I'd love to see what items other collectors have in there private collections. I'll start with a couple. Can't wait to see what everyone has.

Here is my first post...Game Used and auto'd Reebok Red Fingered batting gloves. These became something of a grail item for me as he only used this style for a single season. Missed out on them on eBay as they went for an astronomical price, turned up at a MEARS auction about 2 months later and went for about half as much. Happy to have them in the collection...finally!

Here are the similarly difficult to find Red 35 Reebok Wristbands that, IMO, were designed to accompany these batting gloves.

Perhaps the best thing to come out of ESM. Love it! Do you still have the signed loa?

Keep em coming!

Lastly on the Reebok and Red issued gloves and wristbands I present my Frank Thomas glove, cir 1997-99. The missing thumb holder was going to be a deal breaker for me, but then I got to looking at some pictures and I began to feel better.

Here is another example of how the card companies are ruining OUR hobby. This is probably one of the best examples of why its been so hard to track down a pair of those red fingered batting gloves! Talk about frustrating. When I first saw this card I gasped for air LOL Would I ever be able to find myself of pair for my collection, or had they all been chopped up and vultured for card use.

Joel,
You beat me to it.. I'd love to see a Thomas Auburn or Barons jersey. If I ever win the lottery I will have Auburn jersey's of Frank Thomas, Charles Barkley, and Bo Jackson. Three of the greatest athletes in the 3 major sports all from one great University.

Sylbry,

Great ball !!!! Sucks that the authentication program was still up and coming towards the end of Franks career, but at the same time thankful that there was a program for items like that! Love it!

Joe & Jimmy,

I have never seen a Thomas Auburn gamer or Team USA jersey I would love to have one in the collection though as well. I have seen a 1990 #15 Home sox jersey hit the market before...just didn't have the funds needed to be aggressive at it. Oh well. Next time.

Everyone...

Keep those items coming. I will continue to post, just have had quite an erratic schedule for consistency. I'm digging sharing the collection with you guys.

Appropriate in size, characteristics, and markings I present this game used Chicago White Sox hat. Sweat stain included! A nice example of a Thomas hat.
