Any Item In Your Collection HOF Worthy?

Re: Any Item In Your Collection HOF Worthy?

i can definitely see your item in the hall of fame display.

not one item in mine would qualify.

I agree. That's a very nice piece.


I personally wouldn't loan anything to the HOF, since I think it looks better in my room

I think the only possible piece I have that could be remotely close to being HOF quality is Mark Kotsay's jersey worn when he became only the 2nd player in Atlanta Braves history to hit for the cycle. It would look nice if inside a display for Atlanta Braves equipment.

Re: Any Item In Your Collection HOF Worthy?

I had the pleasure yesterday of going to Cooperstown for a visit to the Baseball Hall of Fame and on the four hour ride back home, let my mind wander if I had any memorabilia worthy of display there (obviously as a loan; not donation).

The best thing I could think of out of my collection were the lineup cards that were carried in the home plate umpires pocket on 05/30/82, for the first game of Cal Ripken Jr.'s consecutive game streak.

What's the ONE item you currently own that you could imagine the Hall of Fame (baseball or football) accepting for display?

Re: Any Item In Your Collection HOF Worthy?

Bill, Great question! I definitely think your Orioles lineup cards are HOF worthy given their obvious connection to Cal's streak. Unfortunately I don't have anything in my collection that is HOF worthy except maybe the 1930's Alameda japanese flannels that I have.

Sounds like you had a great time on your visit to the HOF. I've yet to make it there but I hope to one of these days.
