Re: Frank Thomas HOF rookie game worn cap

No worries... Knowing I have an authentic rookie hat is what makes me happy. Good to know MY gut feeling and research was right along with all you guys that supported it.

You have proved yourself in your post and attitude to be a better man than many of us.

I guess the authentication fee would be the 125$ I spent to meet Frank... I video taped him saying, yep.. It's the real deal.. I signed like that back then when I was signing all the letters in my name... ))... I'll keep checking my mailbox.

Well if he is a man he will pony up.
But of course there are many "men" here who should be apologizing to you too but I don't see them doing it.

He has gone radio silent...

A man of his word I see.

Did TwinLakesPark ever pay you for the authentication fee?

Photos and info sent to Hall Of Fame commission. The decision is now in their hands. Has anybody ever submitted/donated an item to the HOF??

Spoke with the HOF. Waiting for the curator of a Franks exhibit to call back.. They did say you can loan or donate items.

Re: Frank Thomas HOF rookie game worn cap

I see you need to snail mail the info to them. Do you know how long it takes for a response? I think Frank is going into the hall in July?

Call the HOF at (888) 425-5633 during business hours. Ask for Susan MacKay, the head collections archivist.

She's the person to know. Good luck!

Re: Frank Thomas HOF rookie game worn cap

I sent an email to the HOF to see if they want the cap for Franks display. I just don't know if you can donate for a period of time or is it a permanent donation?

You can loan it for a specific time especially during the special HOF presentations. My rookie Maddux uniform would be loaned for a year if I choose to do it along with his rookie cleats, glove and bat. I don't think I want my good stuff there permanently at this stage of my life.

I believe they take permanent donations only. Here is a link that explains the process:
