Let's see some display room pics

Here is a photo of a very small part of my collection I would say about 20% of it with the remaining portion in storage, waiting to be displayed.

Anyone have contact info for PGriffin? It looks like he is a big vintage glove collector and I had a quick question for him.

Thanks.

Jim,

Fantastic to hear from another Rhodey!! Now that I look at that Gansett sign more closely, I can see that it's a billboard attached to the side of a building....extremely nice!! I'll have to show that one to my dad. Where did you get it?

You hit another nerve when you mention the Reds. I have some wonderful memories of them going to games with my dad at the old Rhode Island Arena with the old chicken wire and full of smoke so thick you couldn't breathe.

Keep in touch and have a great holiday!!

Had to show off my replica Yankees left field wall ( made by the same company who manufactures the panels for the Yankees ) - a couple of Yankees stadium seats and a few game used bats.....Sorry if you are not a Yankees fan!!

Still a work in progress. My wife let me gut the closet in this room and add another with no doors to make a locker type display. One's full and the other is not.

Rob,

Those are beautiful displays, but why does your wife get more uniforms than you -- what's the deal with that?!

I've enjoyed seeing contributions to this thread since it got started...this is what our hobby is all about! We moved to a new home a few months ago, and I finally finished my "sports room" this week. I went with the slatwall/tempered glass solution mentioned in another thread. Not the cheapest way to go, but definitely worth the time and money. My wife is a lifelong Cardinals fan and I'm a lifelong Cubs fan....so she has her side and I have mine...

Rob,

Nice room! I was wondering about your Pujols items. Are any of the Pujols items other than the glove on display autographed? Also, were you able to photomatch the Carolina Clubs pujols bat in your collection? And where is the 2004 Pujols World Series bat?

[RobSteinmetz]

Thanks for the kind words. I'll post some updated display room pictures...these are really outdated. In terms of your Pujols questions, I don't have a Carolina Clubs bat in my collection (never have). My 2005 home Pujols jersey is autographed, as was my 2001 home rookie jersey (I have since sold the rookie jersey to a friend who made me an offer I couldn't refuse). In the photos currently posted, the 2004 World Series bat is barely visible in the lower right corner of the Cardinals case. Updated pictures coming soon...

Hi Rob ,
Very nice display room (also nice items in the cases) . Actually looks better than The Ted Williams Museum in the Trop . Your cases are tons nicer and look professionally made .

Wait a minute ! I thought Cardinal fans hated Cub fans and visa versa ??????

A Cubs fan married a Cardinal's fan? Love trumps all ..... LOL
