        What does everyone else think? I wish I could capture this beauty better with pictures but it's tough for some reason. Maybe I need an equipment upgrade? Was great to see Manny and Johnny Damon mix it up with the media yesterday in Tampa. Getting excited for the 2011 season!
        I think it is a great jersey and the MLB hologram just makes it perfect. Manny's 500 HR jersey wasn't even hologram'd so you have the only one I have ever heard of for a true HR jersey!

        On framing, if you do frame it make sure it is on a hanger where you aren't affixing it to the background and attached to anything.

        Found this cool article about the jerseys "Halfway to St. Patrick’s Day" promotion :

          I guess you haven't been to the Yankees team store, Orioles team store, Mets, Nationals, Cardinals, Angels, and most others. When ever I travel to another city, I try to check out their team store for game used items. I find just the opposite of your statment. I find overpriced items for average players.

          Where you will find the "cheaper" jerseys are at the FanFests but those have questionable use and usually aren't hologram'd.

          Just curious what team stores you are going to.

                Must be pretty cool to have the jersey from what is currently his last home run. That said, I'm surprised you're not hoping that Ramirez flames out and doesn't hit any more in 2011
                I had that thought that if he never hit another one, this thing would be that much more special. But he's 170 RBI away from 2000 and with two more full healthy seasons there's a shot to get there. But most of all, he's so good for the game since you either hate the guy or love the guy and that will probably never change.
                Well, looks like this jersey will remain the one from his last home run. But I can't tell whether it just shot up in value, or down...

                  My real life got in the way and it's not mine anymore anyway. I initially thought up in value but not sure either. Would anyone care if they had Raffy's last HR jersey or Sheffield's? This was the last type of exit I expected him to make. What a crazy story.

                    Well I also have Manny Ramirez last Jackie Robinson Day Jersey, probably a good time to think about selling.

                          Whether or not he used steroids, Manny still had an amazing career and this is a very well documented, beautiful jersey.

                              I agree with that. Manny's 500 HR jersey wasn't even MLB hologram'd and I don't know for a fact about other HR jerseys but when Michael told me he bought this jersey I thought the greatest value was the fact that it was MLB Hologram'd and there may not be any other Manny holo'd HR jerseys in existence. If someone knows of another Manny HR jersey that is photomatched or MLB holo'd, let's hear about it.

                              Now that this looks like it most likely will be Manny's last HR ever makes this jersey even more valuable. The story behind it is also adds to the value with Manny getting traded from the Dodgers to the Chisox and was the only HR he hit for Chicago and now the last (?) of his career.

                              Now to the value, the value is what someone is willing to pay for it. Right now I would say it is $5,000 to $10,000, and I can say a minimum of $5,000 as I personally would buy it for that from the person Michael sold it to!

                                Andrew:

                                Rumor has it that this jersey was purchased by a high end game used collector out of the Los Angeles area Steve Mears. I emailed Mr. Mears without any response so far. If he has it can anybody confirm this. I would pay right now $10,000 for that jersey without question.
