Re: My humble Jose Canseco game-used collection
Hi Juan,
Thanks for sharing that. I always look forward to your replys on Canseco threads.
The only LOA that I have for the helmet is roughly 5 by 7. It has a green border and an Oakland A's logo on the top left corner. It says "from the Desk of Jose Canseco and it's signed by him. He says that the helmet was used during the 1990 regular season. It doesn't mention Grand Slam specifically. Is this the one you are referring to or was there another LOA? I'm so thankfull to have this helmet. I love it.
Thanks
-Jason

Re: My humble Jose Canseco game-used collection
Man, I really wanted to keep that helmet when I first saw it !!! I know exactly which item this is becasue Jose wrote the LOA from his own personal note pad. That is why you have the "from the desk of Jose Canseco" on it. We were not that advanced back then but the letter alone is a gem.....I think he only wrote a hand full of those letter before I started doing them in the computer on Grand Slam Marketing stationary. REALLY NICE !!!
thanks,

P.S. I really dont have anything for sale. I kept all the Canseco stuff because it just has to many memories.

Re: My humble Jose Canseco game-used collection
Also, look inside the helmet and you will see a circle stamped inside on the plastic. This will indicate the month and year the helmet was made!! Send me a pick and I will help you identify this information.
thanks,

Re: My humble Jose Canseco game-used collection
Here's my latest pickup from ebay. Canseco socks. He he. They are reportedly Tampa Bay Devil Rays socks from the 2000 season. I got them because I don't see socks up for sale to often, they were inexpensive and I thought they were kind of interesting. They are clean and they don't smell. He he he. Whaddya think?

Re: My humble Jose Canseco game-used collection
Have to add this to the McGwire jockstrap as one of the strangest Bash Brother pieces on the forum.
I saw the socks on ebay. Did they come with any form of authentication, team letter? I hope you didn't buy some random dude's old socks.

Re: My humble Jose Canseco game-used collection
Man I thought several times about buying those socks but just couldn't give up the $49.95 plus shipping for them. They look authentic and who can say they have Canseco game socks? If nothing else they will make great bat protectors. Just kidding Jason, Thanks for the photos. If anyone has any Canseco bat requests for trade or sale let me know.
Thanks Todd

Re: My humble Jose Canseco game-used collection
Woo hoo!!!
I'm really excited right now because I finally scored a Canseco game used baseball mitt. It seems to come with some pretty good provenance too. I'll post pics as soon as it arrives.
It looks like this
