    What is your Holy Grail of collecting?

    Piggybacking off the previous thread regarding Holy Grails, what is your Holy Grail of game used memorabilia? If you have already picked up your H.G. what item is it?

    Mine is easy. I'd love to own a Willie Stargell game used jersey some day.

    My Holy Grail of collecting would have to be a Ken Griffey Jr game used bat. I know there are a few out there, but the price is something that will make this item wait a little longer. Next on my list would probably be a Barry Larkin game used bat.
    Looking for: Joey Votto game used items.

    ANY jersey of ANY player of the Pittsburgh Pisces, used in the film, "The Fish That Saved Pittsburgh".

    My Holy Grail is a Frank Thomas game used glove. I have yet to find one since I started collecting. I finally picked up a jersey (maybe two as one sale is still pending) so my concentration is now on finding a glove of his. With patience and time I am sure I will succeed. I can't help but wonder what I will do once I have acquired my Holy Grail...maybe work on intensifying my Thomas collection as a whole

    You mean you don't want the matching shorts too? Man, I don't even think John Stockton would wear the shorts that Set Shot has on.

    BTPH, (assuming this is not a joke) how hard have you looked for this? Have you tried contacting any of the actors who had a role or the production company? I have also heard some tales of companies that own all the costumes from movies. How about the wardrobe designers? I have my own grails and spend much time doing what I call "plotting" in an attmept to find them.

    Sure BTPH would love the Set Shot Buford 'gamer', but could he choose between that and a Warren Coolidge 'gamer'? Tough.

    I'd love to acquire a Dr. J. game jersey some day, but it seems unlikely. Big money.

    GFC has a sweet Erving 76ers jersey that will be in their next auction. I'm gonna take a wild Lampson and say it will sell for more than any other Julius Erving NBA gamer has sold for in the past.

    I would have to say it would be a Milwaukee Brewers game used bat from the 1982 World Series of any player from that team.
    Thanks,

    P.S. I'm always looking for Milwaukee Braves and Brewers game used bats.
