Thought I'd chime in on this one, I have a ton of very expensive vintage baseballs, but this one means a lot to me, not just the ball, but the whole piece.

My Mom tells this story of my Dad watching the Angels / Athletics game while my Mom was in labor, Because I took so long to make my way into the world my Dad got a little bored and payed more attention to the Game that was going into extra's. I've been an Angels fan since the day I was born so it means a lot to me to find this.

Its a ticket stub from the game, April 6th, 1982 the day I was born, and the very game my Dad was watching! California Angels @ Athletics! I know its not too old but to find a random ticket like this was amazing to me, and only for $1 on eBay! I would have paid $500 if I needed to. I later added a boxscore and then a 1982 team signed ball to top it off. I think its a one of a kind, and one of my fav's.
