Default World's best private collection

I just saw the biggest, baddest, most amazing private sports collection in the world. Wowzer! For all you collectors that live close to Los Angeles or are here on your next trip, I highly recommend checking out the LA Sports Museum and the collection of Gary Cypres. Espn story here

He's got everything from cards, equipment, jerseys, one of kind finds, ad pieces and games and mechanical toys. It's mind blowing. Easily $40-$50 million on display in today's market. $15 entrance fee. Open weekends only.

I took a bunch of photos to share

Wow and only 2 hours from here. Definitely going to see it. My Great Great uncle Elmer Miller played for the Yankees in the 1921 World Series. Wonder if they had anything of the team of the 21 Yankees? Did they have any 1921 E121 cards there? Simply looks amazing.
