Re: Do you collect Game-Used Bases?
Does anyone know of any base frames or cases that allow you to display the base without taking the metal post off the base?

Re: Do you collect Game-Used Bases?
Picked up some nice displays off of eBay for $80 or so.
I enjoy bases because they can be directly tied to an event (e.g., when there are special logo bases) or a statistic (you can't get your 3,000th hit without touching first base).

Re: Do you collect Game-Used Bases?
Tony, for each commemorative base, do you know roughly how many times teams use bases with the logo vs. just a jewel being commemorative? For example, for Ripken's retirement, it looks like they had the #8 jewel in many games, but the base with the farewell logo was used only in the final home series? On the other hand, the bases celebrating a stadium milestone seem to have been used on different dates not just the end of the season. I'm just trying to get a sense of how many of these logo bases were used for each logo type, if there is any pattern throughout MLB.
