im pretty partial to this collection.

its getting tougher and tougher to find Lankford stuff. i missed out on a recent EBay auction because my damn CPU shot craps this weekend. i am kicking myself in the ass for that one. a forum memeber ended up with it and im certain hes a fan as well.

i dont have any 2004 bats. the only "new" RL items (#12) i have is a home cap.

sorry.

Re: I love to see everyone collection!

No problem. I missed out on that one too.

its amazing (at least it is to me). i have the worst luck with EBay.

most of my items come from Cardinals Care / team sponsored auctions or local and non-local dealers.

Don the Legend -

Actually I won the C271 that was up last week. I am a Laknford fan, but I collect all Cardinals outfielders from '83-now. Last week, I picked up an Eric Davis model that Ray used (based on knob # and barrell marks)...

I LOVE your collection. Great stuff. Especially the spikes, man what a great find.

Looking at your bats, I am almost 100% certain that the Rawlings model with the Blue tape was actually once part of my collection...I traded it a while back - if you want more info on where it originated from, email me. bigtruck260@centurytel.net

You are right though, there are not many of us that collect Ray - and those that do are hoarding their stuff. I guess I have 5 of his bats in my office...not quite your collection, but enough to make me proud. I have them in various displays with other guys (Edmonds, McGee, Jordan, Gant).

it amazes me that even though Ray was A pretty good player, and one of the best players on the team in the 90's, that many people in this city are reluctant to give him any credit.

that said anytime i see an item up for auction (whether it be EBay or locally) there is always good action for that item.

you must be correct in saying that collectors are hoarding items. there has to be a ton of his stuff out there, yet little is available.

i once followed a kid and his grandparents off the field after a "shirt of their backs" day (the kid won the scratch off and had the Lankford jersey). i walked with them and explained my interest and offered them (in $100 increments) up to $450 for it. they didnt bite and i was pretty bummed out.
