This is the first time I have come across this thread. Wow there are very impressive items here. Allow me to share my own two favorite Red Sox pieces. The first picture contains items that are of little significance in terms of value other than the memories they bring back to me. In 1970 at age seven my father took me to see my first game at Fenway. Needless to say I was hooked. When people ask me how long I have been collecting I always show them this picture of me with the pennant and pins that remain in my collection. He bought me those items that day and I will cherish them always. The fact that I managed to hold onto them for 41 years speaks volumes of the impact that my father and that day had on me. The other is a Fisk a payroll check. I realized early in life that my own meager baseball talents would never generate such a check with my own name on it.
