I read this post when I first joined GUU and ever since thought it would be really cool to have an item that also appears on a baseball card. I have finally had that happen. At Royals Fan Fest 2016 I bought a Johnny Cueto game used hat that I have photo matched to at least 7 different starts with the Royals in 2015. He only made 13 starts in the regular season for the Royals. I found a Bowmans Best Johnny Cueto card on EBay that had the same picture as one I photo matched the hat to.
It's really hard to see it in the card so I grabbed the Getty Images picture to make it easier to see. The picture was taken on August 26, 2015 when Johnny made a start against the Orioles at Kauffman Stadim.
I have also bought one of the cards to display with the hat.
I think this is a great thread and we should revive it. So any one else have any new items to post?
I have been waiting for this one. I knew the chances were going to be good that this helmet would show up on some baseball cards this year. I have the helmet that Alex Gordon used in 116 games of the 2016 season. The helmet is shown on his 2017 Topps series 1 card. One of my biggest joys is to see the items that I own show up on a baseball card. This card shows: Alex Gordon #4 of the Kansas City Royals scoring on a double hit by Salvador Perez #13 during the fourth inning against the Cleveland Indians at Progressive Field on May 8, 2016 in Cleveland, Ohio
