Hey guys!
I am primarily a Frank Thomas GU collector, but I've been trying to branch out since he retired. I had a chance to acquire a bunch of Morneau GU bats and thought that I'd share them with you guys (as I think you guys will appreciate them). I have a pair of auto'd GU red Franklin...
Happy Tuesday! For many, this is the first day of work in the new year, for others it's the same grind as usual. Either way, here's how I'm bringing in 2012 with some of my newest pick-ups over the last 2 weeks. As I've always said, when it rains it pours. Hope you enjoy.
First up is a pair...
Any news or update? Its not much fun posting to a board or sending pm's to collectors that don't respond. I would love to see some pics of that new bat of yours too :) All the best
So I finally finished y first site update. Approximately 30 albums added of some Thomas bats and other items. Check it out when you can. Have a lot more to add to it, including working on the descriptions for the items I just added. Couldn't wait to share it with everyone. Hope you like it...
I think they sold other fake items, but not necessarily the auto's. If I remember correctly they sold bogus Tiger Woods RC amongst other pieces of memorabilia with questionable purposes/intentions...items made to look like they were something they weren't.
...thats what I recall. I could be...
Sooooo, with the National coming to Baltimore and the announcement of an appearance by Frank Thomas, I was about as jazzed as I could be. Until I got a phone call for work in Detroit :evil: Now I'm bailing on two vacation plans and am spending the rest of my summer away from home. BUT I'm...
Well I'm glad to see that the National pics got posted and that everyone is in the know! I still don't know if I'm going to attend as I've got a family vacation planned for the day that he is appearing...perhaps I can put the trip off a day or two ::facepalm::
A couple of weeks ago I had...
I promise I'm not lying. I found out from another collector who forwarded me an email that he recieved. I'm down at the beach currently with no Internet just my iPhone. I get back this weekend and will post all the important flyers etcetera. I think big Frank I schedule to be there on...
Thomas is coming to the National in Baltimore. Just announced today!!!!!!!!!!!! Holy smokes Batman! Saturday...$99 for flats, $99 for photo op! It will be cool to meet the man...what should I take to get signed?
I do this too. I like to think that it helps me control the market...or helps when someone offers to buy it, "eh, I've got two but would only sell for what I paid". Inevitably it's stil just a rationalization for me to make a new Thomas purchase :) All that being said, scarcity and...
Here's my latest pick ups. I basically got lucky and stumbled onto a store that still had a bunch of wristbands from early in Big Franks career. This purchase was for 10 pair of GU wristbands, 6 long and 4 small. All came with Thomas signed COA's and all exhibit great use! Also included was...
MAIL DAY!!!
3 Pair of Big Franks Reebok wristbands. One pair from 1996. Two pair from 1995. They came complete with signed COA's. They all show really great use with loose threads galore! I'm very pleased to add these to the collection. Hope you enjoy 'em.
Thanks for the clarification guys...I greatly appreciate it. I've always been skeptical whenever I've seen an ungraded NNOF Thomas card as I know that fakes do exhist. One day I'll get me a NNOF...it doesn't have to be graded...I've only got like 3 or 4 grade cards in my collection. For high...
