I’m a longtime boxing collector, specializing in 1960s heavyweights. Probably 75% of my collection focuses on Canadian contender George Chuvalo, who peaked at No. 2 in the world rankings and is the only man who fought the “holy trinity” of Muhammad Ali (twice), Joe Frazier and George Foreman. I have on-site posters from 40 of Chuvalo’s 97 bouts, including six of the nine he headlined at Madison Square Garden, as well as programs from 50 of his bouts, a dozen of his contracts and hundreds of wire photos. Tickets, media passes, cards and promotional issues round out the collection — but I’m always looking for more.

That Hal Chase display is unreal. Really amazing. And nothing wrong with the Ruth’s or Wajo; however, regarding Johnson, I bet Val hasn’t posted yet bc he is still putting together all his Wajo and Senators stuff.
I collect Wagner and Cobb. Links to each https://www.flickr.com/photos/156271...57703230513722 https://www.flickr.com/photos/156271...57678533234258 Last edited by Rhotchkiss; 08-08-2020 at 07:45 PM. |

You are correct, it was the Dixie Premium salesman sample, not the lid. Sorry about that. Still a great piece! |

5 Homers in a DH!
While my collection pales in comparison to others, Nate Colbert is my guy.

Haven't heard his name in a while. What a beast he was. Powerful.

"I never had a bad day in baseball,” said the soft-spoken Colbert decades after retiring. “It was, I woke up, I wanted to go to the ballpark. I liked playing every day. I didn’t need an offday. I played with a bad back, broken toe, fractured wrist, and concussion. I played. I just played, because I figured I’m going to hurt anyway, so I might as well play.

Awesome collection! I see a lot of really tough Ruth cards there. I'm a two player collector (Ruth and Gehrig) although I collect some random small sets and singles too.

Not a large collection, but some interesting pieces. Got the record and the bat at the same time about 10+ years ago. Got the auto about 5 years ago, and just added the Musial card. I'd like to add a Hartland statue eventually.

Stan the Man is great to collect from a card perspective, as neither of his rookies really break the bank. His 48 Leaf is usually priced a little bit higher, than his 48 Bowman, from what I've seen. Both available in lower grades for under $1000

Ted Williams.
Finished playing before I was born. Finished managing before I got into baseball. But has been my childhood baseball hero since age 10. Have over 300 different cards and 500-600 items. To my knowledge, only 1 card that I have not seen/owned/own now and that is the 1949 Baas Cheri-Cola Ted Williams--(7 5/8" x 9 1/2", B&W, red ad back) Someone make my 2020 year better and post a scan.

Much like Steve, the OP, my collection centers on Lou Gehrig. I have all sorts of items, from cards, to original photos, autographs, and ither ephemera. He is even the reason i started to collect thev1934 Goudey set autographed. It is the "Lou Gehrig Says" set.
I collect other things as well, but he is the only individual player i focus on. The link below is to the flickr album with scans of most of my Gehrig collection. https://www.flickr.com/gp/96571220@N08/WZ1e4M Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

Trying to sell the majority of my collection. Decided to focus on a few players with the 20% that's left. Kept the Entire Lombardi items. Not everything is in there, I need to display an Orbit Gum pin, and the SF nodder needs to be a NYG nodder, but all in due time.
Other players I can focus on are Barry Larkin, Frank Robinson, Joey Votto, Tris Speaker, Stan Musial, and Cal Ripken. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using Tapatalk
