Alright, who can top who

[d2ray13]

With all the pieces out there, and the many readers of GameUsedForum.com, who has the most amazing, significant, unbelievable piece? Whether it is an ARod hr bat, or a Babe Ruth game used jersey, let's hear some!

Re: Alright, who can top who

I have posted photos of these bats on the forum already, but my greatest find ever was 4 game used 1940-50's era bats for $300.00 at an estate auction. This was right before Christmas and couldnt have been a better gift. They didnt know what they had and I dont think anyone else there did either when I walked away with an Mel Ott 016 gamer, as well as a Dom DiMaggio 031 gamer as well. The two other bats were a bat with DURST in block letters, and an Enos Slaughter bat which I traded away. Probably the greatest find I will ever have. These came out of a former players estate, but the auction company did not know whose.

Re: Alright, who can top who

I was kinda mad, not a lot of people replied, but oh well. Here goes my shot, like many, I collect Alex, Derek, and a little bit others here and there. But I have invested so much into Alex and Derek, it really is not funny! Here are some amazing items I have:

Alex Rodriguez 2004 "Z" fielder's glove, used in every game

Alex Rodriguez 2005 #1 glove, used in every game

Alex's rookie away jersey

Derek's first ever yankee jersey, an amazing piece. Derek came into the league, into the Yankee's organization, and was a nobody. Therefore, nobody's don't get there own jersey. This was tagged as a b. williams 94 jersey, with the number 7 patch ripped off, (outline still visible), and the black band honoring mantle ripped off (still visible.)

Two of my most amazing pieces is Alex's first ever yankee batting helmet, cracked, after he threw it against a boston series, and his 2005 cracked yankee helmet, where he hit number 400, the amaing game vs. anaheim, and the longest hr in yankee stadium (hr. 34)

Along with dozen's of hr bats from Alex, and gamer's from derek, this collection I have put together is pretty awesome.

I hope to hear more collections!!!

Don't despair- these things take time. Maybe once you post your pics, maybe more people will jump into this thread.

My favorite and most valuable piece has to be my Game used painted trophy football given to Ron Jaworski after the 1980 NFC Championship Game.

Re: Alright, who can top who

Actuallly its funny you mention that bcuz thats what they told me that there preparing this jersey to be sent to florida to have Jeter sign it. So I actually saw the jersey before it was signed. What was the inscription that Jeter put on there?

I found the past thread I started months ago about this jersey.

Re: Alright, who can top who

Eric Davis SF Giants black alternate jersey. Could have been worn the night Bonds broke the single-season HR record. Easily photo-matched, but I honestly don't know how many of these jerseys were issued per player.
Willis Otanez Orioles 1999 road jersey. I believe this was worn in the game in Havana against the Cuban national team, but have never been able to find a photo match. It's the only Otanez #1 jersey I've ever seen (he is listed in the 1999 media guide as #52, which he wore in 1998, and wore #24 during the regular season.)
There are others, but you get the idea. Great looking jerseys, of possible historic significance, purchased directly from the teams, that together cost less than a Jeter "game used" Kleenex would.
