Your Favorites

What is your favorite item in your collection? Or if you'd like to break it down by favorite glove, ball, uniform, bat, photo, et cetera that would be fine too.

Here's mine: 1910 Snapshot photo of Eddie Collins before a World Series game.....the fella in the background is dressed like Connie Mack, but I'm not sure if it's him or not.

Thanks Mike. Has anyone seen one of these and know what it's worth? It's also one of my favorites. Clint.

I'm not really a vintage collector, or a collector of photos for that matter (I do have an extensive autograph collection of many HOFers) but that photo is awesome! I think it's really neat how it catches Collins in a candid moment with what looks like Connie Mack behind him (I blew the picture up and am pretty confident it is). I also love how the crowd is filing in and milling about. Neat photo!
