Picked up the Lance Berkman game used bat from John Taube. I was able to photo match it to his first game off of the disabled list on September 1. I believe it was his first Yankee branded bat to use in a game, he used Astros bats until he went on the disabled list on August 15th. He used the bat from September 1, to his first at bat on September 8......he went 8 for 17 during that time.
I saw this bat, mis-identified on eBay as an Arizona Fall League bat, and picked it up. It's actually from the Arizona League, a rookie league that plays here in the Phoenix area for about two months in the summer - the first bat from that league that I've ever seen.
When I got ahold of the bat yesteday, the first thing I did was to go online to try to figure out the auto. A couple of minutes on the Baseball Cube and eBay (photos of signed items) was all it took. It's long-time pro player Orlando Miller, and probably dates from around '94, when Miller was with the Astro's Triple-A Tucson club.
For a collector of Arizona-related Baseball stuff, this was a welcome find.
Here is my latest. Just arrived. I would like to thank Brad Shafran for making the introduction to the seller. I have been looking for a nice Posada glove for sometime now. I am very pleased with this one! This thing has great use!
Not exactly game used but I think it's pretty cool and I think you guys will appreciate it. This is a baseball letterman's sweater from 1929 that belonged to Vernon Clark, a pitcher for the Gators from '29 to '32. Got it from his daughter-in-law on Ebay. It's got a hole in the back of the neck and it's shrunken from it's original size but overall it's in very good condition.

Just picked this up recently and wanted to show it off a little, even though it isn't nearly as cool as some of the other stuff in this thread (still cool to me). We recently had our second daughter (Madeline) this year on October 2nd. I was able to work with JJ at Steiner and had him secure me the dugout lineup card from the Cubs/Astros game from that day.
I thought it was a pretty cool one of a kind piece of memorabilia that would look good in "dad's room". Sadly I didn't think of this idea when my first daughter was born (6/21/07) so I'm having some trouble finding a similar GU item form that day. If anyone has anything from that day from any of the games, please let me know.
Just one, from the 1939 movie Hell's Kitchen, the Hudson Reform School hockey jersey worn by Leo Gorcey of the Dead End Kids and later the Bowery Boys.
The team was coached by Ronald Reagan.

I’m fortunate enough to be friends with one of the greatest members on this forum, Tigerdale. Dale made it possible for me to obtain what I feel is my Austin Jackson Holy Grail, his First MLB bat. This is the bat he used in his first 17 MLB at bats. He recorded his first hit, double, triple and RBI using this bat. THANK YOU DALE I OWE YOU BIG-TIME!!! I also picked up a Jackson Yankees Era Louisville Slugger. BMH says this model was his first order and only order of this model in August of 2005. Being drafted in June 2005, it could be a bat from his first professional personalized order, which I think is cool.
Great pick ups. Has that bat always been the one in your signature?
