Rivera signed bat I got in person at Tropicana Field circa 2000. Yankee pitchers were walking out from the bullpen I ran down to field level had Pettitte & Mendoza sign balls. Jerk face Clemens walked on by and Rivera came over and all I had left was the broken bat I just purchased from concessions . It is a Tatis Sr broken bat on top of it. Was a great experience!

We took our son to Spring Training in 2005 to see the Dodgers in Vero Beach and also the Mets. Mike Piazza is another jerk, just walking and goes to my son I'm working when my son asked for his autograph and ignored him. On the other hand Tom Glavine is a Gentleman my son had a ball gave it to Tom Glavine and then Tom Glavine gave him a better ball and signed it a Class Act. The Dodgers were better our son met Tommy Lasorda & Eric Gagne & just about everyone

This T206 Mathewson was part of a group of five 1910 era HOF cards I purchased (my first prewar cards) at the first table I stopped at during my first card show. They were all incredible, but of the five this is the one that my eyes always landed on the longest.

Decades later and I am still collecting these prewar papery goods, quite often in similar or lesser condition, thanks to Matty and friends.

Ahh, the ol' save from the fire question. All the stuff I have is stuff, except these:

My cousin's 1951 Topps Ringside card, signed, with a letter to a fan referencing the Ringside cards and the Topps Vault contract he signed authorizing his card





Doesn't get much better than that for me. Just for the heck of it, a few more images:
