I went for the modern commercial look when I designed these. I ended up taking wasted, unused space and turned it into a fun way to display some of my collection in an ecclectic way.

Jeez Scott. Now I know you've told me you have one of the largest and most comprehensive Nolan Ryan collection extant. But never, in my wildest dreams, did I think that that was a gross understatement! Absolutely mind boggling. You're a sick puppy my friend, which is why I'm sure that that had a lot to do with us becoming friends... Jimmy

Also, just terrific sports rooms from all who posted! Absolutely First-Rate. Thanks to all for posting and I know that I would love to see more!

Early basketball net with closed bottom.


Metal busts from the Basketball HOF.


2 of my all time favorites: Charlie Criss and Connie Hawkins.


More Connie.


Game Used uniforms.


1920s and 1930s.
And to you Mr wpeters, I certainly don't need to be a Basketball fan to recognize the work of a passionate collector with a sharp eye! Well done. All good things, Jimmy
