mays wore number "28" with the Millers in 1951 was tempered by the fact that his research seemed to indicate that this was a 1950-style Millers jersey. Mays only played with the Millers for thirty-five games in 1951. Undaunted, and knowing that teams recycled their uniforms, he continued his research and eventually found the two accompanying photos that prove, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that Mays did indeed wear this jersey during his brief time with the Millers.
pretty amazing that this exists and it does not belong to Willie Mays himself or the HOF.
