    How to build a World Class Sports Memorabilia collection from scratch

    Secret on how to do this courtesy of the "Medici of Mets collectors", Andy Fogel.

    Thru the years Andy's nickname has changed from the "GodFather of Mets collectors" to "the Source" (think Fortunoff the store).

    Like his collection his moniker is forever evolving

    Always looking for 1973,1986,1988,1999,2000,2006 game used Mets post season and Bobby M. Jones and Ed Hearn NY Mets game used bats.

    That is awesome, I certainly can't compete with that but even with what I try to pick up I don't think I could start all over again! He's 100% right about not being able to get it "all". Enjoy your pickups, enjoy others' pickups. If you need something by all means go after it but if you don't really need it let someone else enjoy it.

    Now who wants to sell me a Pittsburgh Pipers warmup!!! :-)
