Show Off Your Newly Renovated Memorabilia Rooms

Re: Show Off Your Newly Renovated Memorabilia Rooms

I just can't compete with you guys - and I'm not sure I'd want to. I have far too much personal stuff, political stuff, and other interests to ever have a sports room that large. This is the extent of my on-display sports collection. I have other items that are not on display, but that is fine by me. I might eventually want a sports memorabilia room, but that's about as far as I'd go.

I am looking for another pair of cleats to fill the bottom right portion of this display case, hence my posts in the Wanted subforum.

My autographed and/or g/u bat collection, including Pete Rose, Hunter Pence, and Jeff Bagwell.

That's pretty much it.

MOMEN55,
I see you have some game used batting helmets. I was wondering who's helmet is the Brewers one.
Thanks,

skube;
let me tell you a story about that helmet; it is sold by the way. i bought it as a greg brock gamer. when i received it, i noticed that the helmet had been painted all blue, but could still see the outline of the white panel.
i used some waterbased solvent that soften the blue paint and with a little elbow grease and a few hours, that is what was underneath! the stripper didn't harm the white paint nor harm the plastic. i washed the paint off and gave it a quick buff.
the pics i took of the process are in the drive of my old computer that crapped out and i can't get them extracted. but i was surprised when i saw that it was the older style.

i restore helmets, and that was the first one i did!

Not newly renovated, but here's my room. At least part of it anyway. This is how I have my jerseys displayed.

My wife works for a museum exhibit design company and they can make those cases with museum quality fabrics, glass, etc. They are not cheap (like $500-$750) but they display really nicely and are literally used in museums like the HOF. I have one that they are working on now. I can put you in touch with the shop that does their fabrication if anyone is interested. Nice cases for high-end stuff are hard to come by and I like having these types of custom cases where you can display multiple items and rotate them.

Greg - Can you email me some info as I want to display some of my 2005 Washington Nationals collection if I can fit it all in. I have 1 game used base, ceremonial 1st pitch home plate and pitching rubber, 1 game used home jersey, 1 game used ball, 1 autographed team ball, game used cap and 1 HR bat, and set of catchers equipment.

I would like to know your thoughts. Thanks!

Can you make these pictures a lot larger. I can't see your collection, and I just want to know what goodies are in it.

Re: Show Off Your Nelwy Renovated Memorabilia Rooms

Sorry, I tried about 15 different angles and I really have to get close up before you can read the names and only about 9 bats show at a time. I have about 310 used Mariners bats starting from '77 running through this year. Ichiro is the big hole and Omar Vizquel is the little one. Just about every other big name is well represented as well as many obscure M's.

Thanks!

My 9 X 11 office has been gutted and remodeled since last October. Here are some photos. We removed the original (1936) windows, all trim, and closet door, and custom built the bookcases and display case. Except for the Eddie Murray, all photos were taken by me.

Re: Show Off Your Nelwy Renovated Memorabilia Rooms

Here are some pics from my basement and my office displaying some of my sports items. I have added a few things recently but I don't have pics of them yet. I will add them later today or tomorrow.
