Peanuts compared to the rest of you, but got a partial team set of 7 high school or college jerseys in pinstripe/Yankees style. Rawlings Made in USA ca 1990s(?) Scored at a Goodwill near New Haven, CT -- can anyone ID the team?

Re: November Pick-ups

Excited to get this one, from the player direct. Richard Olsen (SP) Stuttgart Reds (Germany) home jersey. Was lucky enough to sit in the Adelaide Bite (Australia team) bullpen last weekend and talked with Richard for a bit.

Re: November Pick-ups

Just got this Dustin Pedroia game used 2013 World Series Marucci bat in today.

So far I matched the bat to W.S. games 4 and 6.

Also picked up three different colors of Franklin batting gloves from 2013 W.S. MVP David Ortiz.

Thanks,
Bobby

Re: November Pick-ups

Not new, but newly signed

first one is a rookie game worn jersey, second is rookie game issued, third is second year issued. Last picture is a picture of the signed jerseys (back side), my pic w/ him and a pic I took at the visitor's tunnel where I sit. These are very special to me as Sen is a friend of mine I've gotten to know over the last couple years when he was in Nashville.

Re: November Pick-ups

Well, needless to say, the past month has been good for me. I forgot to post my end of October pick ups so they are included as well.

I finally bit the bullet and purchased my "white whale" which is a game used Mike Schmidt bat. I have had other opportunities but I wanted a bat that showed excellent use and wasn't cracked. The bat I finally purchased is only slightly cracked...it was the pinetar and use that sold me. This now easily takes the cake as the center piece of my collection. Thank you Jerry!

Re: November Pick-ups

Picked up a couple new items for my Rangers collection:

2008 Nelson Cruz Road Vest Jersey


Hank Blalock Used and Signed Hat. My guess is a BP hat, not sure which year this was used, but for $25 I couldn't pass. Anyone have any ideas?

Re: November Pick-ups

Nice case Abstract! Did you build that yourself?

Thanks man! No, I didn't build it, but I did customize it with suede fabric and, of course, added the mount. Hanging jerseys on the wall without mating them down (possibly ruining them) was a better solution for my limited display space. I have a couple torso mannequins, but they take up a lot of room. Now, they hang in my frame just like they would in my closet, but I get to enjoy them instead of being hidden.

Re: November Pick-ups

For that Broncos jersey. At least consider displaying the front of the jersey. The front of a Nike jersey has so many unique parts to it, that its a no brainer which way I frame them. For

1- you get an NFL shield that is exclusive to gamers and elites (Metallic). Replicas and anything below have non metallic non silicone shields.
2- Broncos word logo
3- Front numbers sewn over seem (unique to elite 51's)
4- Fly wire collar
5- Unique size neck tag (Unique Metallic wording) elites and replicas no silver wording thread.
6- Nike checks and TV numbers (similar to back frame if not better)
7- Possible hit marks/face mask marks (usually on shoulder area)

Cons

No name displayed.

Just my 2 cents- the front of a nike jersey is like art work. Esp a Broncos jersey. The only cool thing keeping the broncos jersey from ultimate supreme ranking NFL jersey would be the Bronco horse head logo on the sleeves.

Okay, Anabolicollege17....All ribbing and teasing aside, I will admit that I do like the Nike look; always did. I just disagreed with the quality aspect of Reebok vs Nike. And, yes, I do agree that the front is pretty cool. However, since this jersey does not have a patch, I think the nameplate trumps the coolness of the front. However, I do have these jerseys "free-hanging" in these cases, so they are easy to flip if I so desire. If, and when, I obtain a patched Nike jersey, I will probably display the front. I have a Gary Zimmerman 75th patch gamer that I displayed front first, just because of that reason.

As for the Broncos' logo on the jersey, Reebok (yes I know), had an embroidered Broncos' horse logo on the belt of the pants. This was a nice complement to the overall uniform and Nike decided not to continue that aspect for whatever reason. In this particular case, I think the Reebok uniform (over all) was better looking. But, again, still like both pretty much equally.

So, Reebok pants > Nike pants. Sorry, man... Had to tease you one more time
