Grant is cool.

Did you make up the part about a dog named “Precious”?

I am a uniform and sweater collector. The issue for me with a lot of stuff that comes from the families is whether or not it was used during the playing career. I like the ones where the name is sewn in the collar and we know that this is something that was at least tagged correctly. I have seen 2-3 dead ball heirlooms passed down from families claiming to be game worn, which were never tagged as such and were either reunion issues, or perhaps an extra grabbed out of the clubhouse. Until the 1940’s, players were charged if they did not return their team equipment.
I want this to be real and properly tagged. If it is, I think there is no reason it cannot get to a high valuation. If it is not, the recent softness in the market might dictate a lower price.

Ha! No, just cut and pasted from their Site.

In April 2017 I won a Collegian Clothes advertising sign featuring a shot putter, from Grant in one of his non-sport auctions...I wasn't familiar with his auction house and I remember being a little surprised such a sign ended up way the heck in the far reaches of Washington state near Spokane...I had some questions about the sign and called them. I remember how remarkably pleasant everyone I spoke to was...First I talked to his wife then him directly...I remember when the rep called me during the auction so I could bid by phone...As the bidding escalated he seemed a bit surprised at the number of bids it was getting...as was I...I thought I would get it for practically nothing...figuring who but me would want a track sign...but someone else wanted it too...I still think I got a good deal though as it's one of the nicest track related signs I've seen and they are quite rare...especially a shot putter...below are a couple other track signs I have...
