Thanks Mr. Tresh for your insight. Next Time I watch "Porn Stars", I will be very wary of items brought into the "Porn Store".

Folks, it's a TV show. Newsflash...everything on TV and on the internet is not always true.

Very true and I agree...

Just thought that some folks would like to see the item in it's original home. I just posted the link as an update to the thread.

I'm glad you posted this. I knew the Gehrig was bogus. After the show originally aired, I read countless forums and message boards and others thought the same thing. I don't watch "Pawn Stars" to learn about Sports Memorabilia or any other collectable for that matter.
When buying, I follow the mantra of this very forum:
"do your homework".

True -

When I saw it the first time, I told my wife - "I'll bet there is someone watching this show that is thinking...GREAT deal on that Gherig jersey"...

The jersey did get people talking, and if that's what the producers were after, they got what they wanted.

That's TV for ya.

Nice Find I knew there was A Issue with that Jersey because it went for so little.

Do you guys remember I posted this forum about those baseball bats I bought at an estate sale? Well, it turned out that I got all 15 bats for $40.00 total. I didn't realize I had 2 prized possessions (which were game used bats). Sold one for $25.00 and sold the other for $10.00. Then another guy asked for those little league Mickey Mantle baseball bats. Sold 2 for $12.00. In the end, I got all of my money back. Now there' someone out there who wants to buy the other 4 bats for $25.00 total.

Things are looking good but profit is very very slow.

I found couple Olympic tickets. Some sketch arts.

Best thing I ever purchased was an original Sunday comic of KRAZY KAT by George Herriman.

As for sports collectibles - nothing much except for starting lineups which are mostly junk now (thanks to McFarlane toys).
