April 2015 Pickups

Re: April 2015 Pickups

Just grabbed these from the Tigers...Marc's prices are normally asinine, but I felt that these two were pretty reasonable. Nick Castellanos Home Spring Training jersey and Victor Martinez Home BP Spring Training jersey. Both have the Joker Marchant Stadium 50th Anniversary patch.

That Batrite below is great. Plus Durocher was one of my grandpa's favorites.

Re: April 2015 Pickups

I've collected these over the last couple of months, but just haven't gotten around to posting...

First two pics are of a 1991 Ryne Sandberg GU jersey, set 1.

Third pic is of a nasty game used and unbroken Sandberg bat.

The next two pics are the GU uniform when Arismendy Alcantara hit his first career home run last season, followed by a photo match to that game.

Re: April 2015 Pickups

First two pics are of a GI Anthony Rizzo jersey. The jersey does show light wear and is Set 4, so I'm saying it was game worn. :-)

The next pic is of a game used lot of Aramis Ramirez.

The fourth pics includes from top to bottom: Glenallen Hill GU & signed bat, Zambrano GU bat, Almora GU & signed bat, Corey Patterson GU bat, Kerry Wood GU sock, Aramis GU hat, Aramis GU & signed cleats, Szczur game used cleats which I have photo matched.

The last two pics are a random game used Cubs batting helmet signed by Colvin (bought it that way), Schwarber, Addison Russell, Neil Ramirez, CJ Edwards, Pierce Johnson, Bobby Dernier, and I think Jacob Turner.

Not GU, but I just won the auction for this Roberto "Bobby" Bonilla store bat, which hung on the wall of the High Note Bar set on Justified.



I know a few others here collect screen-used or -worn items and would appreciate something like this. A couple of months ago, the same auction site had the second of two Sons of Anarchy prop and wardrobe auctions, and I picked up a baseball used as set dressing on the SoA clubhouse set, liberally signed and covered with profanity by the prop guys and some of the cast members.

Re: April 2015 Pickups

Awesome, I also won items from both SOA auctions and the Justified...got an "R" from Teller Morrow store front for my basement and several other SOA items and won one of the US Marshall wooden signs for basement as well. Congrats!

I had some high hopes going in to the first SoA auction. Knowing the incredible cult status of the show, I ought to have been prepared for some wild bidding. I wanted the green-beaded rosary that Chibs put in Opie's casket, but that went for a thousand, and several other items similarly soared right out of budgetary range pretty quickly. Still, I'm happy with what I got: a big redwood sign that hung in the Charming PD that says, "SHERIFF POST SJC 127", Ron Perlman's off-screen reading glasses, and the one item that I was determined to have whatever it cost me -

- the mysterious homeless woman's little stuffed pony.

Re: April 2015 Pickups

Many thanks to fellow forum member Harleigh fo selling me this Kurt Suzuki helmet. This has to be my favorite Minnesota Twins game used Suzuki memorabilia to date.

Received a ball pitched to Austin Jackson in Dodgers Stadium. I now have balls pitched to Austin Jackson in 22 of the 30 MLB parks.

Love SoA!

One of the best dramas ever broadcast.

I just found out that Ron Perlman is going to be at the Phoenix Comicon at the end of May. Guess I'm going to my first con.
