Sami Salo is my boy. I have the most complete set of his jerseys. The highlight is his only white Detroit Vipers jersey. He played 5 games with them, 3 in the purple and 2 in the white. The best part was, the seller refused to sell it off eBay until I sent him a link to my collection. He sold it for a very fair price (and less than he would have got) based upon the fact he felt it belonged in my collection.

Re: Most Prized Memorabilia

Tough to narrow it down to only one, or even two items...but Phineas T. Firebird, the old Phoenix Firebirds mascot, would have to be at or very near the top.



Also, the lineup card from the U.S. dugout for the final game against Cuba, in Havana, in the '06 Olympic qualifying tournament.

If I could pick 2 items from my collection it would be my ALbert Pujols Glove signed By Albert and my 1959 Game Used Stan Musial Hat that I just had Stan Sign a few months ago.

Re: Most Prized Memorabilia

For me it would be my 1950 Ohio State/Michigan program from the famous " now Bowl" game. I saw it on ebay and was out bid the last minute by just $.01 Disappointed, I put it out of my mind till about a week later I got an e-mail from the seller.

It turns out the guy who out beat me couldn't pay for it and everytime he tried his card was being turned down. The seller gave me his contact info and asked if I wanted it, to contact him at his store. I did the next day, gave my credit card and had the program in my hands by then end of the week.

The game was called the "Snow Bowl" because of the blizzard that day. Neither team scored a touchdown with scoring coming off of field goal attempts. The snow made it so hard to see, teams were punting on 1st or 2nd down. Ohio Stadium at the time held just over 80,000 people, but it was reported that under 30,000 made it to the game. Some program were rolled up and lit as torches to help keep warm, while others were just thrown away after the game. To find one in perfect condition is not only hard, but rare.

Another interesting note about the game, it was Francis Schmidt's last as the Buckeye's coach. The next guy hired to replace him, was some guy very few heard of by the name of Wayne Woodrow "Woody" Hayes.

Re: Most Prized Memorabilia

Any photos this looks like a very impressive collection to me at least.

My 1996 Alex Rodriguez Rawlings HR #15 (20th HR of his career) Bat. Only 12 bats were ordered by Arod in 1996. This being 1 of those 12, and being that it's a HR Bat, makes it pretty special bat.
