If he is saying truthfully it's the most valuable, then it's already sold at least once, and that makes it the Ruth uniform. Otherwise no way to know.

IF it has sold once, wonder why he is saying they cannot reveal what it is. What is the shroud of secrecy??

Hype. Of course he can reveal it even if it hasn't sold before, I would guess, but saying he can't adds to the hype. If he revealed it in advance who would pay attention to the press conference?

Ken said on GUU it will be the first sports related item to sell for 8 figures.

If it's a new item it will be interesting to see whether the provenance is controversial.

I am sure it is every bit as real as the Babe Ruth catchers mitt.

Jay's non baseball card guess is just a year off. It's Cy Young's Cleveland Spiders full uniform along with other rookie items. It will be a massive once in a lifetime group of items that has never been to auction.

Not after the last time Goldin was called out here. He lawyered up, sent cease and desist letters and it was business as usual. People could not remove their posts fast enough.
