Not Vintage, but I just bought a Piece of a Lifetime

It looks great, and if ole Skip can come over he's got a neat place to sleep.

The final result looks awesome. Great job! A great looking display, and a manly headboard to boot.

That looks pretty cool. Some pieces are so big it's difficult to figure out what to do with them. I bought these off ebay awhile back and still don't know what to do with them yet. They're the baseline pieces from the Wichita State Shockers basketball court. As you can see I'm missing some letters. I thought about framing them.

I need for him to come over and resign it. The auction company just sent him the one section for him to sign and he stood it up sideways and signed it. The guy in charge of the auctions was very apologetic about the way it was signed. He also said this is the one piece Skip regrets not keeping for himself but was glad it went to a LSU collector, and not some guy that will re-sale it for profit.

Speaking of Skip, he is (was) a big time vintage baseball collector. About five years ago, his house here in Baton Rouge burnt down, including so very rare baseball memorabilia. It was somewhere in the neighborhood of a $100,000 collection.
