I'm aware like probably everyone else of Keith Olberman's collection....what about anybody else with a public face? Anyone aware what type of collection Charlie Sheen has? I would assume George Will has one as well....anyone else? |

The "Mr. X" they refer to is a "celebrity" who had a collection of high grade T206 cards. He consigned the cards to a dealer on eBay and they got PSA to put "Mr. X Collection" on each slab. We never found out who he/she was, did we??? |

At every NY city show I used to see Joey Ramone walking around collecting cards, he was quite the collector/investor as far as I remember. |

I'm a little surprised Joey Ramone was collecting...can't imagine him with a drawer full of Ramly's. |

Penny Marshall ( Laverne & Shirley fame) had an awesome collection at one time. My dad bought several pieces from here years ago. I had heard she was going to sell off some of her memorabilia at one of the big auction houses but never really followed up on that. My dad got some great older Pittsburgh pieces from her collection. |

Don't know if these names are considered celebrities, but I've heard Hall of Fame catcher Gary Carter and ex-big league pitcher Tim Belcher have card collections. |

I bought a caramel card from an ebay seller that touted he was selling the collection of Gus Zernial. I don't know if I believe it. |

Tom Candiotti had some incredible cards. I heard he sold the whole collection as a single lot to one person recently. |

seems he had a "complete" collection of T206s, and even talked about how he kept them at home and loved to hold, look, smell, etc. just like a lot of us. |

Candiotti's collection was profiled a couple of years ago in PSA's Sports Market Report, and his goal is to acquire the highest grade possible of every card he collects. He has a 1954 Aaron PSA 10 and the PSA 8 Plank, among many others. I think he focusses more on modern cards where 9's and 10's are available. |

I used to see Steve Garagiola(Joe's son and a former sports anchor in Detroit) at all the card shows in the early 1980's. He had a LARGE collection at the time...he must have gotten the collecting bug from his Dad apparently. |

I would imagine some of the auction houses have secrets as to the big buyers...but can't disclose that information. Out of everybody listed Charlie Sheen I would suppose is the biggest known celebrity. |

I would think Penny Marshall is as big a celebrity as Charlie Sheen, but I'm not sure she collects cards so much as she collects memorablila. She is featured in Smithsonian Baseball. |

I thought Brad Pitt was Mr. X. Rumor was he would ride his bike around with PSA cards in the spokes. Ouch. I'm sure Angelina has put a kabosh on that. |

Why would celebrities hide their collections? I would think they could get more money if they sold pieces with their name attached to them... |

When I was a limo driver, I got to drive Penny Marshall on several occasions, as she is a Sacramento Kings fan and was often a guest of the Maloof's. She is a big baseball fan, but specializes in sheet music. She probably has the best collection of baseball and sports sheet music. |

it was actually Johnny Ramone. Most of his collection went to his wife, Linda, when he died a couple of years ago. I don't know if she has sold his collection off though. |
